    Hey guys, could I get some quick opinions on the above which I can get for about €838 at the moment.

    It would be replacing my trusty Samsung Q330 which has served me well since February 2011 with really ferocious use over that time. Its getting a bit old now though so I'm looking for something a bit newer although I;ve been stalling on it for some time as I think "value" in laptops isn;t as good as when they were a bit more popular in years gone by.

    This one caught my eye when browsing HUKD earlier, the reviews for it are good, a Haswell i5 and 1080p screen look to be relatively rare for the money. The only downer I can se is the battery life at about 4 hours average which is probably not the greatest but perfectly fine I think seeing as this won;t be required for professional use.

    Any thoughts on this model would be appreciated before I go through with it!:)
