New wine - old wineskin? Nexoc takes a tried-and-true Clevo barebone and packs top-of-the-line hardware into a familiar chassis. What could go wrong?

77% Nexoc M512 III (Clevo W650RC) (i7, GTX 950M) Notebook Review

Resurrected: Scene one, take two. It seems this 15-inch computer offers everything a gamer could wish for, including a sizeable SSD alongside a terabyte of hard drive space. Read on to find out why our reviewer still wasn't satisfied with the device.

Schenker XMG A706 (Clevo N170RD) Notebook Review

86% Schenker XMG A706 (Clevo N170RD) Notebook Review

Better thanks to Skylake. Although the new Skylake processor in Schenker's XMG A706 only results in a marginal performance increase compared with the XMG A705, the laptop comes with lower power consumption and longer battery runtimes owing to it improved energy efficiency.

Face Off: Dell Inspiron 15 5558 vs. Lenovo Z51 70 vs. Acer Aspire V3 574G

Lenovo B70-80 80MR0006GE

77% Lenovo B70-80 80MR0006GE Notebook Review

More than mediocre? The less expensive devices from Lenovo in particular often got a very mediocre rating in the recent past; the author was obviously disappointed by the B50-80. So does the "bigger sibling" B70-80 perform better? The situation seems to be better with a powerful i5 CPU and dedicated Nvidia GPU.

77% HP Pavilion 15-ab052ng Notebook Review

Price-performance smasher? HP promises that its exceptional multimedia laptop, Pavilion 15, can boast among others, with a Full HD screen and plenty of storage for a price less than 500 Euros (~$568). However, closer inspection shows shortcomings in the 15-inch device.

Asus Transformer Book Flip TP500LA Convertible Review

73% Asus Transformer Book Flip TP500LA Convertible Review

Middle-class convertible. The predecessors' displays didn't exactly impress because of their low resolution and subpar brightness. Asus improved the Transformer Book Flip somewhat in that regard, but the new convertible is still decidedly average. We'll explain why in the following review.

78% Lenovo Ideapad 100S Notebook Review

Windows 10 netbook. Lenovo proves that you don't need to have fancy convertibles or detachables to make a good netbook. While a healthy number of features had to be cut, the super-light Ideapad 100S is a bargain for just under $200.

83% Schenker XMG P706 (Clevo P671RG) Notebook Review

Gentle evolution. Schenker sends its new XMG P706 into the race with efficient Skylake processors, modern DDR 4 memory and other minor modifications. Otherwise, compared with its precursor, the slim 17-inch device has hardly changed - and that is a good thing.

Asus Zenbook UX305LA (Core i7) Subnotebook Review

88% Asus Zenbook UX305LA (Core i7) Subnotebook Review

Well done, Asus. Until recently, Asus has been using Core M processors in their Zenbook UX305 models. However, the manufacturer now has greater aspirations. By adding new Core i7 processors to the series, Asus hopes to compete with the MacBook Air 13. Even with its stronger CPU, the Zenbook's battery life has improved. It just goes to show that in the wrestling ring of the computer world, sometimes it is not a disadvantage for a battery to put on some weight.

77% Lenovo Z51-70 (Radeon R9 M375) Notebook Review

Mixed feelings. Lenovo's newcomer wants to qualify for the multimedia division with its mid-range graphics card but blunders in terms of screen and sound. The keyboard might disappoint users who value good office qualities. However, most other traits, and primarily the performance, are very compelling.
