Dare I say spec wise this is quite possibly the best laptop deal you will find. For £387 there is not a better deal - only caveat being this is a Grade C laptop with only a 6 month warranty.

I've bought a Grade B one with 1 year warranty, and it has been running smoothly so far. There are some minor issues though, as this is essentially an OEM laptop from Quanta which Chillblast, fairly reputable prebuilt manufacturer, orders it from.

The laptop I recieved has no branding, and the power adapter was a generic replacement which had the wrong kettle lead supplied. Support sorted it out quickly though. On the first day I had some issues with the trackpad and keyboard, some random ghost touches and double presses, but after a reboot and a couple days it just fixed itself.

Other than that, I've had no issues so far. For anyone wanting to know the SSD and RAM are both upgradable, and there is a spare M.2 slot with a screw included.

Product specifications:
  • Intel Core i7-12700H CPU
  • GeForce RTX 3050 Ti Graphics
  • 16GB DDR4 3200MHz RAM
  • 1TB Samsung 980 SSD
  • 1080P, 144Hz, 15.6" IPS Screen
  • Bluetooth
  • USB 3.1
  • Windows 11 Home operating system

    One more thing I should mention, the battery life on this laptop is pretty crap. It's only 51.28Wh, with the Grade B I recieved having 49.2Wh usable. I got about under 2 hours of use doing some light Adobe Illustrator work. More reputable manufacturers should last at least double that, but as I plug it in mostly it's not a concern to me.

    Laptop is charged with a regular barrel jack, it has a USB-C port which charges my iPhone about as fast as the standard 20W charger, no idea if it really is PD charging though.

    Grade c= clumsy and possibly from someone with worst hygiene possible on top of defects.
