Hey everyone! :eek:

We come with news, and we really do want your opinions. :cool:

So, a local AORUS enthusiast and military buff came to us with an idea. We loved the idea and thought it would be pretty cool, so check out what we created together.

Is this something you guys would like see in the future. Possibly limited edition, etc. We’d like your feedback. If you play FPS and War Games please spread the news through your own communities

  • Do you like it? ;)

  • Do you hate it? :(

  • If you love it and want it, which model would you most like to see X3, X5 or X7?

  • Are there other ideas about designs/colors you have? Let us know!

We have already posted this on our social media (Twitter, Facebook, etc.), but in our opinion OcUK forums have some of our most enthusiastic customers. We’d love to hear your opinions.

IF YOU DEFINITLEY WANT THIS DESIGN - EXPRESS YOUR INTEREST HERE AND EMAIL US DIRECTLY; [email protected]

As always thanks for your support and we look forward to reading your posts!

Regards,

Team AORUS
 
Looks cool but kind of limited in terms or who and where you can pull the look off - while very much not its intended audience I wouldn't walk into a business meeting with something looking like that heh.

For laptops I've always liked under-stated designs where the real beauty is most apparent on closer inspection - subtle bevels, recessed features, etc. real craftsmanship to the details without being overly "shouty".

Hi Rroff,

Thanks for feedback and agree this wouldn't be an appropriate design for a business meeting, although I guess it would be a conversation point!

Another +1 for "stealth" gaming laptops. I travel a lot and its always been a "thing" producing some garish gaming laptop in front of colleagues for the airport scanners. Thankfully, I'll probably go for a Gigabyte for my next machine which should tick the box - that is if they can produce a top graphics card machine with no overheating issues.

If people want bling, how about gaming customisation cover panels or simple decals/vinyl wraps? Would cover all bases then.
 
Do you like it?
Yeah i always like alternative designs :D

Do you hate it?
Only if it does not provide me with cookies

Would love to see a Mario one and on the keys a mario character on each one XD
 
Im not personally to keen on this! Though i can see a market for it :) I would not want to be " that guy " who shows up with the camo laptop at a work meeting. I like subtle designs really so this is a bit powerful for me! I would love to see a carbon version with a few subtle silver accents on it.

If it is camo enough you can sit and play CS:GO and they won't even notice. :cool:
 
Was never a fan of the military theme or adding ammo cartridges to mobos..etc but I'm sure there is a market for it somewhere.

Sleek and discrete for me personally.

Good on you for seeking feedback and suggestions though
 
I like the idea of white or silver camo, I think that effect could look really professional/military at the same time. Would be great to see a mock up of this. :)
 
Its a gimmick idea...ok, a gimmick some gamers may well appreciate... but it would have limited appeal I suspect, unless the options are there to choose from the numerous camo schemes currently in military use.

I suspect too, in reality, it bares little resemblance to actual military hardware thinking, or current requirements. :D

My vote ... Thumbs down

(Pity there isn't a thumbs up or down smiley we can vote with... an idea for the future maybe??)

Not my cup of tea if I'm honest; just seems like its catering to a "tacticool" type of crowd - if I were to pull it out my kit bag, I'd think I'd be abit embarrassed. Why not go with something different like a unique artwork / modernist approach rather than shrink wrapping it.
 
I think it looks disgusting and is a pathetic attempt to look 'Army' for a childish consumer base that thinks playing CoD makes them certified SAS troopers.

But that's just the impression I personally get from the appearance. :p

I really don't like that pattern (prefer good old British DPM) and I don't think it looks anything like military kit. Just a normal laptop with a paint job... or sticker set, even.

I'd much rather have a laptop styled on the modern GRiDCASE products (which actually *are* military issue lappies) and built to at least look like they would be used by soldiers.
 
Eve Online

You could do a range of them, One for each faction?

Rifter / Merlin etc
or
Battle ship Scheme, Frigate Scheme, Battle Cruiser Theme?
 
i'd walk into a business meeting with that.

but then all the people i do business with would appreciate it :D
 
Ultimately it isn't designed for people who would be taking it to a conventional business environment but while I think it looks kind of cool I can't see myself ever buying it - do like the idea of a more discrete carbon and silver accent version though.
 
I think the idea is good but it needs a bit of tweaking. To iterate the opinions of some people who've already posted It certainly isn't something I'd want to take to a business meeting but in a white or stealth black version I'd probably like it for gaming away from home :)
