I was scouring the internet, mainly Alibaba and sites like that. I have come across a plethora of cheap gaming laptops, claiming to be the OEM maker of X laptop, selling them at a cheap price. They are definitely not the OEM maker because there are more than 1 person who sells the same laptop, and there are not 2 OEMs of one product.

 

Have any of you bought this. If you have, are they legit? (i'm a broke student) If you haven't, do you have any information on what these could be? The ratings are also all over the place

I have attached an example.

it is sadly fake. if you want a 699$ laptop you could get somethink like this 

 it is posted on #Hotdeals. and if you dont have money get used or grab a awesome deal like this and don't buy from sketchy sellers on a sketchy website. and from  my limited search online duos ASUS ZenBook Pro Duo 15 OLED UX582 (12900H-32GB-3070TI)COST 3000$ (also its a creator laptop not a gaming laptop)

See if you can find it on the Asus website.

Have you tried turning it off and on again? Maybe Restart it?

Take everything I say with a grain of salt. I could be just about wrong as I am right.

Anybody selling a top spec Asus Zenbook Duo for $600-$900 is scamming you. That's a $2200-$3000 laptop depending on the configuration.

That laptop from Asus goes for 2x to 3x. Its a scam

 

If its to good to be true then its 99.99999% of the time a scam.

 

Whats your budget and what does it need to do?

Budet is 500-700$. Have no problem buying it used, in fact i prefer it for better hardware. I am going into engineering so a laptop with 3050 and a cpu with at least 4 cores/ preferably 6 is what i am lookin for. Also, im in europe so sites like newegg are not available.
