The Mi Gaming Laptop is a 15.6-inch device that features a 1080p screen, a 7th-gen i7 processor, and a Nvidia GTX 1060 graphics card (it also has a more affordable i5 model with a GTX 1050 Ti). The Mi also packs 16GB of dual channel DDR4 RAM,  256GB of a solid-state drive, and a 1TB HDD.

Other features include both Sony Hi-Res certified audio and Dolby Sound, plus a total of 10 unspecified ports (USB, etc), and a cooking system described as “hotkey turbo cooling” and “high-power.” Battery life information wasn’t provided, though, given the hardware, run time on battery likely isn’t very long. For great performance even during long gaming sessions, it comes with large heat pipes, a 12V cooling fan and four fan outlets for effective heat dissipation.

The Mi Gaming Laptop will start selling in China from April 13th for 5,999 yuan ($954). The top of the line model, which packs 16GB of RAM and a GTX 1060 graphics card, will retail for 8,999 yuan ($1,430).
