I’ve had this laptop for well over a year and it’s the best. The touch screen works perfectly just as the day I bought it, it’s fast, lightweight, and durable. I’ve dropped the laptop a few times and it hasn’t damaged it at all. I use it for DnD and writing daily and having many tabs open constantly and it’s great.

excellent laptop especially for home and school use. with a touchscreen that works great. easy to use, even my school kids are able to navigate easily and does all their school requirements. never noticed heating up with a long hour use. But don't expect for a better screen, and the power adapter easily breaks.Overall it's fairly good and its perfect for everyday use.

I was looking for an easy set-up no nonsense laptop for school and this fits the bill perfectly. I will say it runs well, not buggy and I can download my plethora of school apps on it with no problem. However, there are 2 small cons.Main one being the battery, it says it last over 6 hours it's more like 3 with the battery saver on. Now that could be because of the type of work I have to do, as I am in student government and have to use this computer for work, but any student buying should keep in mind you may need to plug it in between or during some classes. I mainly use it at home now and carry my tablet to school.
