4. VOYO i7 Notebook: Elegant Performance
So, here’s a question. Is it really possible to get a gaming laptop under $1000, even under $750? Yes, it is. VOYO i7 Notebook is such a Chinese notebook that provides mid-end gaming performance under a stupendous price tag of $733.08. Furthermore, it’s an extremely light built for a 15.6-inch gaming machine as it weighs only 1.7kg and occupies a space of 37.50 x 24.50 x 1.80 cm. The 180mm thickness is exceptional making this 15.6-incher a sub-notebook instead. Despite being dedicated to gaming, the laptop is a pure metal beast. Things can get pretty hot while gaming because of that metal chassis. We recommend you to get a laptop cooling pad if possible.
Regarding performance, this machine blows all the above competitors in the list of top 10 Chinese laptops/notebooks of 2017. On the front, we have a simple yet enormous 15.6-inch Full-HD display. The 6th Generation of Intel Core i7 6500U categories it as a high-end notebook along with eight gigs of RAM and 1TB SATA HDD. The selling point is the GPU which is Nvidia GeForce 940MX (2GB). You might get a sub-notebook with this GPU under $750, but it won’t have a Core i7 6500U. However, the hardware is enough to do mid-level gaming such as running GTA 5 on medium settings, Witcher 3 on low, Watch Dogs 2 on medium, and some old games on the highest settings. The laptop could have been an absolute hit if VOYO had provided 4GB graphics memory.
Great performance along with a slim built is the reason why we have selected this notebook at no.4 in our list of 10 Best Chinese Laptops 2018 (Early).
Pros:
- Metal Built
- Lightweight sub-notebook
- Nvidia GT 940MX
