Key Specs
Screen Type: LED
Screen Size: 15.6 inches (Size of the screen, measured diagonally from corner to corner.)
Screen Resolution: 1920 x 1080 (Full HD) (Screens come in a range of resolutions (measured in pixels, horizontal x vertical). The higher the resolution, the greater the picture quality.)
Touch Screen: true (Touch-screen devices make navigating more intuitive. Using a touch-screen display, you can do things such as tap to select, hold and drag to move items, swipe to scroll, and pinch to zoom.)
Processor Model: Intel 4th Generation Core i7 (Your computer's processor is like its brain. Working in combination with system memory, the power of the processor determines the complexity of software you can run, how many programs you can have open at the same time, and how fast those programs will run. Most computers feature an AMD, Intel or Snapdragon processor.)
Storage Type: SSD
System Memory (RAM): 16 gigabytes (Random-access memory (RAM) is a computing device's short-term data storage, which allows active information to be accessed quickly. The size and type of RAM determines how efficiently the device can handle large amounts of information at one time. For example, gaming or video editing requires more RAM for optimal performance.)
Backlit Keyboard: true (Integrated lights allow for visibility of the keys in low-light conditions.)
Screen Size: 15.6 inches (Size of the screen, measured diagonally from corner to corner.)

Processor Model Number: i7-4720HQ
Storage
Storage Type: SSD
Solid State Drive Capacity: 240 gigabytes (The amount of data that can be stored on the device's solid state drive (SSD). SSD is a flash-based storage with faster speeds than a hard disk drive (HDD).)
Memory
System Memory (RAM): 16 gigabytes (Random-access memory (RAM) is a computing device's short-term data storage, which allows active information to be accessed quickly. The size and type of RAM determines how efficiently the device can handle large amounts of information at one time. For example, gaming or video editing requires more RAM for optimal performance.)
Type of Memory (RAM): DDR3L (Each type of RAM delivers a different level of speed, bandwidth, energy efficiency and performance.)
System Memory RAM Speed: 1600 megahertz (How fast the information-storing hardware operates. The faster the RAM, the faster memory can be transferred to other system components. Ultimately, faster RAM improves operational efficiency.)
System Memory RAM Expandable To: 16 gigabytes (Adding more random-access memory (RAM) to a computer speeds up performance and improves efficiency. Upgrades to memory are limited by the number of expansion slots for additional RAM and existing RAM installed on the device.)
Compatibility
Operating System: Windows 8.1 (The operating system manages all software and hardware, including files, memory and connected devices. Most importantly, it lets you interact with your device and your programs in a visual way; otherwise, you'd be typing computer code to get anything done.)
Operating System Architecture: 64-bit (An operating system (OS) manages computer hardware, software resources, and programs in conjunction with the system's processor. 64-bit operating systems can handle more data at once than 32-bit systems, resulting in faster speeds, more effiency, and overall improved performance.)
Features
Backlit Keyboard: true (Integrated lights allow for visibility of the keys in low-light conditions.)
Touchpad Type: Built-in
Media Card Reader: true (A hardware device that allows for access to data on a memory card and enables the transfer of its files to a computer. These devices may have one or multiple slots for various types of memory cards, and may be integrated into the computer or available as an external device.)
Audio Technology: Bang & Olufsen ICEpower
Speaker Type: Built-in with external SonicMaster subwoofer
