We review the Lhmzniy A9 Not long ago, and it’s still one of the most promising Chinese laptops we’ve come across in 2020. It comes with Windows 10 Pro, 16GB of dual-channel RAM, a webcam cover, and a small charger, not to mention a Premium finish that doesn’t seem to match its affordable price.
Fast forward to April and a slightly larger clone has entered the market: the KUU K1.
KUU K1 Core i5 laptop – Gearbest $ 394.99
(about £ 350 / AU $ 685)
It may look a lot like Lhmzniy’s A9, but the KUU K1 boasts increased firepower with its Intel Core i5 processor. The Full HD screen measures 15.6 inches and the device comes with 8 GB of RAM to boot. For maximum savings, use coupon code O4883112F39EB000 at checkout.

The slightly more expensive 512GB model costs just $ 419.99 (approximately £ 375 / AU $ 735) with coupon code D4883220F65EB001, which cuts the price by $ 36.
A key difference between similar devices is the inclusion of a Core i5-5257U CPU in the KUU K1. It’s an older CPU, released in 2015, but with a base clock speed of 2.7GHz and a relatively powerful Iris Graphics 6100 GPU, it is still competitive with the Intel Core i5-7200U according to CPUBenchmark numbers.
The rest of the spec is also unknown at this price: 8GB of RAM with an aluminum-magnesium alloy, support for two SSDs (256GB or 512GB SSDs), a fingerprint reader, and a Full HD IPS display.

The machine also features 802.11ac, a 38 Wh battery, two USB ports, a micro-HDMI interface, a card slot, and a headphone jack. The webcam is located on the hinge, similar to older Dell XPS 13 laptops, and should come with a privacy cover.
