Question 1

Is it true about the screenbled on this laptop?

Accepted Answer

Yes, there is a little screen bleed at the bottom of this monitor (not noticeable unless you have completely black/dark screen).  I own the 1080 IPS screen version, not 4K version.  I would say the screen looks okay.  It is not a retina display, if that is what you are asking.  If you want retina display, then you will need to buy an Apple or Dell XPS laptop for double the price.  But for the price difference, I would buy a Dell UltraSharp U2414H monitor instead and attach it to this laptop.  Unless you are doing photo or video editing, I would say this screen looks pretty good, but not great.  It looks better than a cheap TN panel, but not as good as retina display.  The track pad does suck, so get a mouse.

I primarily consider this laptop as a portable desktop replacement.  I benchmarked it and it is slightly slower than 2 year old my Dell XPS 8500 i7 desktop (maybe 5-10% slower), but you can’t feel it.  I don't game, but use it for programming.

I added a Samsung EVO M.2 250 Gb harddrive, and it boots Windows 10 super fast in seconds.   I highly recommend it if you are looking for a budget portable desktop replacement.

Question 2

Can i change SHDD to new SDD for this? i want to change to SamSung pro SSD

Accepted Answer

yes, that is actually what I did.  It actually has a M.2 sata slot for SSD.  It is the same price as the regular 2.5" sata SSD.  I added a 500GB M.2 SSD and leave the original 1TB HDD as a storage.  I even added 8GB more memory as it was only used one slot for 8GB.

I love this laptop.  The only down side is the fan is keep rolling crazy.  I reading through the threads to see if there is a way to turn it low.

Regards,

Evan

Question 3

is it touch screen??

Accepted Answer

My version is not a touch screen.  I use a wireless mouse and the laptop keyboard.

Question 4

can i upgrade ssd on this computer?

Accepted Answer

Yes you can! This laptop supports both 2.5 inch SSD as well as the new M.2 style SSDs. I put a 500GB Samsung Evo in mine and kept the 1tb for storage.

Keep in mind if you do that make sure to buy an M.2 style SSD.

Best,

Ryan

Question 5

What speed/brand RAM does this have installed? I'd like to upgrade.

also- is there a bonus to installing two ram sticks from the same manufacturer or is it just the interface and the speed that matters?

Accepted Answer

This laptop comes with a single stick of 8GB DDR3L (Low power low profile laptop memory) and has one open RAM slot.
Manufacturer does not matter when it comes to RAM, as long as they are the same type (DDR3L). Many computers can even handle different speed sticks of RAM and automatically underclock the faster one to match the slower, but this is not recommended in any computer. Try to get a second stick of the same speed as well. Unfortunately the speed of RAM in this model is not set, so you would have to check it when it arrives.

Question 6

is this quadcore??

Accepted Answer

hq suffix in processor means that  it is quadcore

Question 7

Hello, can this laptop use PCIe m.2 ssd? like this one ? Samsung 950 PRO Series - 512GB PCIe NVMe - M.2 Internal SSD (MZ-V5P512BW). If not, what is the best ssd I can add to this laptop?

Accepted Answer

No. This laptop uses a laptop SATA connection. I have a Samsung 950 Evo in mine and it works great!

Question 8

How many years of life expectancy do you guys expect from this laptop? Do you think I will be able to play modern games in 4-5 years with this laptop?

Accepted Answer

The processor should be good to last at least 5 years. Depending upon the games you're playing, memory would be key. This configuration has 8GB of memory, but there's also dedicated memory for graphics with the NVIDIA card. So, I would venture yes. You could also check to see how much memory can be put into this laptop by checking Kingston's website. It's possible you could be 2 8GB DIMMS in for a total of 16GB.

Question 9

Does this laptop contain a TPM chip?

Accepted Answer
