Reviews for the Gigabyte U24T

60% Nice Ultrabook With An Atrocious Display
Source: Digital Versus Archive.org version
The U24T is Gigabyte's vision of the 14" ultrabook. The Gigabyte U24T is a good-looking ultrabook with quality components that perform well, but all of this is compromised by a simply horrific display. There's no way we can give it more than three stars with a screen this bad.

70% Gigabyte U24T-CF1

There's a lot to like about the Gigabyte U24T-CF1. It uses the latest Intel Core i7 processor to deliver strong productivity performance, and its 10-point touch screen display allows you to take full advantage of the Windows 8 touch experience. When your work day is done, you can enjoy relatively smooth gaming action thanks to its Nvidia GT750M graphics solution. Our only gripes with this ultrabook are screen related; its 1,366 by 768 resolution is too low for a laptop in this price range, and off-angle viewing is subpar. If display quality is a deal breaker, check out the Samsung Book 9 Plus or the MacBook Pro 13 (2013), both of which have earned our Editors' Choice for high-end ultraportable laptops.

Comment

NVIDIA GeForce GT 750M: Upper mid-range graphics card of the GeForce GT 700M series. Based on the Kepler architecture and manufactured by TSMC in a 28nm process.

Modern games should be playable with these graphics cards at low settings and resolutions. Casual gamers may be happy with these cards.

Intel Core i7: The Intel Core i7 for laptops is based on the LG1156 Core i5/i7 CPU for desktops. The base clock speed of the CPUs is relatively low, but because of a huge Turbo mode, the cores can dynamically overclock to up to 3.2 GHz (920XM). Therefore, the CPU can be as fast as high clocked dual-core CPUs (using single threaded applications) but still offer the advantage of 4 cores. Because of the large TDP of 45 W / 55 W, the CPU is only intended for large laptops.  

4500U:

Haswell-based ULV dual-core processor clocked at 1.8 GHz with Turbo Boost support up to 3.0 GHz. Offers an integrated HD Graphics 4400 and a dual-channel DDR3 memory controller.

14.00":

There are hardly any tablets in this display size range anymore. For subnotebooks, on the other hand, it is the standard format.

The advantage of subnotebooks is that the entire laptop can be small and therefore easily portable. The smaller display also has the advantage of requiring less power, which further improves battery life and thus mobility. The disadvantage is that reading texts is more strenuous on the eyes. High resolutions are more likely to be found in standard laptops.

Gigabyte: Gigabyte Technology is a Taiwanese computer hardware manufacturer founded in 1986, best known for its motherboards and graphics cards. Gigabyte offers a wide range of products including motherboards, graphics cards, laptops, monitors, systems and components. Gigabyte's laptops offer gaming and creative features on the go. Gigabyte monitors offer 4K Pro Gaming.

67%: This rating is poor. More than three quarters of the models are rated better. That is rather not a purchase recommendation. Even if verbal ratings in this area do not sound that bad ("sufficient" or "satisfactory"), they are usually euphemisms that disguise a classification as a below-average laptop.
