Hi, Just thought of leaving a feedback in case there are more people out there wondering whether they should buy this laptop or not. I just bought it three days ago, with the exactly same configuration of this review for A$1,500. But instead of a 4710hq cpu my one came with a i7-4810mq, which in a few words is about 10% or more faster than the i7-4710hq. I've also replaced the HDD with the SSD of my old laptop and replaced the wireless card with a wireless ac.
Build quality is better than expected, and what I've seen on you tube reviews. That was basically my concern. I purchased it basically to do my work (web design/photoshop and illustrator + flight simulator x and prepar3d).
For all tasks so far, even thought it's not a GTX970m card, it performs flawlessly. Specially FSX and Prepar3d which are very CPU intense.
Keyboard feel is actually great. Just the perfect amount of travel and it does not flex, as opposed to my Toshiba Ultrabook.
The screen brightness and contrast is the best I've seen on a laptop and when compared to my ultrabook that has an ips screen, its a notch brighter, but the contrast beats the toshiba hands down. In regards colour representation, I don't know how they measure that, but at naked eye, I can't pick the difference compare (again) to my laptop with an ips screen. Pictures and graphics design looks better on the Gigabyte due to the better contrast level.
In regards to performance, my P27gv2 did not have the Intel Turbo boost issue of the laptop reviewed. It went on par with others i7-4810mq on cinebench 15.
In regards to the battery. Now this is very important and it amazes me to see that reviewers never mention about one particular topic that could save you a lot of battery. Simply disable on device manager everything that you don't need and use, such as the blue-ray drive, web cam, onboard gigabit lan, and specially bluetooth which is battery hungry. Why would a laptop need two hard drives. Remove one and keep in an enclosure, or something like that. I went past 5 1/2 hours with wireless on and screen at 50% brightness, which is bright enough on this laptop, and went over 6 hours and 15 mins with wireless off while working on adobe illustrator. Make sure you select the built-in intel graphics under Nvidia control panel for which application uses which graphics card.
In regards to weight: well, it's certainly a bit bulky, but lighter then MSI and ASUS that I've checked at the local store, so that was a bonus.

so that's it.
Also, before purchasing this laptop, I nearly closed the deal with an Alienware 17 r2 with an i7-4710hq and gtx970m worth A$ 3,000. That would have cost me 2x more for a less powerful CPU but more powerful GPU. I doubt the GPU alone is work $1,500.

Sorry, didn't see it is written that chassis is by Clevo.

I looked at the internal pictures and it seems like Clevo 350 series barebone.

That's better be cheaper than Asus G750JM. Even its 4710MQ will lose to Asus 860m OC version.

Your link to the MSI GS70 in the verdict takes me to the Aorus x7 review.
Also, can you review the Gigabyte P25 plz! Or even post some quick comments. The new Origin EO15 and how it differs from the MSI Ghost would also be helpful.

Classical values.
With the P27G v2, Gigabyte does not follow the current trend of designing slimmer and slimmer notebooks, but rather resorts to old virtues like a replaceable battery and comfortable maintenance. Admittedly, the 17-inch notebook is not really a compact gaming notebook, but it convinces with a generous equipment and a fair price.
