New 14 inch Clevo chassis?

[george1979]

Hi,

I will be looking to buy a new laptop soon (when Uni starts) and I hear there is going to be new 13.3 and 14 inch Clevo chassis' released soon so I was wondering if Scan have plans to release laptops at this size?
I gather the 13 inch will have full HD screen and be pretty pricey but the 14 incher has 1600x900 and should be more affordable.

I was considering the LG5 but its lower res and smaller screen may not be so useful for productivity when I'm not gaming. Can you give me a clue as to whether you plan to release the 14 inch one and, if so, approximate dates/pricing? I'd rather buy from Scan so if you plan to release them then I'll hold off till you do

Thanks.

Hi george1979

We have been working with Clevo to develop a new 13.3in model that should sit price wise somewhere in the middle in between our current 11.6in LG5 and new (launched last week) 15.6in LG155. Right now I don't have a definite launch date or price yet though.

As for a 14in, I haven't seen any that looked worth buying in from Clevo at the moment, so I'd suggest checking out the LG155 or keeping an eye out for the 13.3in.

Keeping my eye open for the new 13.3in

Thanks James.

I'll keep an eye out for the 13.3in although I'm dreading the price tag from what I've heard about it

Any news when Scan's 13 inch model might be released? I saw a couple of other vendors have released one recently so curious to see what you guys do

We should have some news on these new models later this week, just need to finalise some more details.
