Voodoo Envy 133 Unboxing

[feastluva222]

this computer looks good but has pretty shitty proccesor, def not for gaming

[Followingalegend]

You sure as hell put alot of care just into the unboxing O.O

[quiksiv]

okay who cares about the laptop i want to see the box

[wesbluemarine]

But where can i buy it?

[NoNW0]

@wesbluemarine ebay maybe....

[AILDdrums]

Basically paying for the name, the looks, and the quality

[ALcreates]

gorgeous laptop :)

[Anguigen]

Do you still own this? I would totally buy it.

[AfroN1nj4]

I want this so much but what is holding me off is 80gb SSD hardrive. Come on... If it had like 120gb i would buy it.

[timsarmchair]

FINGERPRINT MAGNET! Looks good though. Shame it's not all that gutsy on the inside.

[BlacMonky]

Its a great looking laptop, but whats the point? Its all exterior and no interior. Its basically a very shiny box. Now if you could customize what went inside.....

[PhazeTraiN]

What website can I buy this labtop off of? What website did you buy this off of?

[TheNiceguy1212]

@PhazeTraiN

Search up voodoo on googles.

[chunkmanshaun]

hp bought voodoo pc in 2006 to enhance there gaming options smart idea but like alienware and dell all good things will eventually go to shit

[nocommayoucantread]

this thing is slower than my macbook white unibody

[Anonymous8999]

It's also two years old there kid.

[nocommayoucantread]

Yes, it is still slower than my current white macbook. I went onto their website and looked up the specifications for their current model.

[sniperwill0]

is voodoo made by hp? or is it its own company?

[Swarm200]

they both compute right. so who cares

[malachaihough]

omg apple mac is a consumer gimmick, I admit the designs are great but the repair and accessories are a rip, You'd think after all these years apple would have tried to solve this problem but meh. I love this voodoo machine its 1 1/2 years old though and i still can't find one or buy one from anywhere!

[carlover72]

Not sure what you're on but I've never had to pay for any repairs from Apple when I've taken my Mac Pro, MBP or iPhone in.

[ciderrulz994]

It looks so easy to get smeery finger prints on. You would be able to spot the grease from a mile off

[clophie]

Mac users don't know much about computers??? I know this much, once you go Mac you don't go back. I'm extremely happy running on Mac OS without any issues, that's part of the admission price dumbass LOL

[bob10001234]

@clophie i'm having fun running OSX on my laptop with the same specs as a macbook but a third the price. hackintosh, it's really not that fucking hard

[nocommayoucantread]

hackitnosh doesnt run on all computers. you still need specific hardware that the cracked OSX supports.

[ashrocks87]

u really dont know about computers lol

[TibtheBear]

mac users dont usualy know alot about computer, and they just get ripped the fuck off without knowing why.

[TheWMhater]

Mac users don't get always ripped off, Apple's consumer desktop line is very competitive.

[TibtheBear]

you get ripped of no matter what when buying a computer but apple especially because it has a strong reputation, so they allow themselves to add an extra 200 -300 bucks.

[TheWMhater]

You have no idea what you're talking about, I've done many comparisons and consumer Mac desktops were either cheaper or on par with PCs.

[TibtheBear]

o i see, your a mac whore...

you may be right for the desktops i dont know about them ihavnt looked, but i can tell you for sure that the mac laptops, are way more more expensive then a pc with the same specs, they do overprice, perhaps because of its case design and operating system. so please dont try to feed to everyone that macs are cheaper, its not fucking true im sorry but a macbook, even refurbished is still more expensive then lets say a toshiba with more power.

[TheWMhater]

I never said that the Mac laptops are cheaper, you PC fanboy. I only said that the Mac consumer line is not overpriced. I'm not a Mac whore, I'm a PC user.

[TheWMhater]

Mac desktop consumer line

[TibtheBear]

i was actually looking to buy a macbook and then i realised id be paying 300 bucks more for a case and an os. it is overpriced, othewise that would mean pcs are underpriced and that just makes no sense.

