      • Andreu on 16/10/2012 - 14:07
        +1

        yes if they are all the same, why are some models priced so much more than others with the similar or lower spec?

        These are Quad core i7 with 2Gb graphics (dedicated). Compared to this:

        well not exactly apples to apple but I'm sure someone in here understands what I mean here…

        • YoursTruly101 on 16/10/2012 - 14:19

          What you put as link is a Toshiba ultra book and not a notebook, and I'm assuming you know ultra-books are here. Different category hence different prices.

        • opt on 16/10/2012 - 16:34

          Raw computing and graphics performance depend on few key components (i.e : CPU, GPU, RAM and HDD), as long as they are same, performance will be pretty much identical. But there are many other non performance related factors contributing to the cost of a notebook. To name a few :

          • quality of the display (IPS or TN panel),
          • build quality and materials used (Cheap plastics vs use of metals and premium plastics)
          • quality of the mainboard and other peripherals (Web cam, Power circuitry, cooling hardware, keyboard and touchpad, onboard audio and sound cards etc..)
          • Brand recognition & manufacturer's profit margins (Apple or Acer)
          • Emphasis on warranty (length and level of support),
          • Where its made,
          • Who is selling (Bing Lee or Harvey norman)
          • I’m sure you can think of few more…
    • Fuzor on 16/10/2012 - 12:40

      Well you are getting a jap brand laptop. Kinda similar to why people buy sony laptops at a massive premium

      • supersabroso on 16/10/2012 - 13:47

        The specs are there because of components made by Intel and NVIDIA, unless you think you're being scammed with fake parts then of course it'll perform.

      graphics card is slightly worse in this one, but on the plus side because its got Optimus (2 gfx cards) you'll get quite good battery life out of this.

      Im very tempted, but that res just won't cut it!

      • CVonC on 16/10/2012 - 15:36

        the sammy has switchable graphics too between it's ATI 7670 and Intel HD 4000 so you will also get good battery life

    Awesome deal.

    I got the Samsung NP350V5C-S02AU JB deal for $645 before the second price drop.

    I would have got this deal instead if I didn't jump the gun.

    Toshiba/Samsung NP350V5C-S02AU comparison:
    Both models have the same CPU
    1TB HDD in the Toshiba, 750GB HDD in the Samsung
    Same res for both
    8GB RAM in the Toshiba, 4GB RAM in the Samsung
    Better graphics card in the Toshiba(2GB dedicated), the Samsung's is 1GB dedicated.

    Worth the extra money anyday!

    It’s 2012… why are people still selling 1366 × 768 15" laptops!? My 5" phone screen is about that resolution. I realise it is personal preference, but I strongly urge anyone who isn’t fully aware of how ridiculous and horrible that resolution is to go check out a full HD 15" laptop first. The screen is going to be the primary thing you will notice and use on your laptop and you can’t just upgrade the screen later. Getting a better screen will be a significantly more important specification than processor or memory or hard drive size for the vast majority of people.

    • bezanel on 16/10/2012 - 16:15

      No disrespect, can u tell me where , which laptop I can get for $699 with high res screen and good specs.

      • FabMan_UK on 16/10/2012 - 16:55
        +1

        I'll take a small guess and say you can't. But unless the buyer is plugging this into a monitor it would be worth investing more money to get a higher resolution screen if they can afford it.

        5 years ago I bought a notebook with a screen better suited for viewing webpages, it can still do everything most people will need from a portable computer except play the latest games. Maybe the manufacturers should focus on lower CPU/GPU speeds and make the screens a higher resolution.

        I think portable computers should focus on battery life, keyboard/touch pad, weight, durability and screen resolution before CPU, GPU, RAM and HDD. Plus for notebooks SSD's should also be a big priority, it offers faster boot speeds but also the moving of a notebook around won't affect it as much.

        This is not targeted specifically at you bezanel, but I personally feel its a bit of a waste offering very high spec notebooks when you can't even see a some webpages clearly.

