The UK exclusive chassis design on offer from Horizon here is available with either an Nvidia GTX 1650 or the RTX 3050 Ti that’s in the model featured in this showcase, along with differing amounts of memory and storage, ranging up to a 2TB SSD and 16GB of DDR4 RAM.
That unique chassis design definitely sets this laptop apart from the competition. It’s clear that the Horizon Skyline is aimed at gamers and that can be seen in the design, it’s got a ‘gamer’ design but it’s also very sleek and understated. It has a fully backlit keyboard which helps you carry on your late night gaming sessions with the lights out! The white accented keys and outlined WASD keys really set the gamer tone across the Skylines keyboard!
Don't forget the 12th Gen i7 CPU which will allow you to take on processor intensive tasks like editing and rendering on the go, while the RTX 3050 Ti graphics card found in this model means esports gaming performance is great on the 1080p 144Hz display.
The gaming experience is great. AAA titles run well at medium to high settings and eSports titles feel smooth and responsive thanks to that snappy display. While the CPU is definitely the star of the show when it comes to the spec list, the GPU can definitely hold its own and will give you a great gaming experience wherever you are.
The Horizon Skyline range of laptops start at £1059.99 and you pick one up from Box HERE.
KitGuru says: The Horizon Skyline gaming laptop delivers a unique look, somewhere in-between a traditional laptop and an ultrabook. The accented keyboard stands out and looks the part. The powerful 12th Gen Intel CPU will ensure that this machine is no slouch, designed for editing and creative work, with a 3050 Ti to handle 1080p gaming workloads too.