[TheWMhater]

I would never buy a Mac laptop. You're not paying for the OS, you're paying for an overpriced plastic MacBook that can crack and that is underpowered. Apple is a hardware company, they can certainly afford to price their OS low.

[TibtheBear]

word, and as for envy id totally buy that sexy thing if it was -1000 $ less

[SonsOfHateSphere]

Now, this one should make Mac stop complaining about their "beautiful" design.

[TheWMhater]

The Voodoo has a 1.6 GHz C2D, DDR2 SDRAM, Intel GMA and a 80 GB HDD. $1,600

More like putting a old engine in a new BMW.

[SonsOfHateSphere]

Or 1.8 GHz. It's better and much cheaper than Crapbook and Air.

Also SSD instead of HDD, and 2GB DDR2 at 667MHz, which is quite nice for the price.

But I really love the look!

[TheWMhater]

LOOK AT THE SPECS OF THE AIR. AIR 1.86 GHz C2D 6MB L2 1066mhz FSB 2GB DDR3-1066 120GB HDD Geforce 9400m G $1,499 HP Voodoo 1.6 GHz C2D 4MB L2 800mhz FSB 2 GB DDR2-800 80GB HDD, not SSD Intel GMA X3100 $1,599

[edge160]

wher can u get this n canada???

[sw2de3fr4gt]

You can't. The only place you can order it is from the HP website and they don't ship to Canada. It's ironic how Voodoo, a Canadian based company, does not even ship to it's own country.

[edge160]

i kno. i live n calgary and voodoo was calgary based. i wish it still was.

[KingCorvette]

boy, that top looks so glossy.  fingerprints must be a pain.

[cymeria101]

hp bought voodoo so now in my opinion i think there are the same they both make great laptops and desktops so you know if you got one then great!

[zodiac949]

What a sleek laptop

[TheAmazingPinoy]

Lol you guys are so silly! This computer isn't famous for their thinness lol its the capiablity for gaming.

Alienware is #2 for worlds best gaming computers

[urgandma]

this computer doesnt look like its good for gaming

[xKatz90]

Voodoo is famous for that yes but this computer is meant to be a super thin portable type machine. NOT for gaming.

[donttasemebro92]

i resent that.

alienware is #1. ever hear of the m17x

[kelidoscopegod12]

it sucks. voodoos are faster. ever heard of this... DELL BOUGHT OUT ALIENWARE! now there 2nd

[hxcobd]

@TheAmazingPinoy Are you fucking stupid? This thing has NO gaming capability whatsoever... It has integrated graphics.

[Xjectivity]

@TheAmazingPinoy DO NOT WASTE your money on ( Aleinshit ) ... go for SAGER laptops. MUCH MUCH cheaper better performance. EVEN better looking.

[SiKGaMeRR09]

@TheAmazingPinoy whats the 1st???

[snapascrew]

why is this computer so expensive?

[manner4]

Because it is the thinnest laptop in the world!

[DirtyMidgetStudios]

No it's not. MSi has a laptop wayy thinner.

[manner4]

Ok!

[UnderGroundR]

@snapascrew because it's made out of carbon fiber :P

[brocklarsen]

Mac should make a gaming seris of pc they whould probley be like so good

[Jay12341235]

what? macs use the same parts of a computer thats in a microsoft pc. why would the mac be any better? it would just be more expensive

[Paradashed]

They'd need two or more mouse buttons for that...

[Cairnsiee]

But the specs are so low for the price

[marick626]

its thinner than the macbook air and you get things you would not get with the air like an external optical drive. The specs are fine for the type of work you would do with this and it also saves on battery life and reduced heat.

[tipoomaster]

Probably one of the most attractive laptops out there, post more vids!

[tipoomaster]

Why didnt they just go all the way and call it the 1337?

