Q: Can I add a m2 ssd to this laptop ? in addition to the 1TB HDD.
A: YES, you absolutely can add an M.2 SSD to this. When you unscrew the bottom and removed it, there is a clearly marked spot for a 2280mm M.2 SSD and it works very well. I purchased this laptop from BB for my wife's birthday and added m.2 and 2.5in SSD and she is very pleased. Please note that removing the bottom and adding anything immediately voids your warranty. I am not concerned with this since I work in IT and am extremely confident in my tech skills.
Q: is this an i5 Skylake processor?
A: It's an 8th gen i5 Kaby Lake Refresh processor (quad core, eight threads). Supposedly they're 80-100% faster than 7th gens.
A: Why would you buy a 2 in 1 without touch screen? I replaced the 4gb memory with an 8gb memory, to get a total of 16gb.
Q: Is it a windows 10 operating system?
A: Yes, this laptop has Windows 10 operating system.
A: Yes it is
Q: How many usb ports? Name please
A: this particular model (q505au) has three usb ports, one hdmi port, a usb-c port, as well as an SD card slot and a mic/headphone jack
A: It does not have a rear facing camera so any and all pictures must be taken facing the screen. I do not know if it takes video and I do not know the resolution of the camera. However camera specs should be in detailed product description. I believe the main purpose of the camera is video chatting not professional photography. The laptops screen resolution though is a clear 1080p.
A: Actually, keyboard is backlit and web site is incorrect. But backlight was inoperative initially after moving OS from HDD to Geek-squad installed SSD. They did fix it. Took a little time.
