Yesterday my SKIKK (Dutch Clevo brand) arrived!
It was a bit of a gamble to buy a laptop with not many reviews, also my first ever Clevo laptop for that matter.
Specifications
While the laptop is smaller and looks less "gamey" (I can take this into meetings now) it does feel a bit cheaper compared to my previous laptop (the MSI) because of the material used (plastic). It looks more like a fat business laptop than a gaming one. (which is a good thing)
Screen
The 240hz screen is so goddamn smooth it's ridiculous.
Performance
Performance is pretty insane, got 150-180 FPS running GTA V on Ultra (everything maxed out). Curious how RDR2 will perform.
Temperatures
Tested with GTA V running for 5 minutes (on an external 60hz 2560x1440 screen):
Will perform additional testing.
Other
The fingerprint scanner (had no idea it was gonna be there) actually works pretty well (would never choose to have this though)
I like that most of the ports are on the back as opposed to the sides.
I did notice that these fans go maximum to 4450 RPM (MSI can go to 5800 RPM)
Charger block doesn't have anti-slip pads. (so it's more likely to fall off your desk)
Sound is.. crap, which I actually don't mind since I'm never going to be using the speakers but the sticker about the audio tuning is ridiculous, don't put that sticker on a laptop if you know that the speakers are still shit. (MSI had an insane sound system with a subwoofer)
I'll post some pictures tonight.
This is a review after only 12 hours of ownership, of course I will continue adding information to this thread in the following days/weeks.
