So how do you guys like the design? Hopefully the lighting on the "glamour" shot, looks nice lol.

 

Is the HDMI sticker good or unnecessary? Are the audio jacks well placed? Overall aesthetics?

 

We're thinking about making the touchpad bigger, yay or nay? 

 

All feedback and criticism is cherished.

 

Thanks!

Looks decent, Personally I like the audio jacks on a laptop to be further up on the body so that I can carry it around and not destroy my headphone plugs by accident.

 

Also, what is this for?

Very nice indeed. Nice hinges! Although a larger touchpad would be nice.

Looks very elegant, bit thick though.

I hope it has a 1080p screen.

I'd say the HDMI sticker is a little unnecessary and I'd prefer the audio jacks a little further back, hoping the display is IPS or PLS and is either 1080p or 2560 x 1440 / 1600

I would say make the touchpad a lot larger and make it an actual good quality one. a poor trackpad really makes the experience suffer a lot.

And second, I prefer a glass layer on top of my screen. (i prefer the glossy look) and it adds a more better quality look than the plastic bezel and direct screen

any rear usb's? that would be a nice feature to have as a addition. 

larger Touchpad would also be better like said before. 

 

and i doubt your going to get a laptop with cherry keyswitches as they take more room up.

Larger Touchpad with integrated buttons would be nice. Make sure it's centered too.

The HDMI logo on the deck is a bit out of place too. A clean look would be better.

Some more images of different angles, lid closed, scale comparison, internals and such too would be appreciated :) This is a tech forum after all so Nerd Pr0n is always welcome! :D

Rear USB are pretty much useless in my mind. It makes less room for cooling.

You should make sure there is a vga port if its being used in an office environment. A lot projectors still only have vga or rca.

There will be different models. They will all be based around this exterior design though.

We're an aspiring tech company. We're kind of different because at the same time we're also a team xD

Now the problem with blues is fitting it in there. Something like reds would be the only MX we might be able to fit in there.

Maybe ML?

We're not Razer, we don't sink lower than HD resolutions.

 

Your feedback is much appreciated!
