Venom Blackbook 15

Clevo/Sager barebone under different system makers ;)

 

Meh, I wish there is a 1440p display rather than 2880 x 1620 :( 3K is just a bit too much for me

 

Ah, good to know, thanks.

 

Honestly, on a 15" display, I'd prefer native 1920x1080 (well, 1920x1200, but I haven't seen one with that yet). It's much more future-proof and with enough PPI as far as I'm concerned, heh.

You can build computers really well, not real good.

Just look at the 970M, I think it's a bit too powerful for 1080p ?

Yes I agree that it's more future-proof and it's a standard resolution

Thanks guys, you did crash the site :) at least it was a friendly take-down.

All resolved. Global pricing on this model is now ready, you can see that global pricing starts from $2199 USD, other models will be added as we move along.

Thanks for the interest.

The price is definitely too high for my taste, but it's a very nice laptop.

Don't ask to ask, just ask... please 🤨

The 3K is an option if you grab it from other sellers, not sure about amazon or the others. Also it's just a re-branded one that you can get else where. 1080p is available and I have to agree that 1440p would be the highest I would go on a laptop.

It's a nice laptop but for $3K I'm better off building a more powerful PC for half the price

Nice video as always, I did some digging and it seems the laptop is made by a taiwanese OEM called clevo.

I searched their page and found this which looks pretty similar.

ERROR: Printer out of white ink!

Hi there guys,

 

This laptop is a Clevo P64xSx which is also a Sager N8...(something :P) and an Eurocomm M5 I believe and actually this Venon! Heres a configurator of a clevo reseller here in Portugal:

http://www.clevocenter.com/index.php/config-15/p651-config.html

 

You can make your configuration as you want and check the price which in here is already a bit too much as the price with the specs +/- with the MSI GS60 3k it's a difference of 150€. You don't really need to know Portuguese!

 

This video made me want to buy this! Only the touchscreen missing and would be awsome if it was a 14 inch screen however.

Nice to see some other countries getting into the game. Venom is a good name considering that some of the most poisonous snake live in Australia.
