Save $350 on this Newegg Core i7-13620H laptop with 1TB SSD — $549 Hasee X5 has 16GB RAM, is 2X faster than $699 Apple MacBook Neo
Newegg is throwing a massive spanner in Amazon’s well-oiled Prime Day engine in the shape of the best-value laptop you can buy this October.
Newegg has introduced a remarkable laptop deal that could make Amazon's Prime Day look pale in comparison. The Hasee X5 laptop, priced at $549.99, is an exceptional value, offering a Core i7-13620H processor, 16GB LPDDR5 RAM, and a 1TB PCIe Gen4 SSD. This represents a 38% savings off its suggested retail price of $899.99. The laptop boasts a 15.6-inch full HD IPS display, a flat-laying feature, and a backlit keyboard.
The chassis features a silver finish and a metal body, giving it a premium feel. The Hasee X5 is powered by an Intel Core i7-13620H, featuring 10 cores and Intel UHD Graphics. Although this processor is typically found in gaming laptops with discrete GPUs, it is the most powerful CPU available in a sub-$649 laptop. The 16GB LPDDR5 RAM and massive 1TB PCIe 4.0 SSD are both rare in laptops of this price range, making the Hasee X5 a true powerhouse.
When compared to Apple's MacBook Neo, which uses the A18 Pro chip, the Intel Core i7-13620H in the Hasee X5 is about 2X faster. Additionally, the Hasee X5 outperforms the Dell 15 laptop, which costs nearly twice as much and uses a slower processor. The Hasee X5 also benefits from a dedicated keypad, backlit keyboard, and a privacy shutter for the webcam.
Despite its impressive specs, the battery life is only estimated to last for about 9 hours, which may disappoint some users. Connectivity options include WiFi-6, a microSD card reader, three USB 3.2 ports, an HDMI port, a Type-C connector, and an audio interface. However, the laptop uses a barrel-type power port, which may not be everyone's preference.
