Good for the price but could be better
Posted .Features
Quality4 out of 5Value4 out of 5Ease of Use5 out of 516 ish gigs of ram (my computer is showing 13.9 gig) and a ryzen 7. I got this computer when it was only $500 ish. For that price I could not be beaten. most computers come with only 8 gigs so I see this as a plus. The battery is not omg great but not horrible either. I would say if this computer had a better battery it would be a huge plus. My big complaint is there is no m.2 slot on the motherboard. I do wish there was one but for an extra 99$ I got a 1T SSD so the issue with slow storage is resolved. Disassembly is easy enough just make sure you take out the two screws from where the DVD drive is and the 6 screws from under the rubber pads.

Why this laptop is an excellent purchase.... read!

Quality5 out of 5Value5 out of 5Ease of Use5 out of 5(FYI This will be a long read) First things first, I thought this laptop for the price was going to be much worse than it actually is. But once I started installing programs and running them I was ASTONISHED! GAMING PERFORMANCE: I was really surprised when I started up GTA 5 and I was able to get a solid 40-45 fps when playing. (on medium settings) This is obviously not meant to be a gaming laptop, but for the casual games, it will be just fine. Older titles will run amazingly on this laptop. OVERALL SYSTEM PERFORMANCE: So I was so surprised by how well this Ryzen 7 3700U performed with the AMD Radeon RX Vega 10 GPU and 16 Gbs of RAM. I installed Adobe Photoshop 19, Adobe Lightroom CC, Adobe Premiere Pro 2019 (haven't tried editing a video but I'm sure it will perform okay), and all these demanding software ran as smooth as butter. I was running BOTH Adobe Photoshop & Adobe Lightroom and the CPU usage was only at 45%, While the RAM was at almost max (but that is expected with Adobe products because they use so much RAM). Now you are probably wondering about the 5400 RPM HDD that comes with it from the factory. I will say that the fan does run quite loudly on this laptop, due to only having 1 fan to cool both the CPU & GPU. HDD INFO: The read & write speeds are decent when paired with this processor and ram. I was getting 55 MB/s when transferring files from a USB 3.1 flash drive to the laptop and the same speed when transferring files from the laptop to the Flash drive. Obviously, If you replaced this HDD with an SSD you would get much better performance with most things you do on the laptop. I would say overall, this laptop gets an 8 out of 10. For the price you will pay for this right now, it is a great deal. Currently @ $529.99. Hope this review helps!

Love the Laptop!!
|Posted .Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.Features
Quality5 out of 5Value5 out of 5Ease of Use3 out of 5For its price, It is an amazing laptop! Ryzen 7 architecture which is down to 4 cores (due to the complexity of having to fit a GPU chipset and CPU chipset in the same space). I also love the advantage that 16 GB Memory offers over other units. However, when you boot and check RAM you'll see it's down to 13GB. That's because the GPU or Graphics Processing Unit is a mini-computer with separate memory, but because you're buying a laptop, it will probably have integrated graphics. That means that the CPU and GPU are in the same space and the GPU has to use preinstalled system memory. That's why the computer says it has 13.3 GB of ram available instead of 16GB. I love the overall speed and performance of the laptop, however, boot and load times are quite slow because it's an HDD rather than an SSD. That is my one complaint with this computer but I'm going to swap it out for an SSD soon. In conclusion, I could not be happier with any other product.

Amazing for the price.

Quality4 out of 5Value5 out of 5Ease of Use4 out of 5Had this laptop a little while now. I use it daily for 3D disign and printing mostly and a decent amount of gaming. Over all its a work horse. Has no problem running the software i use for slicing and disign. Its soynd system in about average. For doing basic office work or for someone just getting into PC gaming and not looking to spend a ton of cash up front, this is deff your choice. I have had it running high end graphics and have hit 124 fps with some tuning. For a laptop with 16gb DDR4 and a ryzen 7 3700 $500 is a steal. Now im not saying this is the best laptop i have ever owned. I mean compaired to a $5000 laptop its nothing. What your getting os a average laptop for a third of the price.

Amazing value and performance
|Posted .Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.Features
Quality4 out of 5Value5 out of 5Ease of Use4 out of 5The value is incredible. A 17 inch laptop with Ryzen and AMD Vega for under $1000 is insane. With that said they had to make up cost somewhere 3 things are holding this laptop back, anemic wifi card 433mbps is weak for 2020 and the 5400rpn mechanical hard drive is a slap in the face to this machine and the screen resolution is really bad with terrible viewing angles. This laptop is excellent for business and light use.

Works fine, light weight.

Quality5 out of 5Value4 out of 5Ease of Use4 out of 5I have only had this a few days, but got everything I wanted loaded and seems to be working. It did "lock up" once, so had to reboot it. Don't know what happened there? I loaded Office 365, Norton and Turbo Tax. As it has a larger screen than my previous laptop, I can't seem to see much difference. So, larger size not worth the price difference.

Quality5 out of 5Value5 out of 5Ease of Use5 out of 5This would be an easy setup if it had connected to the WiFi at the beginning of the process. After I had to call a tech service who’s number came up on my screen as I was try to install the Microsoft Office Home & Student, witch would not load. This process cost me an extra $299.00 and about 7 hours of my time. I’ve not had any issues with my existing laptop or any other devices in my home using the web root protection plan from Best Buy. Other than this the product works well for me.

Q: QuestionCan you upgrade the RAM? Can you change the harddrive To SSD?
Asked by Melsbarns.
- A:Answer Yes, you can upgrade the hard drive to a solid state hard drive with a SATA connection. (No M.2 drives are in this laptop.) Doing so will give you the biggest boost in performance over replacing the RAM in most cases. You can indeed replace the RAM, it has 2 sockets which are both occupied by 8gb sticks currently. You will need to buy 16gb sticks to upgrade this laptop.