    • JxToF on 16/10/2012 - 16:51

      its not like people are going to watch a BLU RAY quality movie on a 15 inch laptop anyway right?

      • thei on 16/10/2012 - 16:53

        More to the point, you can’t really do much of anything on something that low res. Try editing multiple documents? Viewing complex web pages? Viewing two web pages at once… it’s just very low.

        • peterpeterpumpkin on 16/10/2012 - 22:20

          I found 2 abandoned laptops (maybe 14in 4:3 screens) on the street last week in working condition. Both of them supported 1600 x 1200 resolution, with the older laptop (with a floppy drive :))dating back to 2001. While laptops generally look, feel, weigh and cost a lot cheaper these days, I admit it does feel a bit weird begging for vertical resolutions that were provided over a decade ago.

          The sore point for a lot of buyers is that laptops are cheap enough now that they're the first choice of computer for a lot of consumers, and the modern house is becoming desktop free. I've worked in offices where temps are given laptops (and sore necks) as standard - as its much easier to setup a desk with a laptop and store them away later.

          So while I understand why people say "why would you do work on laptop?" the reality is a lot of people do that need more than 720 (Adobe After Effects etc) but also have limited budgets. I personally had never used 1600 x 1200 in the old days anyway because I found it way too small (kinda like looking at my desktop from a plane :)).

    This refurbished notebook has a screen resolution of 1600 x 900 and going for $668 USD.

    I've been trying but can't find low cost notebooks with a higher resoltion than 1366x768. Since they are not available in Oz I guess this deal is a great price.

      My apologies if this isn’t appropriate here, but if you are looking for refurbished laptops, check out Grays Online. People such as Sony use them to sell their refurbished gear. Obviously it isn’t new and may be scratched or damaged and you forfeit a proper warranty, but it is of course also cheaper than new.

      • davidl2 on 16/10/2012 - 17:59

        really shouldn't compare refurbished laptops to normal/new laptops
        my experience? avoid refurbished laptops!

        • thei on 16/10/2012 - 18:03

          Yes, of course: please don’t compare new to old. One is new with warranty etc., the other you take your chances with (or have short 3 month warranty or similar). However, if one can’t pay more than $600 or so and wants a higher resolution screen, refurbished may be the best (or perhaps only?) option.

      • FabMan_UK on 16/10/2012 - 18:44

        That website is a good suggestion, I found:

        Sony VAIO™ E Series 1600 x 900 for $629.

        If purchased, buy a notebook cooler pad, stress test everything for 3 days solid, and if there are scratches buy one of those high quality notebook stickers and try to make it look trendy.

    To all I agree with the res, I played the sample videos a bit choppy but I watch movies on HD TV. But for pictures , I am satisfied with res.

    May I know why the HP M6 for $645 is better deal than the Samsung $577 deal from Bing Lee last week? The only difference is the graphic card (HP has 2gb dedicated ram vs Samsung has 1gb dedicated ram). Both appear to use the same ATI 7670m graphic card.

    • CVonC on 17/10/2012 - 00:44

      M6 has a 7760M not 7670M.. much better video card for gaming.

    • Phoebus on 17/10/2012 - 15:50

      HP has much better build with shiny aluminium. HP has way better speakers (this Toshiba deal seems to have pretty good speakers too). I suppose you did have to pay an extra $70 for that but worth it imo. Better than having to lug usb speakers around everywhere.

    I don't like Bing Lee!

    7 days after ordering an "in stock" laptop Bing Lee still haven't even sent it from their warehouse!!

    They inform me that they are waiting for Toshiba, and can give me no estimate on when they will dispatch the laptop. On a side note they were very quick to charge my credit card!

    I had to initiate all contact with Bing Lee! If I wanted this level of service I would've ordered from shopping square!

      Hmmm…I ordered a laptop online with Credit card from them, and 2 days later my laptop arrived. Think you just got unlucky. My experience so far with them has been good, I even called them up for a refund on postage which I received the following day without any problems.
