A few deals on the i7 version of the G5 but couldn't find a deal for the i5 other than when it was £399 with a free 8" tablet worth £40 (now expired). For those who don't want or need a tablet you can get the laptop for £50 less. I thought it was a fairly decent spec for the money (note: no dvd drive). I'd prefer Windows 7 too rather than W10

This looks great but I just wish it was smaller and lighter though! I'm having a really hard time finding something light that has the power and speed of this type of laptop :disappointed:

Snap, weight isn't too bad compared to others as it's under 2kg. The screen is a bit of a let down though as it's 1366 x 768 but for this money it's not a bad buy for some.

Been keeping an eye on this for a while and tempted but the no Full HD worries me. The i3 that is about here for approx 300 quid with 4gb 256 SSD with full HD is what I'm also considering. How is the screen on this?

I have a laptop with a 1366 x 768 screen, and I strongly recommend getting something better. I only use mine occasionally, but it would drive me mad if it were my main computer.

I just bought this laptop and the screen quality isn't fantastic. The colour is not comparable to say, the Lenovo 310. The picture seems overly bright which doesn't improve when you play with the settings. Part of the problem may be a lack of a dedicated gpu. The laptop is fast though. And good price for the specs. Ssd makes a huge difference and for doing office based work it's very suitable.

Nothing wrong with ebuyer, just avoid any product from HP, 10 years IT experience, that's all

Completely agree with this, (25 years IT). HP used to be a great company when it just did printers and mid-range computers.

I'm looking for a laptop around this spec, my last one has just died. Probably will need to purchase within the next 2 weeks. I'd prefer amazon as i have vouchers but i'll end up using them anyway so its not essential. Is the screen really that noticeable? I am to use it mainly for watching netflix and movies, maybe the occasional game of civ V. Worth purchasing or should i wait?

It's now 30 quid cheaper. Don't worry too much once you've been using a full HD IPS screen these things are noticeable, but it's not a big issue
