    I got one from itzoo (8gb) a few months ago for £150 and am pleased with it.

    I added a second nvme in the wan slot instead. You need a b+m keyed 2242 m.2. Western digital or KingSpec (I got a 512gb) do them.

    Also upgraded my WiFi to an ax210 for £10, I have 900mbps Internet though so probs not worth it for most. (edited)

    good deal I got the 8GB RAM version and only complaint is is it could do with the extra RAM (its soldered). Very nice machine and this is silly cheap.

    Wish this came in a bigger screen size. 14/15" would be 👌🏻

    If you want a bigger size a T480 or T480s is ideal (14” and similar spec to this) or T580 (15”)

    Very decent laptop, but mind you it's a compact one at 12.5". Weights almost nothing yet quite powerful

    How is it when I post a laptop deal from an eBay company it gets removed but these ones don’t

    Could be the seller's ratings. Happened to me too in the past.

    It makes sense, HUKD is a big community and otherwise scammers would post their junk easily. Sadly it does penalise small sellers

    Got mine - looks decent and worth the money.

    Thank you @ gallopingkoala I ordered as can't argue with the price including WIN11, 16g Ram. Hopefully, I get one with decent battery life. Does anyone have experience of the screen quality please?

    Well, it ain't an OLED/MacBook Pro so best tame your expectations on that front. That being said, mine was fairly decent. Certainly all good for office work and media

    Ordered, thanks OP!

    Amazing price for a decent spec, decent brand machine with Win11 support. Heat!
  15. plewis00's avatar
    The 16GB variant for this price is good as the RAM is fixed and can’t be upgraded. Don’t think much of the seller though - see previous threads why.

    Excluding the retailer, cannot fault the price of spec.

    Do these have the stickers on keys or genuine UK machine.

    Damn! I was just about to buy!

    I've got two of the 8GB versions, amazing laptops. Did a double take when I saw 16GB, as this has soldered RAM and the upgrade was megabucks at the time this model was introduced with most corporates therefore opting for the 8GB version. eBay is flooded with the 8GB version.
    £127 is a joke price with the Full HD screen, consider yourselves very lucky if you managed to nab one!! (edited)

    They've relisted this at £199 - with 20% off that's £160... which is the price this was without the voucher.

    Dodgy as... unless eBay force the seller to take the hit on these offers?
    Edit: Actually that one is an i7 with a 1366x768, this is an i5. The CPU benchmarks seem to be better for the i5!?

    I think I'll hang onto my X270 for now. (edited)