[JacobRoot89]

God its almost as sexy as a MacBook! thats rare for PC's.

[tipoomaster]

I would say sexier, but lets not nit-pick ;-)

[rmbrown09]

macs are a waste of money

[JacobRoot89]

What did that have to do with anything I said? And no, they're not. They're worth all you pay for. I'd pay $5,000 for the cheapest Mac just to not buy a PC.

[rmbrown09]

Thats what i mean, with a pc you can do anything, yea it has problems with the OS, however there quite rare and not as common as people are led to believe, and there are much more powerful for much less. My laptop right now blows the macbook pro out of the water for 1100k and the macbook pro is 5000. give me one reason a mac is worth the thousands more.

[JacobRoot89]

1. I've seen so many plastic-panelled laptops that have been knocked off desks and ended up with cracked cases or worse, broken screens or even worse, damaged hard drives, yet my faithful aluminum PowerBook G4 took many such tumbles with only scratches and scrapes to show for it. All the time it remained entirely functional. The optical drive slot got bent once, so I couldn't insert discs, but a quick push with a flat-bladed screwdriver sorted that one out. You can't do that with plastic.

[rmbrown09]

There are numerous pc brands, and to apply "plastic" and imply that its poorly constructed isn't logical. My 7805u is made of plastic and aluminum and metal, i have not dropped this baby once however i feel certain it can take abuse.

[yuri5677]

yuk you still have the power book

[JacobRoot89]

No, I have a Macbook Pro now. That was just an example of what happened a few years ago.

[BlueGamakichi]

dude youre so corny. the world doesnt revolve on cheesy outdated overpriced apple you know that>?

[marick626]

lol, I love it how someone gave you a thumbs down.

[PatVRulz]

Nice! but, what is voodoo used for? Are they a gaming computer company? or?

[IceLine305]

they used to be gaming but now they are more luxury and somewhat aimed towards "hackers" lol

[PatVRulz]

aha ic. Like a "sleek" gaming or high powered "stealth" computer

[yungceezy10]

tht cant game, macbook air has better graphics and specs

[st1ckfigure]

Air definitely has better specs in many areas, but there are strong points in the Envy. Removeable battery, much cooler(as in heat, not design), more ports, the IOS. Of course, if you're looking for a gaming laptop, there are better choices than either slim laptop.

Truth be told, with Nvidia's laptop equipment design, I'm kind of surprised so many companies are using the Intel GMA architectures.

[loldotalol379]

Voodoo Envy 1337

[wwjoshdew]

That thing is nice and shiny! But the little EEE PC 901 in the background is like a 10th of the price!

[edge160]

Dell Adamo is nicer!!!!

[thosepeoples]

the dell adamo has a non removable battery and is not carbon fiber. plus its just as expensive for an inferior product :D

[insanejoker52]

NICEEEe

[ej2189]

fuck...thats nice

[freshpinesent]

I came.

[eternalkp]

i know. really great for $2200. it's in stock at newegg now. type ASUS W90Vp-X1 in newegg search engine.

[just2389]

Thats not the same laptop by any means..

[eternalkp]

get ASUS W90Vp-X1 from newegg for $2,200

some features includes:

Intel T9600 @ 2.8ghz...overclockable to 4ghz, and most important...ATI 4870 X2....yes, finally comes in a laptop. 6gb of DDR2 ram, 320gb 7200rpm HD. 18.4in 1080p screen. All for $2200 from newegg. This to me is the ultimate laptop for really good price.

the ATI 4780 x2 will eat your 9800GTX SLI alive. It is right on par with GTX 295 desktop GPU. 3Dmark06=20k

[ericeng91]

wow, that laptop sounds AWESOME! but i seriously doubt you could overclock a laptop cpu to 4ghz without serious consequences. That is, assuming you can even overclock it. But wow, i gotta check that laptop out. sounds nice

[mushfikniloy]

u can overclock a cpu to 4ghz but only for desktop and you would need liquid cooling

[ericeng91]

yea. that's what i said. But for laptops, you MIGHT be able to flash the bios with some hacked form of your own version in order to achieve some sort of overclocked cpu, but it wouldn't be a high OC and the heat would be unbearable to the rest of the laptop.

