This laptop in the uk is costing £485.00 with free postage and packing and I am wondering what do you think of this notebook do you think for £485.00 is good value or do you think I should save more and buy another laptop?

Do you think for the price £485.00 do you think I should buy this?
I am thinking of buying it as its thin got 9 hour battery and 940MX for light encoding like for YouTube video. Is their anything better for the same price rage?

Sounds too good to be true.

External GPU and still 9 hours batt life? I bet that 9 means at idle.

GPU if it has any umph, will run hot, hope you don't mind a little heat and (fan to cool it) noise.

At least the review mentioned flex, first thing that popped into my head when I read Chinese and thin. Personally I can't deal with that unless this thing is gonna be desk bound all day.
