Firstly this is my first post, so please admin you can move this topic around if you think i've posted in the wrong section. My apologies.

Recently i was reading through the recommended laptop list and saw this model COMMANDOS 15.6” G15EX at RM4,099 for a GTX965 Ti and other specs was quite up to date.

CLICK HERE TO VIEW PRODUCT IN LAZADA

Then i proceed on google to search more about this particular laptop but it seems i cant find anything about it, no reviews, no youtube videos and not even a website. So i'm wondering right now if that brand is actually TRUST WORTHY? is it worth buying?

If you do have any other laptop recommended please do recommend some to me. I'll list my criteria below
1. Preferred Brand

Any brand is fine, as long as it's trust worthy

2. Budget

RM4000 - RM4500

3. Usage

Architect work eg: sketchup, 3dmax and revit. Also use for photoshop, video editing and rendering pictures.
Sometimes is used to slack off and play modern games too like the division, shadow of mordor and others. =p

4. Preferred laptop/screen size

15 inch and above. 13 is too darn small for designing.

Tech Armory is a legitimate shop located in SS15 Subang Jaya, it's where i got this lappy...

i owned this lappy for about approximately a month.. it's a great lappy for designing work...here's just my brief review about this lappy...( usually i won't don't bother to do any review cos too busy to do so...)

the G-15EX ( also known as Aftershock SM-15 / Clevo N151RF ).

paid RM4120 for these specs; ( my budget was around 4.5k )

i7-6700HQ, 16GB Ram, GTX965M Ti, IPS 15.6" FHD, Intel 8260 AC Wifi. No OS, No Hdd. Since I have few 256GB SSD around ( which I bought dirt cheap previously ), I fitted this lappy with the M.2 SSD & a 2.5 sata SSD and this system is ready to run in no time...

what i really like about this lappy, is that there isn't any branding / logo on it's chassis. I just love this clean and mysterious look .. biggrin.gif

since this purchase haven't exceeded my budget yet, i treat my lappy with this awesome notebook cooler, cooler master U3 Plus for RM75 from Lazada.

and to carry around this lappy, i purchased this awesome laptop bag, Targus Grid Essential for only RM240 from 11street...i must say this is the best laptop bag I ever used ! thumbsup.gif

back to the laptop, the main reason i got this is strictly for work purpose ( no gaming at all as i just hate gaming...dunno why shocking.gif ). My primary software use are Photoshop, Illustrator, Autocad and 3ds Max. This lappy can handle any task given with ease....no hiccup or issue so far. Everything run buttery smooth thanks to the i7 6700HQ and GTX965M Ti ( and the 16GB Ram too ) !

prior to this, i was still contemplating whether to get this or Dell Inspiron 7559 and I am so glad with my decision to get this instead ! thumbup.gif

Hello There
Thanks for asking about COMMANDOS'S GX15EX , allow us to tell some story
Commandos is our own Trade Mark, which first appeared in the market at 2014.

Early this 2016 we got BOD approval of big budget to activate the brand COMMANDOS, to introduce and promote them into the market.

Yes you can't find any review about COMMANDOS yet, as related activity just taken place less than a month. But we assure you our marketing team is working tirelessly and you will see videos, advertisements, roadshows, tournament sponsorship with our mark appear across the platform very soon.

However the brand COMMANDOS never been heard until recently, but our main company ZEON is celebrating our 11th anniversary this year. We are also appointed Gigabyte distributor and Service point.
Hope the sharing can shed some lights on the doubt you have.

thank you

Hey! thank you for your awesome review regarding this particular laptop. it's very informative and also thank you for the pictures. it definitely looks mysterious with the no-logo-on-chassis. once again, thank you very much.

I bought laptop from tech armory too. The model is S15 with 970m. All these laptops are clevo based ..which u can expect already the same clevo standard. Just a rebrand. Happy with the purchase. Has been using it for half year..no issues. The other main reason i choose this brand is because it has business look with gaming internal specs.

Have a look at post #14 (page 1) on this thread nod.gif If you're talking about the G15EX the website no longer show this specific model. Have a look.

Otherwise, lookup on the net with keyword for "Clevo" to get a general thought on the brand from owners such as here.

Similar review could be found here.

Thanks for all the replies, its been very kind of you guys to respond to this quickly. Just a quick question, i'm not really that familiar with GPUs, but isn't GTX965 Ti better than GTX960m? Despite that GTX960m have 4gb vram while GTX965 Ti has only 2gb vram. isn't GTX965 Ti still better though?

I cant seem to find anything as good as the Commandos and as cheap as it is. Gigabyte and MSI are all around 5k above.
Legit as in its reliable ?? i'm just worried that once i get it, use for less than 3 months and goes back to "factory"

its self customized by tech armory.. there is few user also using it... "mysterious look" but its offer good deal and good specs + good value. nod.gif

I could understand your worriness. but worry not, the brand COMMANDOS® is our registered trademark, But most of the machines are made by Clevo and which recommended by other fellow forumers you may refer to google in this model no: CLEVO N150RF1-G

Hope this help
