It's a very nice display. Mine arrived today.
First impressions
Lovely build quality, doesn't feel budget or anything compared to my Alienware 13
Very very nice keybaoard, nice and bouncy with great lighting
Screen has v good viewing angles. I had to double check it wasn't IPS so your comment makes sense. Matt display so no glare
Speakers not as beefy as I wanted give it's 2.1 sound. Need to play with settings more I think.
Games, ultra 1080p 60fps...it's a GTX 1060 so it doesn't break a sweat on Skyrim Special Edition, Star Wars Battlefront or MGS V I tested. Feels like I need to plug into 4K to to really test its legs out
V v happy with the laptop
Edit: fan noise, near total silence when the GTX is idle and its using the I5 integrated is a HD 530. During gameplay the fans are audible up to 60% system volume.
Back to build quality, this feels like my Alienware. It has that tactile soft touch feel and feels so solid. Time will tell how it lasts but for me if you hid the brand I wouldn't say it was a budget machine

Why are you mentioning Aldi?! Should we talk about Tesco and Asda too?!

Seems like a great deal, heat added. Only thing putting me off buying is I have no idea who the company is and can't find any reviews for the product

medion have been around forever, they are a generic computer company like dell.
I owned a gaming laptop from them several years ago. Had it for a couple of years before selling and upgrading to a desktop. Overall it was very good quality for the price paid and I would use them again given my positive experience.
Yeah even this model is £1049 at Currys, then its jump up to about £12-1300 for next cheapest.
I ama guessing the 1060 laptop chip version is worth about £300-350 so with Quidco this is a great price.
The 1060 outperforms the old GTX 980m

I'm sorely tempted, that's a superb price for a GTX 1060 laptop. Suspicious that it may have a TN screen though.
Where's the cost been cut? The only negative I can see is that the battery life is pathetic (3-4 hours...and usually a companies estimates are exaggerated) and that's it quite heavy, which shouldn't be a big deal.
IPS Screen possibly?. Cant imagine you will get a better laptop anywhere for the specs/price.

Would like to hear your feedback if you feel like sharing here.
I have bought several desktops from Medion (Quidco and price tipped it for me also).. good products still going strong. One time had to Email about delivery because channel tunnel had delays due to holiday rush, Medion were excellent returning replies.
Never purchased a laptop and would like to hear some hands experience.

cracking deal OP!

I've been unable to find a specific review for this laptop however you're likely to find reviews for others within the series that use similar components (and most of them will use the same chassis) http://www.notebookcheck.net/Medion-Erazer-X7847-MD60342.180914.0.html
I ama guessing the 1060 laptop chip version is worth about £300-350 so with Quidco this is a great price.
The 1060 outperforms the old GTX 980m
IPS screen apparently.
I'm suspicious of how they've got the price down so low. It's at least a 200-300+ saving before you even include Cashback, which then makes it £400~.
CPU, good.
RAM, decent.
GPU, great.
Screen, brilliant.
Storage, not bad.
