I see that Selenite has Windows Hello camera, is the camera in Onyx not capable for Windows Hello?

Hi nyunyu,

We tried that but the ONYX bezel is slightly thinner than selenite so it cannot fit windows hello camera.

Yeah, on 2nd look it seems there is a slight curve on the camera bezel compared to onyx.
Nvm, just a feature that is nice to have but not essential.

How's the fan noise of selenite compare to onyx? Gaming on the onyx is quite annoying due to the noisy fan, everytime I play game people around me will thought that it's raining lol

Hi cts0418 the vents on the Selenite is wider and circulation area is much more spacious; this is because of the larger form factor of the laptop compared to the Onyx. However for a proper comparison of the audible fan noise, I would recommend you to compare the two models physically on our showroom, which is located at Oval Damansara, KL.

hello illegear team, the RMA is good, the replaced keyboard is woking well so far, the whole laptop body looks like it has never been disassembled before.

But a similar problem appear, my keyboard backlight brightness setting has failed to save, it kept default back to medium brightness when waking from sleep/idle, as in my previous old posts. The myapp version is 1.4.2.0 , is it the latest one?

Hi Eterman.. I believe this backlit brightness can be rectified by installing the latest current MyApp software version from our end is 1.4.9.0 and can be downloaded from the link below:

Hi Illegear,

Good day. I been using this Illegear z5 since CNY 2016 until now.
Last week my laptop screen experience this issue (per image) but it's Abit on off which becomes ok after a while.
Note: nope I didn't drop my laptop

Now it's permanent.
Am wondering what can be done and the possible repair cost?
If I could know the root cause it will be great too.

Hi kyxxx,

Thanks for enquiry.

Can i have your serial number to check whether your warranty is still valid?

You may try to connect your Z5 to an external display to see if the flickering happened on the ext. display.

Great cooling system comes great portability. The SELENITE is a gnarly 17.3” machine but it has an ultra-slim figure of 25mm and weighing in at only 2.25kg with a petite 15.6” form factor – a portable powerhouse that doesn’t compromise immersive experiences even on the go.

My 16gb ram got error (found out last Sunday) but Illegear is kind enough to replace them and even upgrade my ram sticks from 2400MHz to 2666Mhz.

Hi.
I need some suggestions and considering to own an Illegear notebook but I am confused with the available models.

Budget: 5k to 6k. Willing to stretch above 6k if the specs are great.
Purpose: Work with some medium programming and occasional AAA gaming (and I am not into super competitive gaming).

Specs required:
i7-8750H (or equivalent desktop CPU)
8Gb RAM
GTX 1060 6Gb
1TB HDD (or SSHD) + about 256 SSD (not sure if I should get NVME)
IPS Display and high sRGB.
15inch display (I could consider 17 inch)

Weight and battery life are secondary.

I have plans to use an external IPS monitor, maybe GSync. So I think I need DP (or a miniDP). Do I really need USB-C and Thunderbolt 3?

Thanks.

These recommended laptop models and specs has Intel Core i7-8750H, GTX 1060 6GB, 8GB SODIMM 2666MHz RAM, Samsung 256GB NVMe SSD, Seagate SSHD, 100% sRGB screen, and DP ports (mini DP).

Kindly note that Laguna and Raven Elite is slightly bulkier and heavier compare to Onyx which is slimmer, lighter and features INFINIVISION Bezel-less Technology. However, these 3 models offer similar performance for a slight difference in prices.

Wow! Thanks! Great stuff. I need to review these.

If I don't upgrade to 144Hz, what would be the refresh frequency for each of the models?

The free 2TB HDD upgrade etc, are these available only on your website? How about your online shop on popular ecommerce platforms?

For the default variant of the screens (either Full HD or 4K for the Raven Elite), the refresh rate would be 60Hz.

In regards to the free upgrades, the promotion is offered on our online store as well, which you are able to browse by following this link: https://store.illegear.com/

How about the refresh rate for the default variant of the screens for Onyx and Laguna?

Yes, i was mentioning that the promotion is offered on your online store but I couldn't find them on the ecommerce platforms. Can you please share with me which are the platforms? Lazada? 11street?

For the Onyx & Laguna Kabylake, the default refresh rate for the screens are also 60Hz but for Laguna with Coffeelake processors, we only have one screen variant and it would be 144Hz by default.

We do offer our laptops officially on eCommerce platforms but the same freebies might not be applicable as our online store. Kindly find the links for our Lazada & Shopee stores as listed below:
