Product Manuals
A: It is definitely not 2 hours, on the average, especially since streaming anything is big, it will last 4.5 to 6 hours. 8 hours only f doing personal work, non networked. I hope this helps
Q: Can we upgrade RAM on this?
A: Hi BPatel, the laptop's RAM is upgradeable to 32GB (16GB x 2) DDR4, to avoid voiding warranty an authorized technician would need to install it. ^Rosi
Q: Has anyone played any games on this laptop? How do games like the Sims perform?
A: This laptop is easily powerful enough for the Sims. I play Call of Duty on mine with no lag.
Q: Does it have a backlit keyboard?
A: Yes, this model has a backlit keyboard.
A: glossy, but screen covers for sunlight are cheap, readily available and effective on most laptops
A: Yes you could put a Samsung EVO ssd or any ssd for that matter in this laptop. The HDD inside the laptop is pretty difficult to access as you need to unscrew 10 ph0 screws on the bottom of the laptop and then need a plastic spudger to ***CAREFULLY*** pop all the tabs in the casing to open the laptop and expose the hdd. once its exposed its held down by 4 screws in a small casing which is then attached to the hdd with another 4 screws. With windows 10 you will need to find a specific software to clone the ssd or you can just do a clean install. I tried with apricorn software and it does not work with windows 10 for some reason. Maybe an update will fix this down the road. The easier bet would be to get an m.2 sata 3 ssd and plug it in the slot. the slot is hidden above where the regular hard drive slot is beneath a wide ribbon cable. AGAIN BE VERY CAREFUL WITH MESSING WITH THIS LAPTOP. I have been fixing electronics for years so I know what to be extra careful with. I would honestly just give the laptop to geek squad and have them swap it, that way if they break anything its on them. Good luck!
Q: Are there any specific stylus' that work/don't work for this laptop?
A: Hi SneakThieff, this laptop will work with any conductive stylus. An inductive stylus will not work. ^Rosi
A: You still have to pay for the warranty separately, but open box is quite worth it. Mine was only missing the box as well as the paperwork and had not been used very much at all. I paid a little over $500 for what is a $1000 laptop. It has been worth every penny.
