NO. Let me tell you. We bought this brand new from the store yesterday. Picked it up directly from the store instead of having it shipped and it is brand new. When we try to use adobe Photoshop, Lightroom, Fresco and other programs directly downloaded it from Adobe, it causes the system to crash only after a couple minutes. In 24 hours we’ve had about 14 crashes. I’ve spoken with somebody at Microsoft twice and Adobe once. Microsoft acted like they didn’t know anything about it and Best Buy had recommended this laptop specifically for using Adobe products. Adobe was more helpful and straightforward. They said that they were aware that the graphics card is in compatible with these programs (Miscrosoft issue). They guided me through how to disable or turn off the graphics card in the different programs. So I had uninstalled all of the programs. I reinstalled them and immediately turned off the graphics card. I even rebooted the system. It worked a few minutes longer. I was able to work on editing one very small picture for about 15 minutes before it crashed again. Will be returning as soon as possible. Extremely disappointed to get a $1500 laptop that can’t even handle a basic program. I was getting it to replace my 12 year old laptop (with inferior specs) that can still run adobe. I just wanted something a little bit faster. I did a quick search online and this is something that Microsoft MUST to be aware of. NVIDIA (graphics card) has it listed on their site that they know about the issue. They have a tutorial on how to uninstall and do a safe mode reboot and then wipe. I did not feel comfortable doing this because I want to make sure I can still return it. Bottom line, when you buy something brand new it should work as advertised. DO NOT RECOMMEND.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Should be, the MX330 is no gaming card. I have a 2019 Macbook Pro 15 which has a Radeon Pro 555x which is about equal to the MX150. The 150 is very similar performance wise to the MX330. So if all these are about equal, you should have no issues with Adobe Cloud.
