Kobalt G150 (Clevo P150HM with Geforce GTX485M) Gaming Laptop Review

CyberLink MediaEspresso 6 is the successor to CyberLink MediaShow Espresso 5.5. With its further optimized CPU/GPU-acceleration, MediaEspresso is an even faster way to convert not only your video but also your music and image files between a wide range of popular formats.

Now you can easily playback and display your favourite movies, songs and photos not just on your on your mobile phone, iPad, PSP, Xbox, or Youtube and Facebook channels but also on the newly launched iPhone 4. Compile, convert and enjoy images and songs on any of your computing devices and enhance your videos with CyberLink’s built-in TrueTheater Technology.

New and Improved Features

  • Ultra Fast Media Conversion – With support from the Intel Core i-Series processor family, ATI Stream & NVIDIA CUDA, MediaEspresso’s Batch-Conversion function enables multiple files to be transcoded simultaneously.
  • Smart Detect Technology – MediaEspresso 6 automatically detects the type of portable device connected to the PC and selects the best multimedia profile to begin the conversion without the need for user’s intervention.
  • Direct Sync to Portable Devices – Video, audio and image files can be transferred in a few easy steps to mobile phones including those from Acer, BlackBerry, HTC, Samsung, LG, Nokia, Motorola, Sony Ericsson, and Palm, as well as Sony Walkman and PSP devices.
  • Enhanced Video Quality – CyberLink TrueTheater Denoise and Lighting enables the enhancement of video quality through optical noise filters and automatic brightness adjustment.
  • Video, Music and Image File Conversion – Convert not only videos to popular formats such as AVI, MPEG, MKV, H.264/AVC, and FLV at the click of a button, but also images such as JPEG and PNG and music files like WMA, MP3 and M4A.
  • Online Sharing – Conversion to video formats used by popular social networking websites and a direct upload feature means posting videos to Facebook and YouTube has never been easier.

For our testing today we are converting a 1.09GB 720p MKV file (43mins 28s) to Apple Mp4 format for playback on a portable device. This is a common procedure for many people and will give a good indication of system power.  We will also be converting a 15 track album from MP3 to M4A format.  Hardware acceleration was enabled for these tests.

This set of results is also impressive for a laptop and really showcase its real world CPU performance.

  1. that 480 is a monster. I dont mind those keyboards, I know the reviewer didnt seem to like them, but they work well for me.

  2. Nice looking machine, good all round spec for gamers.

  3. Uk only delivery on their machines I take it?

  4. We have the atom version of this, well it looks a bit different, and its very good. well made products.

  5. @Seveish, Kobalt will deliver to most of europe and probably farther afield if you ask them nicely 🙂

  6. @ Seveish, Kobalt Ship worldwide 🙂

  7. Thumbs down Don’t buy from Kobalt Computers
    No communications, no contact, plenty excuses, but no laptop and after 10 weeks time has run out. I cannot stress enough how disappointed I am with the level of customer service and disregard shown. After paying a large sum for a premium product and to receive nothing but excuses and empty promises this is totally unacceptable.

    And it’s not like I can review the product as I cot nowhere near one, the review and pictures look good, but what’s the use of that when you’re 3K out of pocket… Keep well clear of these cowboys…

    An Alienware would have been better than this…
