If there is a pick-two of three feature triangle for a gaming laptop, it has to be performance, size, and price. If your pick-two choices are performance and size, Illegear has something new for you to check out: The Illegear Onyx Pro and Selenite Pro.
The Onyx and Selenite are existing slim laptop line. But the Pro models refresh the look and spec choices. Both models are constructed with a magnesium alloy chassis, with a protective coating on top. The Selenite Pro has the bigger 17.3-inch screen, weighs 2kg and 19mm thin. The Onyx Pro is the more standard 15.6-inch screen, weighs 1.55kg and only 18mm thick.
The Onyx Pro does not have a mechanical keyboard like its predecessor. But it can have a 4K resolution screen.
They are slim, but they are also gaming laptops. Both laptops come with an Intel Core i7-9750H CPU. As for GPU, it’s either an Nvidia Geforce RTX 2060, or a freaking RTX 2070. No, Max-Q, this is the full-powered graphics card. Both models have four heatpipes, four vents and two fans for cooling.
