n****r 发帖数: 471 | 1 Lenovo floated the ThinkPad X1 Carbon past us in May without so much as a
whisper of what the lightweight Ultrabook's price would be. The company
doesn't mind shouting it out in what looks to be a Hong Kong back-to-school
promo flyer, though. As long as the Newsmth.net post represents the final
pricing, local residents can normally expect to pay about HK$12,880 ($1,660
US) for an X1 Carbon with a 1.7GHz Core i5, 4GB of RAM and a 128GB SSD. That
's quite the premium if you compare it directly to what we see in the US for
a PC like the Samsung Series 9, although it's tricky to tell if prices will
be comparable on the other side of the Pacific: there's no sales tax in
Hong Kong, among other factors. Even if the price varies by the time of the
US launch later this summer, students in the city are already getting a
discount to HK$9,180 ($1,184) that suggests at least some wiggle room if
competition among Ultrabooks grows especially fierce. | p********n 发帖数: 1707 | |
