Sager NP7352 - Clevo W350ST

I am considering getting either a Sager NP7352 - Clevo W350ST ( Reflexnotebook.ca is your Source for the Sager NP7352 (Clevo W350ST) in Canada) or a GE60 2OE ( MSI Canada GE60 2OE-002US), and after finding out about issues with the GE60's battery life and temperatures I am wondering how the battery life and temps in the Sager compare. Also, to anyone who owns the Sager, I'd like to know how good the build quality, keyboard, touchpad and display are. There seems to be threads on every Sager/Clevo notebook out there except this one, so it would be really helpful if someone could help me out.

 

People seem to prefer the SteelSeries keyboards found in many of the MSI laptops over the Clevo keyboards, but the Clevo keyboards have come quite a ways. We seldom hear complaints of any of the previous or current generation units having unbearable keyboards or defects.

Construction quality on the Clevos is also good. Many of the users here have attested that they have withstood the test of time in their personal experience.

And the displays are great! Both in terms of picture quality and reliability. I've seen mixed reviews on the trackpad on various models, but that seems very subjective.

 

Just a note, audio solutions in CLEVOs are terribly bad. The speakers are distorted, and they practically sound like a PSP (even my w995 non-smartphone beats the lousy onkyo speakers in the clevo). The 3.5mm audio jacks are not even close to standard sound quality. It comes with VIA audio chip and Creative Sound Blaster Home Cinema, but produces atrocious sound quality that sound worse than a radio. If you care about sound quality, stay away from clevo, else you are all set for clevo, as other than sound quality, it has more goodies than the msi ge 60. Unfortunately i can't seem to ignore the terrible sound quality (as i went down in person to test drive the system) and ended up cancelling my order.