[TheBlitz1]

you could probably increase by .4ghz maximum with no voltage change, thats a good clock too.

[soccerintreegin]

umm...NO. Mine is running 3.51 quad core and i dont need liquid cooling. Plus i have dual raptors and Corsair ddr3 ram to keep cool. Liquid cooling is not required anymore...unless u buy crap parts

[2pacisthegreatest]

whats with everyone and the thin obsession...like i wouldnt mind carrying around 2 more pounds and 0.3 inches more if i could get a laptop with a faster processor...which is why i went for the macbook

[GUnit20002006]

This is clearly better than the macbook air, design-wise or even spec-wise. Apple just has better marketing, which is why more ppl buy apple air.

[seroyer2]

I'm Sorry but I hate you I want this computer so badly!!! it is so fucking cool. why would you get a Mac Book Air when you could have this.

[anthonyzeng620]

because windows sucks.

[seroyer2]

the only people who think windows sucks are morons who don't know how to set it up right.

[anthonyzeng620]

windows sucks.Microsoft copied apples computer. and apple sued them.

[cfgauss]

I can't understand why expensive notebooks keep coming with glossy screens. Glossy screens looks cheap and are less functional (too much reflections).

[kooreanpride]

wanna tell us the specs on it next vid?

[squareenixff]

A piece of Art

[smartpartsSUCKS]

This thing is sleek!

[Syboltleffert]

Unboxing so slowly is so gay.. jesus just open that motherfucking box!!!

[dumaitbjimmy]

Seriously? 3.45 hours of battery life?

[basarabz]

i get the feeling that voodoo is the windows version of mac.

ie- its pretty but terribly over priced and cant handle a game without it being 10 years old.

[MrNick01]

i hope not, they say they're gonna release a dedicated gpu version of this thing later

[roflmeidleme]

do you have to order all voodoos with phone now? i can't find much info on ordering on their site

[drunken88]

The cake is a lie.

[dcsb]

D MSG ME ON MSN MESSENGR !!! ID IS jane24belle n

[weinerschnitzelboy]

lol i noticed that the windows button on the keyboard is changed to the voodoo symbol

:)

[Minimum91]

The Style of the Voodoo Envy Box is brutally ripped off the macBook Air Box Style.

[Wilbury2525]

No one cares...... it's a box.. calm down

plus the macbook air is the worst product apple ever created.

[Minimum91]

I do care, calm down.

Plus no wonder everyone who I know likes the MacBook Air, because it is a piece of pure technology.

[infernox82]

hey, that box is square, complete rip-off of apple! I'm so sick of hearing that crap.  I own the Envy 133, run linux, and would never trade it in for a macbook air. I have nothing against apple, just against apple fanboys like you.

[Minimum91]

First off, STFU I AM NOT A FANBOY. I'm so sick of hearing that crap. You missed the point, It's not the square that matters, but the design of the box. You are ignorant. I don't care if you own one or not, that is completely off topic and I said nothing bad about the Envy itself.

[philc12]

macbook airs fail... nuf said.

[Minimum91]

Macbook Air has a Kickass graphics card, nuff said. Internet slut, think of something original.

[philc12]

seriously? if youre buying a laptop for power, why the f*** would you waste your money on an air or envy... these are both 'my is slimer and prettier than yours'. besides envy at its fattest part is slimer than air at its fattest part.

[Minimum91]

What the hell are you talking about??? Both of those laptops are not powerful? Who said that? not me. And the Macbook air at it's thinnest part is thinner then Envy. There is obviously no point in this conversation. As a member of a Family full of designers (Father, Brother, Mother) and as a every year visitor of 100% Design London I must say: You know Jack Shit about Design and have no rights to speak about stuff you don't know. Get smarter, then we will talk.

