This model seems to be on offer at a number of retailers, but for some reason it's currently several hundred less than the normal price. The same version but with a 1080p non-touch screen is £1500.
It's obviously a lot of cash when you compare it to a bog-standard 15" laptop (the likes of which are ten a penny on these pages), but it is a MUCH higher spec along with being fanless, as light as a netbook, having a very quick SSD, super high res touch screen, metal chassis, etc.

Is this the same model?
Seems like a good buy. Interested to see what everyone thinks
Yes, but they also charge an additional 2.5% if paying by credit card.

I saw the price with them, but I have a feeling that Laptops Direct charge for delivery.

If it's touch screen it really should have a 360° hinge. Touchscreen makes no sense otherwise.

I disagree, use touch screen on my computer very often (mainly to scroll or click, it becomes natural) and never (or hardly ever) use the tablet mode so I wouldn't need a machine with a 360 hinge

The latest gen Dell XPS 13 is the main rival I think, but you're looking at an extra £150 ish.
