I've seen this laptop featured before, and it's worth a quick note that this is almost certainly a demo unit. It's a smattering of things that the factory wants to show off along with the cheapest possible hardware to run it for a demo. They want to demonstrate the high end keyboards and screens they can work with, custom circuitry for the webcam, and some options on how it can be put together. The truth is, this is a super impressive demo unit. I have very little doubt that if I went to the factory and gave them specs for a laptop I wanted to sell that they would be able to execute on it and produce a quality product.

I bought one, this laptop sucks. Fan noise is very bad. The keyboard is good for a laptop but nowhere near as good as an external mechanical keyboard--and look at the small right shift key. The touchpad is very small and way off center. The "palmrest" is too narrow to rest your palms on. The GPU can't handle 1440p60fps KZbin videos (forget about 4k videos). The display is excellent. Mine did not have a problem with excessive speaker volume. They could have made this laptop fanless, or at least they could have been way less aggressive about the fan kicking it at low temps. I wish mainstream PC makers would make a fanless light laptop with an excellent keyboard and screen for regular office tasks like web browsing, Excel and Word, etc. At least they should include fan control software like gaming laptops; my son can make his G14 fanless with the software ASUS provides, to extend his battery and keep the noise down while in class.

@@dr.nigelcool3771 What's important to remember is that this isn't a laptop designed to be used, it's designed to demonstrate features. The processor is very weak, so low performance is to be expected. I would think you should be able to configure the fans with a generic fan control software though.

A 37dB increase in sound level is a 5,000 times increase in acoustic power. And 107dB is unbelievably loud for a laptop - it's even unbelievably loud for powered computer speakers. I imagine that the track was tuned to a resonant frequency in the laptop's speaker system.

Nah, as you can see on the frequency plot of the app that is not what they did, and why would they? Giving that thing a class-d chip with some 'practicly unbreakable' tiny speakers does the trick. And as you see on the faces those tiny speakers just are way beyond their limits. Making things loud is easy. Making tiny things loud (with low frequencies) and sound good is an art form. I would even go as far that they didn't even want it to be loud. They just took of the shelf components without doing too much math and thats the outcome.

What a brilliant writer's laptop. Most people don't use their laptops to calculate Pi to ten billion decimal points or decode the Rosetta Stone. Even that quad core Celeron is plenty for just normal laptop use (and many just use their laptop to remote in to some other PC/system to do actual work- so it's just a keyboard/screen interface device). A nice crisp 4 display, amazing keyboard, good trackpad. I suspect most small devices use the old Bose trick of using an efficient small driver but then using very strong signal tuning to level out the actual frequency response played. Those speakers must just be playing the raw audio, so the extremely strong frequency response at a certain ear piercing range is 100 decibels now. That is fixed by using headphones- which most people do anyways. Only d-bags play their tunes through their laptop speakers in public.

Having a beefy cooler for the weak CPU also means it can keep the system cool enough that heat would never get in the way of work, and replaceable NVMe storage is a must for the PC, as it has to be easily repairable in a fast paced office environment. I think a faster CPU like the newer Ryzen laptop chips would make this a premier office PC.

I just about dislocated my jaw laughing at that decibel meter reading. HOLY BISCOTTI that'd nuke your hearing so quickly you won't even be able to determine speaker sound quality anymore! Maybe that's the point. Also oof centered around 2kHz is right at the pain point for lots of people owing to HRTF mess, I'd have run from that

Those little Choc switches aren't bad at all. That's going to better to type on than most laptop keyboards out there. To bad it looks like they molded the laptop shell to the keyboard layout, would be really cool if you could make custom mechanical keyboard layouts for it.

the speaker being on the bottom of the laptop is probably what's causing it to be so loud. the sound is bouncing off the table surface , it;s sticking a cell phone in a metal bowl (somehting i've seen cooks at ihop do to get more volume from their phone). the reverb off the table is making the sound louder. test the laptop's sound with the spekaer pointing into open air, i bet there is a huge drop in volume.

if these had a more capable use in general cpu/apus and more cemented ideas on what to do with rest of its design and audio. i could see it being popular specially if they maintain that price. they could find their niche. it does look nice with a keyboard and enthusiasts/modders would adopt it quickly.

This laptop looks exactly like the laptop in the Linus Tech Tips video "Brown Star for Effort - This AliExpress Gaming Laptop is HILARIOUS". Right down to the mechanical keyboard, magnetic webcam which is a bit terrible, the fake speaker grills. It's just missing the DEEQ brand and it's the exact same laptop!