[philc12]

I said its not powerful... both of their components are weak compared to an average notebook with the same price tag.

and yeah, but if there was a opening of 0.70 inches, you could NOT stuff an air in it, but you COULD put the envy through. the thinnest part means absolutely nothing.

[Minimum91]

Who's talking about power? we both know they are not powerful, this isn't worth any words, it just is as it is. What kind of opening? Your vagina is 0.70? That is the dumbest thing I ever heard.

[Minimum91]

Just the fact that the Envy exists is a proven point of that the envy is a stolen Idea from the Macbook Air, and you say it sucks? If there were no Macbook Air, there wouldn't be a Voodoo Envy. Period.

[rdalea]

damn apple fanboy much?

[Minimum91]

Damn fool much? Maybe Blind? I'm sure you are blind when it comes to design, you are too stupid to see obvious things.

[TeHGoodReverend]

Just out of curiousity, I noticed your an aspiring artist, and your critical of Voodoo. So you disagree with their motto "blending art with innovation, and performance"?

[Minimum91]

No, I agree that it is a good looking device, just not as good as the MacBook air. I'm not saying that this is a crappy laptop, there are a lot worse laptops, all I'm saying that the the air from a design perspective is a lot better then the envy. Envy is good but the air is better.

[GameOverCassanova]

while closed, the air looks nice, but when opened up i think its horrible, especially the keys, the black on the silvery colour of the rest of the laptop, i think looks terrible

[Minimum91]

Th Keys are made black, to be better seen in good lighting. But when it goes dark, the keys light up, and the lamination on black keys makes a good contrast, between the letter and the keys. How can you claim anything like that? Apple Receives multiple Design Awards per year, how is that having a bad design?

[weinerschnitzelboy]

i dont think envy is better than mac but i like envy in design

[wa1D1ng]

The macbook air looks like ass...

I hate when laptops don't have a flat bottom, it doesn't look as sleek

[Minimum91]

You obviously know 1% about design, try visiting 100% Design London, maybe you will understand something ya' mook.

[wa1D1ng]

Guess what big boy, guess who doesn't give a flying fuck about some technical physical design? That's right, the consumer, I as a consumer do not give a shit what physical properties are needed to make the laptop, all I want is a laptop that looks good and performs well, and when the bottom of the laptop is curved or not completely flat, I think it looks bad, that is MY opinion as a consumer.

[Minimum91]

Guess what big boy, guess who doesn't give a flying fuck about some technical physical design? That's right, the fool.

You are a moron, You truly don't get the Idea of what I'm saying right? Even though you are a consumer slut, it's not an excuse for that you don't know anything about design. Envy is a flat 4 edged brick, at least the MacBook has some style to it. "performs well" And who the hell is talking about performance? Air outperforms Envy in most things, especially Graphics.

[GameOverCassanova]

have you ever actually stopped to think about style? the squareness of the envy IS its style, if they wanted to make it shaped like a pebble they could've easily done it.

[daphartkidd]

nicest laptop i want one!!

[nortexoid]

sick.

[deonplayground]

Beautifull...

[Pyr01]

thanks man, you just made me cum all over my monitor

[russianartist]

lol wow! have fun cleanning it up.

[alexenk]

argh i want one so bad

[mangaeva]

Finnaly a design that is as good as Apple design. Nice job! Asus, Sony, Toshiba, Dell You all should wake up and make better and better looking norebooks

[4tneerg]

how much did it cost u? nice laptop

[velvetdress4u]

that is like the only thing that is new in that house in like the last 30 years. What a waste of time.

[fshando]

and they lived happily ever after

[times9]

you lucky bastard,that is so pimp.never seen or really lookt for a voodoo unboxing.nice one.

[TeHGoodReverend]

Nice comp man, enjoy
