Pretty boring really, just stuck inside a laptop, they don't get out much.

Excellent offer, heat!

i7 is quite a low end one (all U series are), but if you're after a 12.5" laptop, you're going to be pretty limited anyway.

"Coming with Windows 7 Professional Edition 64-bit Operating System installed, along with Windows 8 Professional 64-bit as a Recovery/Downgrade, whatever operating system you prefer to use, the choice is yours."

I love how they consider Windows 8 to be a downgrade :smile:

What's the battery life like, anyone know??

around 7-8hr with normal use. there are plenty of reviews available. check them.

thx :smiley: my birthday present

Great deal! Really wish this thing had thunderbolt 3 instead of OneLink, I probably would've bought at 1200 if it did!

performs worst than my 5 years old quad core 2630, I regret when bought U series laptop for my gf

Would never but anything from them shysters again.

u series r not so bad. depending what you're using laptop for. but anyway something for something better battery life for a bit less performance.

my u6200 takes only 16watt on 30Wh battery ot can easily stay more than 4hrs. you won't be able to make it on normal i5.

I think it's unacceptable for a £700 laptop to only have 8gb ram.

Mine arrived yesterday and I have next business day on-site warranty until 2018.

recived it today :smiley: so happy , sent request to update warranty to:)

Is it easy to replace the 256 GB SSD with another 1 TB SSD in this laptop?

Is the keyboard backlit?

​yes I'm very happy with the purchase. Keyboard is backlit and joy to type. Fan is not noisy. Above all build quality is excellent. Sound from speakers are flat but didn't expect miracles from tiny speakers.

Thanks, looks like it can be replaced fairly easily.

Thanks for the feedback.

Sure, but such as in my case,16GB can be essential when you are using it as a research laptop. (tend to use ram heavy macros/techniques a lot.)
