Great for CAD

published

I loved the options available to customise my lap top to the specs I wanted within my budget for use with Autodesk Inventor and other CAD programs. Some may be influenced by the less than exciting appearance of Metabox products; however, I value function over form and the Metabox I purchased functions better than any other computer I have used and the keyboard is a dream to use.

Freaking awesome!

published

I have been using a metabox laptop at work for the past 3 years. Currently we have about 15 laptops. Recently my HP Z420 workstation at home died and was looking for something to replace it. At first I wasn't sure to get a metabox or not. It's different when someone else pay for it (like work) and when you pay for it with your own hard earn cash. There was a good Black Friday sales thus gave it a go. Wow! Metabox laptops are freaking awesome!

First Time Purchase Very Happy

published

Purchased system during black friday sale, the product spec for the price was amazing, i have been building PC's for over 20 years and could not source this eleswhere.
I was skeptical about it at first but it came thorugh exactly as ordered and on time.
would definatley purchase again.
Lets be honest here, purcashing laptops and pc's online etc is a minefield at the best of times if you dont know what your doing, its nice to see a company following through with great pricing and great options only hope the keep sending me more offers so i can spend some more money with them.

Great product!, However, it’s been twice from the past weeks that it shout down out of nowhere.

published

Store really easy to navigate, a wide range of items and options.
Not very satisfied at the moment due to the fact that it’s been twice that the laptop shot down out of nowhere. It’s 2 months old.

Metabox Laptop

published

Very happy with the laptop. Everything works as expected, and the battery life is a bit better than I expected on office tasks. My old laptop ran very hot on some tasks, but this one gets barely warm doing the same things. My only disappointment was the slow delivery, although this was no doubt affected by me ordering it just prior to Xmas. I got exactly the laptop I wanted and overall I would be happy to recommend a Metabox laptop to my friends.

Everything is good so far

published

I bought this laptop 2 months ago and so far everything is good. It has a good design, is silent, and is attending all my necessities pretty well. Let's see if it will continue in one year.

Metabox P960RD - Blown away by the power and the $ saved

published

Best laptop ever owned (I've owned everything for Macs, to Thinkpads HP Elite range etc)
Sheer power, fraction of the cost of the big brands.
Upgrade-able - unlike the fruit brand which has everything soldered (including your wallet)

Great for latest AAA gaming on laptops!

published

I am having a great experience with this product, had a good deal during Christmas sales. AAA Games like destiny 2, gears 5 run flawlessly over multiple hours. Only downside is the fan noise and battery backup. my laptop has to be plugged in all the time, but I bought it mainly for playing games at home so I don't mind it.

Very very VERY happy customer.

published

Easy to navigate the store and build the package to your own requirements. Very happy with this purchase which has worked faultlessly. At just under $3,000 I was not intending to buy a cheap machine, I needed a work horse. The package I bought from METABOX was significantly cheaper than other brands on a spec v spec basis and I saved a lot of money. I will definitely be going back to METABOX for my next purchase.

Great machine, great price & service

published

The Metabox Alpha-X laptop I recently bought has been amazing so far. I made a few edits to a laptop they had on their website, which is extremely easy to use and far more user friendly than some of the other brands (which is also why I leaned towards Metabox). The laptop is fast, reliable and perfect for my needs. I use it for work including heavy tasks like photo & video processing, and fits well into my travel bag as well. I also tried a game on it and it runs well. Stoked with the product.

Fantastic laptops, I'm on my second one

published

I have ordered two laptops for myself in the last five years and both have been fantastic. I have also gotten 4 of my mates onto them and have had nothing but praise from them. Couldn't recommend a better place to buy

Best laptop for sure

published

Looked around for a bit for a laptop to suit my needs for now and the next few years and Metabox was the only place did I find the specs I needed and the chance to custom build to my needs. Got the slim P960RD, best choice ever. Quality of the laptop is the best I've seen in the market so far. Was a little expensive but came with the best software, specs one could ask for. Customer service is the best too, very knowledgeable agents, never felt rushed and they took the time to explain things. Thank you.

So good I'm buying a second

The online store was amazing, though if you could make it easier to identify the differences in the devises appearances. The complete range is great and my product is amazing. I can't wait to buy the next one.

Great laptop

published

Finding, customising and ordering was very simple once I could figure out what features I wanted (because there are so many!!). The laptop is also very good with no issues at the moment (it's only a month old). One slight inconvenience that I would mention is that the laptop came with a disk which contained the drivers for the keyboard and more. However, I had not selected the option for an optical drive with the laptop, making the disk redundant. Although these can be downloaded online, it may have been better to just provide a link to where to find the drivers and not provide the disk at all.
Overall, this is a great product with a competitive price, would recommend.
