Totally plastic build but solid with little keyboard flex. Fanless design is great - warm to the touch on full load. Sata ssd is upgradable as well as the WiFi card. Ram is unfortunately soldered to the board. Speakers are meh as to be expected at this price but you do get a decent 1080p panel. The bezels are huge and it feels more like a 15.6” than a 14”. Overall for the price I paid I’m totally satisfied. The only thing I wish it had is a backlit keyboard.

Nothing too fancy about this computer. It doesn't have a CD drive and no it doesn't light up or tell you when CAPS is on, but for the purpose of working from home and my kid being able to do her online assignments, it does the job! We can Zoom, Google, Outlook, and even play Sims 4 ;) Good is good enough for me - as the OG Cyndi Lauper would say.

Love it! Works great for surfing net, watching videos, watching news!

never booted to microsoft windows, installed linux ubuntu 18.04.03 in about fifteen minutes, for a total time from walking in to bby to driving home to finishing the install of linux ubuntu of under one hour. udates were automatically downloaded and installed in under three minutes. why linux? long microsoft widows updates, slow microsoft windows software and endless microsoft windows security nightmares are not a problem for linux. nice linux rig, no fan, warm to the touch underside, installs linux ubuntu with no hitches, no bios adjustment, all devices recognized and functioning perfectly with no additional drivers to download. fast, excellent performance in ubuntu linux here, using external hard drives and sdcards to store non-system data files on all devices made transferring data from machine to machine a simple process, and avoided costs of cloud services. this rig has a microsd slot, so moving 1 TB of data was painless. also, it is helpful to avoid extra upgrade ssd whenever possible, due to the time the upgrade takes, and the fact that in a year or two the tech will be obsolete. reasonably rugged build, should be fine in a backpack if you handle carefully and use a sleeve. screen is reasonably viewable over a wide range of angles, and the full hd resolution means you can fit more work on the window. good luck, you will enjoy using this machine.

Primary use: office, photo editing, some game play. Only have owned for 1 day but I’m putting it to the test right away. Scrolling through 20 open Chrome tabs, with other apps open, this computer still runs remarkably fast. Sim City 3000 Unlimited runs extremely fast and so does the Capture One trial I’m running. The machine is really nice looking and feels durable and just the right weight. Even after running for a while stays cool. Responsive touchpad and I like the weight of the clicking. Absolutely exceeds my expectations and would highly recommend!
