- In my hands, the top laptop deal of the summer,
before back to school, before Amazon Prime Day.
How to get this, before it sells out,
in two-and-a-half minutes.

It's thin, it's light, it's productive and powerful.
(lips smooch)
I'm not talking about my wife.
I'm talking about the laptop deal of the summer.
Great to be with you.
I'm the YouTube Deal Guy.
I hunt down the biggest deals.
And I mentioned this'll sell out in two-and-a-half minutes,
because in my hands is something that will go on sale
for Amazon Prime Day.
And the difference is, when it goes on sale,
at some point over the course of the day,
laptop deals, on average, with the specs,
and the price I'm about to show you,
don't last more than three minutes.
You're watching right now and you have an advantage.
This is going to sell out very quickly,
but if you are watching this
on the day that I have found this for you, which is today,
there is a link located right under this video screen.
And again, this is valid the day that I've uploaded.
If you are watching this video 24 to 48 hours
after I'm showing this to you,
chances are this is not going to exist.
A reminder, if you're not yet subscribed,
I'm not just looking to build subscribers,
I really wanna build your savings.
Many of the items that I feature disappear very quickly.
I'm gonna do a quick unboxing,
take you through the specs tied to this laptop,
and then, if you want it, you'll know where to go.
This is one very thin laptop.
Nice aluminum casing, and I apologize,
I have some fingerprints all over this,
'cause I do put this through the wringer in terms of test.
Compared to the MacBook, thin profile, almost identical,
the MacBook may have a little bit of an edge,
but this is incredibly thin.
Let's open it up.
You get a beautiful HD display.
And I should mention this has an Intel processor,
4GB of RAM, and a solid state drive,
which, of course, you could expand upon.
In fact, it comes with a really cool accessory.
On the MacBook, you get one USB C slot.
That carries your power, and that, of course,
is your only port, so you need a hub.
This laptop, which I love, has two ports to begin with,
a DCN so you can charge this,
and we get almost nine hours of battery life,
and then you also get the USB C out,
but this device ships with a USB C hub.
So right off the bat,
you're not only getting the USB C connection,
but you have an HDMI with the included hub,
which is fantastic.
Similar to most high-end laptops,
and again, you're usually in the $600 price range
to get something like a fingerprint reader
that, of course, is built-in.
And then you have a webcam,
which is actually placed a little lower
than you'd see on a typical laptop or notebook,
which is used to capture your face
with a really nice, vivid HD display.
Also has facial recognition built-in
if you so choose to use that function.
You get Dolby Audio, which is great,
really decent speakers, given the size and how thin this is,
plus, with Windows 10 preloaded,
you get some really decent speeds,
which may be attributed to the Intel processor,
or just the fact that the solid state memory
used in this laptop is really high-end, given the price.
Let's do some page load tests.
I have this laptop beside the $1200 MacBook,
and keep in mind, you're getting this for under $390.
Let's do a quick page load test right now.
So I hit both at the exact same time.
The MacBook, with double the amount of RAM,
had maybe a quarter-second advantage,
but let's put the two screens side-by-side.
I will conclude that, actually, this screen
may be a little bit more sharp.
I don't know how that's possible.
Obviously, the Apple display is a lot more high-end.
I don't know, maybe it's my eyes.
What do you think?
At least comparable?
- [Colleague] Oh, definitely, comparable, yeah.
- [Matt] Okay.
All right, on a video test, let's do this right here.
On the video load test, buffering speeds,
again, a half-second advantage on the $1200 laptop.
Let's do an audio check.
(cash register chings)
(bright pop music)
Surprisingly good audio out of the MacBook.
Oh, it's a Swiss Chalet ad.
Guess they know where I'm ordering from for lunch.
Let's make the audio louder on this one.
Audio not as good on this laptop,
although really decent for the size.
Let's do a full load video test.
Let's just put these side-by-side,
so you guys can see how they look side-by-side.
Let's put the brightness up to max on both.
I mean, you guys can see for yourself,
the video, and the playback, and the HD display,
is just as good on this laptop as it is on the MacBook.
I see no clear advantages.
I'll give the audio advantage to the MacBook.
I will give the half-second of speed,
or one-second speed advantage to this laptop,
but in basic day-to-day computing,
I'm telling you, this is incredible bang for your buck.
This ultra-thin laptop
with its Intel chip and all of its specs,
not only giving you battery life, in our test,
of up to eight hours, but it weighs just 2.3 pounds.
My newborn baby, which is the lightest thing ever,
Morrow weighs six pounds, six ounces.
This is a lot lighter than Morrow.
More importantly, with the 4GB of RAM,
the 64GB solid state drive, and then the ability
to expand this up to 512GB,
you are way ahead of the game.
With the quad HD display,
you get a resolution of 2560 x 1440,
which just means it's beautiful, and not just 720p,
so you get that sharper, vibrant image.
You can get some real work done on this laptop.
Keep in mind, this is not a Netbook,
this is not a Chromebook,
this is a fully loaded, operational device, with Windows 10,
and a really nice, ultra-portable, thin profile.
Love the USB Type C hub that's included, just another bonus,
and the price is awesome!
To take a look at the deal price, which is under 390 bucks
on something that would sell for at least 150 bucks more
than what you can score it for today.
(claps hands)
make your move!
Expand that video description box.
Again, the link located right under me.
And I mentioned, I find these huge tech deals.
I've got Prime Day access before anyone else in the country
and deals that populate here before anyone else.
I don't want you to miss them.
And I don't wanna miss you.
