However, if you want something small and powerful, you typically see the price climb pretty quickly. Coming in at around £700, the new Gigabyte U4 UD isn’t particularly cheap, but it’s certainly not one of the most expensive notebooks on the market. With a 14″ Full HD IPS display, the smaller panel likely keeps the price down a little.
