Clevo Laptops Paste
Clevo® is a laptop ODM or manufacturer similar to Tongfang. This means their units are often not named Clevo but show up all over the place. which can gets quite confusing when you're unable to understand their models.
Clevo laptops are sold by almost all "custom" or "boutique" laptop companies. Basically if you see a laptop and you're not sure what brand it is... It's probably a Clevo. If it's not that it's probably a Tongfang (link to Tongfang paste)

Design
The 4th digit indicates Chassis-Design (such as Build material, Metallic Palm rest, Metallic Display Cover, colors,..etc.)
Levels range from 0 to 8 depending on the series, 0 is base model while 8 is full-featured model
For example:
- NH50
- NH55
- NH57
- NH58
"The features, mechanical engineering and mainboard layout are identical on each one of these – the chassis is purely about cosmetics and haptics. We picked the NH57 variation because it’s the only one where the LCD lid is made from metal. You can really feel the difference – it’s a much more quality / high-end feeling. NH55 was a close contender but it was covered in a semi-glossy IMR coating which is a bit too prone to collect fingerprints – it looks more matte on the pictures than in real-life." - XMG Apex 15 thread
