Colorful Technology Company Limited, a familiar name among gaming PC enthusiasts, has officially launched its new flagship iGame laptop series: the iGame Origo. The debut models, the iGame M15 Origo and iGame M16 Origo, are crafted to redefine what high-end, lightweight gaming laptops can offer by marrying raw power with thoughtful versatility. They’re clearly designed with the premium market in mind, appealing to those who crave both performance and portability.

Raw Power Under the Hood

Let’s talk specs first—because these laptops aren’t holding back. The iGame Origo line is powered by the latest NVIDIA GeForce RTX 50 series laptop GPUs and Intel’s 14th Gen Core HX or Intel Core Ultra processors. This combination supports up to 200W of total system power. What that means in practice is fluid, immersive gaming and enough grunt to handle heavy-duty tasks like video editing or 3D rendering.

The RTX 50 series, first unveiled at CES 2025, is rolling out in phases throughout the year, with some models already in the wild since March. On the CPU side, the M15 Origo features Intel’s Core Ultra 9 285H and Core Ultra 7 255H—both of which started shipping in Q1 2025. The M16 Origo steps things up with Intel’s Core i9-14900HX and Core i7-14650HX from the 14th Gen Core HX lineup. That’s a lot of horsepower under one hood.

Design Inspired by the Cosmos

Performance aside, these machines stand out visually too. COLORFUL says the design draws from black holes and futuristic aesthetics—and, well, it shows. There’s something bold and a bit mysterious about them. The company refers to the laptops as “All-Round Dominators,” emphasizing a balance of power, thermal performance, and portability.

Despite packing serious hardware, the laptops keep a slim profile—just 19.9mm thick. The M15 weighs in at 2.08 kg, and the M16 is slightly heftier at 2.28 kg. Not exactly featherlight, but certainly manageable if you’re on the move.

Introducing Star Island: An AI-Powered Companion

One feature that’s especially interesting is “Star Island,” an on-device AI assistant that comes baked into both laptops. It’s designed to support various workflows—from studying to content creation to, of course, gaming. While AI features are becoming increasingly common in new hardware, having a built-in tool like this might genuinely help streamline day-to-day use. It’s part of a broader trend where laptops are becoming smarter and more responsive out of the box.
