Hi all, was reading this review on Anandtech and noticed the notebook is currently on sale at GearBest.

Seems like a pretty decent price for a 'Retina' display home/office/commute notebook, and all aluminium construction. Can add an M.2 SSD for more storage. Comes with Windows 10 Home and no bloatware. Clearly not a well known brand, however for the price it looks to be relatively good specifications. Specs per GB:

Intel Celeron Processor N3450 Quad Core 1.1GHz, up to 2.2GHz
Ultra-low-voltage platform and quad-core processing provide maximum high-efficiency power. Intel Turbo Boost Technology delivers dynamic extra power when you need it

12.3 inch IPS Screen with 2736 x 1824 Resolution
Offering good experience for watching videos and browsing the Web. The 2736 x 1824 resolution screen boasts impressive high-quality images

6GB DDR3 RAM for Advanced Multitaskingd
Substantial high-bandwidth RAM offers you a high-impact gaming experience, ensures smooth operation and stable multitasking using feeling

64GB eMMC Storage Capacity
Provides room to store pictures, videos, music and more

Perhaps a nice option for the parents to check your Facebook holiday snaps in the least! Fairly good reviews around online, main drawback seems to be the name, and the not-so-attractive bezel.

    • 87percent on 08/09/2017 - 13:06

      why is "Minecraft" in ""?? is that code for porn?

      • scud70 on 08/09/2017 - 13:30

        pixel porn… Leisure Suit Larry x286 days… lol

      • RedSky on 08/09/2017 - 13:40

        It's a play on the age old "Can it play Crysis?"

    • seb on 08/09/2017 - 13:59

      Let me rephrase that.

      Can this laptop play Minecraft acceptably? I am interested in it for a young child. A Windows laptop but without spending hundreds.

      • feral on 08/09/2017 - 14:26

        Yes on low settings and probably not at the resolution the display is capable of.

      • pennypincher98 on 08/09/2017 - 14:26

        The processor is crippling for playing Minecraft. But if they don't mind it being laggy af, I guess what is there to lose besides your sanity!

        Regular Java Minecraft would probably be terrible on this machine. On the other hand, the newer Windows 10 edition of Minecraft is much better optimized and might be acceptable on this laptop (if you are happy to use the Windows 10 edition).

    Punch it Chuwi!

      hahahaha plus 1 from me… that cracked me up

    This laptop confuses me. A reasonable 6gb ram, great resolution and ability to install SSD that won't be able to be taken advantage of due to the Celeron N3050 processor - it is almost constantly at 100% doing web searches and word processing. Not even much.

    • AlienC on 09/09/2017 - 10:24

      Low powered engine trying to haul a semi trailer.

        If web searching and word processing is a semi trailer load, what kind of task is considered light?

        • pennypincher98 on 09/09/2017 - 15:48

          Exactly! If a website can't even load a webpage or type a document, what is its use? I'm not exactly doing 3D gaming or 4K video editing on here, not even streaming/playing videos.

        • AlienC on 09/09/2017 - 17:42

          @pennypincher98: holy smokes I looked up your cpu and I am just dumbfounded. Lol what can you actually do on your machine lol?

        • pennypincher98 on 09/09/2017 - 18:04

          @AlienC: OzBargain :)
          But honestly? Not much else.

  • safrane on 09/09/2017 - 10:52

    Laptop is down to US$280 @ Banggood.
