Fantastic experience for kids of many ages
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.From the moment I opened the box with kids aged 3-8, they were immediately engrossed in the packaging and instructions. Having them build the computer and learn about the parts before it even turns on is a genius idea. And they were so proud that they did it and told several other family members. Once on, the computer guides you through an easy setup. Beyond the features and functionality you'd come to expect from a Windows driven computer, there are many Kano specific features that are great for kids (and even adults) to learn from as well. Apps to learn coding through fun city building exercises and the ability to easily connect to other Kano products like the Star Wars coding kit are just two of the features that set this PC apart from other entry level computers like the Chromebook. Would highly recommend for young kids and even parents.

Great laptop for my 7 year old son!
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was a bit skeptical when we opened the box and saw that we had to build it. However, the instructions were simple to follow, and my son and I had it built in 15-20 mins. It’s going to be perfect for his distance learning this fall!

Great beginner computer!
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was a bit hesitant to purchase due to this computer being listed alongside other brands like HP, Dell, Lenovo, etc, so I did some extra looking around about this device before purchasing. The way the device is packaged is really well done and engages the kiddo right away. It runs Windows 10 which has its ups and downs, but that means it is reliable and works with just about whatever software we want. Great content built in with Kano's apps.

Xmas Gift for 10 yr old daughter
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Daughter put it together with adult supervision. Very cool machine. Hope it encourages her to learn to code. Added a webcam & microphone so can record herself playing. Right now she’s moaning about lack of touchscreen and emojis for Roblox but she’s becoming world class at Minecraft.

Do NOT WasTe Your $$$ !
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Just Buy Your Kids a LapTop or Tablet ! This KANO is Very Bulky, Very Heavy, & Cumbersome. Especially for a Child. The Specs are Misleading! It is NOT Windows 10 Home. It is Windows 10 S Mode. The Keyboard & "supposed" TouchScreen are Non-Responsive. It is a Stupid Concept. You stick a Battery & a Speaker inside. So what? Just show your kids a picture of what's inside a computer or show them the inside of a real computer. Just got it delivered today & it's going back to the store 1st thing tomorrow.

OS is not Home, it's Win 10 S Mode
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The specs are misleading, mine did not come with windows 10 home, it came with windows 10 S mode. I can't install anything because of S mode. Now I have to waste my time and gas to take it back to the store to exchange it for something else.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendBrand response from Team Kano
Posted .Apologies for any confusion, Windows 10 can be switched out of S mode to be Windows 10 Home.

Q: QuestionWhat is the Kano PC’s CPU and GPU and is the Kano PC compatible with a stylus
Asked by BestBuycorei9Cat.
- A:Answer The Intel UHD 600 graphics which is embedded in the N4000 is a very basic graphics processor. So, laptops with the Celeron N4000 / UHD 600 can run only the most basic PC games. One of the screenshots above shows Minecraft running on this laptop so that's a plus.
