Hello, I am buying a PC for school in January but I also wanted it for leisure as well. I went to the CyberPowerPC website to buy my laptop since that's where i got my desktop from. I noticed they were having a pre- black friday sale and I wanted to see what I could get, as well as compare other sites. I came to the conclusion of this build FANGBOOK 4 SX6-100 build, which is on sale for $300 off at $1260 and finally goes down to $1197 (with $0 tax and free shipping) after a 5% off Black Friday code.

I was curious if this was a good buy w/ the computer and accessories at this price. Also, I could not find an estimation for average battery life on this specific laptop, so if anyone knows this, could you please let me know as well? I'm planning to buy this this weekend.

Thank you.
 
A system with an i7 CPU, 960m video card and a 150w charger will nto have good battery life. I'd say 2-3 hours of use (non-demanding like movie watching, not gaming). Specs are in line with the price, maybe a bit on the lower side so not a bad buy.

Don't know enough about the brand to talk about reliability, it's likely a Clevo rebrand or something along those lines.
