There's no faster laptop under $700 than this $560 Core i9 monster with a CPU that rivals the M5 in the $1,099 Apple MacBook Air
Core i9-12900H powered Hasee X5 15.6 laptop is now just $559.99 for Black Friday, $270 off its usual price.
As Black Friday approaches, savvy shoppers are hunting for the best deals on laptops. One of the most remarkable bargains spotted so far is the Hasee X5 15.6-inch laptop, priced at $559.99 on Newegg, a significant discount from its original $799.99 price tag. This powerful machine packs an Intel Core i9-12900H processor, a 14-core CPU typically found in high-end systems well beyond this price range.
When put to the test in benchmark evaluations, this chip matches the performance of Apple's M5 processor found in the $1,099 MacBook Air, particularly in multi-threaded tasks. While Apple's single-threaded performance surpasses that of the Hasee X5, it's rare to find a laptop at this price point with such impressive multi-threaded capabilities.
The Hasee X5 15.6-inch laptop is equipped with 16GB of LPDDR5 RAM, a 512GB PCIe 4.0 SSD, a Full HD IPS anti-glare display, Wi-Fi 6, and Bluetooth 5.2. Built with a sleek silver metal chassis, the laptop boasts a backlit keyboard, privacy shutter, and an array of ports including USB C, HDMI, and microSD. It also packs a 30-day refund policy and a 12-month warranty, providing buyers with peace of mind.
Beyond the impressive hardware, the laptop weighs just 3.86 pounds, making it a portable option for users on the go. Despite not bearing the name of a major brand like Lenovo or Dell, the Hasee X5 delivers performance that rivals much more expensive machines, making it an exciting find for Black Friday shoppers seeking value and power in a sub-$450 laptop.
