Build and Design
If the MALIBAL Lotus P150HM looks familiar to you that's because it is actually a customized version of the Clevo P150HM gaming notebook, which is available from various custom notebook resellers in a variety of configurations. Like most Clevo-based gaming notebooks the P150HM is a boxy and heavy beast that tips the scales at seven pounds. The unassuming exterior doesn't have the multi-colored LEDs or stylized lid found on most gaming notebooks, but the durable chassis holds some impressive high-performance components for playing any game on the market.

If you don't want to carry a 17-inch monster gaming notebook then this massive 15-inch system might be the perfect solution.

The screen lid and chassis are made of thick plastics with an internal metal support structure that feels quite durable. The lid and the top half of the main chassis are covered in a matte rubberized paint similar to what you find on a premium-level ThinkPad. The color is a mix between charcoal and coffee but looks nicer than just a glossy exterior. Again, the design of the P150HM is more than a little plain for a premium gaming notebook, but you can't judge a gaming rig by its cover ... the insides are what counts.

Speaking of the insides, if you want to open up this notebook and upgrade the RAM or hard drive yourself, then you'll find plenty of access panels to do it. Keep in mind that one of the main reasons to buy a Clevo-based gaming rig is to pay professional custom shops to build your notebook exactly the way you want it. However, Clevo makes it easy enough for anyone to get inside these notebooks. The team at MALIBAL was kind enough to outfit our test system with a full 16GB of RAM and a fast 80GB solid state drive (SSD), but if you decide to handle these upgrades yourself, the only thing you'll need is a screwdriver.
