    So what the heck is up with the new Clevo P640? It only supports a 1050 or 1050 Ti?

    That means they just gave away their share the market on the 14" gaming machines...

    Also the new scheme seems to be H for all P6XX models. P650HS-G etc...

    And did you guys see the new Clevo R200RS? What is that?

    It looks like a flat USFF PC based on notebook hardware. Laptop without keyboard and display.

    I'm a bit concerned how all of the HS models seem to be "Build in" with the GPU. Looks like if you want upgradeable GPU with kaby lake mobile (and graphics switching) in a notebook you're SOL. It's either soldered everything, or desktop CPU socket + MXM socket.

    To be fair, that's been the case with Clevo since the P150/170 went EOL.

    Ehm... is the P640 the only Clevo with a 1050ti? No 15 or 17 inchers?

    I expected a little more... choice. Or is it still NDA? Which would be strange, since other notebook sellers (HP, Dell, Acer, Asus, MSI, Gigabyte, Lenovo) have announced their models by now...

    With the mobile sockets going then it makes sense really as if you have one you may as well have the other really.
