  • The Origin PC Evo15-S gives you the power of a mainstream gaming desktop in a slim laptop package weighing weighs less than 5 pounds, and without sacrificing connections
  • The keyboard is a hair too cramped, which throws off anything you use muscle memory for, plus it's a bit mushy. And if you set it for maximum performance, it can get maybe-I-should-stop-playing-now hot
  • As long as you're not persnickety about your keyboards and always play plugged in, the Origin PC Evo15-S should deliver a great portable gaming experience with a lower-than-average schlep factor...

  • Super thin chassis, Color rich, contrasty screen, Nears desktop level performance
  • Short battery life, Obnoxiously loud fans
  • Dolling out over two grand for a mobile gaming machine is a lot of money to spend on a laptop, but the EON15-S is one of those unique packages that manages to deliver on all fronts. It comes with enough power to rival a desktop. Meanwhile, Origin got all ...
