Here is what I managed to customize. Totally value for money at this price, can do AAA gaming at low settings too, and feather light at 0.96kg

Similar model, but better value. 16GB and 1 TB SSD configuration, larger LCD, larger battery.

Good choice, it even has touch screen. But it is 2x heavier than the 7i carbon, and the carbon has a Quad HD screen, with military grade durability and waist height drop survivability. So yes depends on what you are looking for.

Checkout users review at reddit. Some complain about fan issue/noise on the slim model.

Marketing terms it may be, but how many manufacturers dare to claim 1.2m drop test survivability?
