    I wanted to wait to write this review until I had the laptop for awhile and I only have good things to say. For reference, I only use my laptop for normal web browsing, light word/excel work and casual gaming (have not tried any MMO or similar games). It is exactly everything I needed. The touch screen is a must have for me and works well. The keyboard is reactive and not as bad of a transition from a normal keyboard. It's plenty fast enough for my needs and has a decent battery life. It's easy to use and easy to set up. The screen quality is great and it's perfect size to stream a show or movie. Sound quality is good too. I'm obviously not someone who is super into computers, but I am a human being who uses the internet, likes entertainment, and has to check emails and edit excel sheets sometimes. I'm sure this thing does cool things I don't know about, but it was a value to me regardless. Also, it's blue and fits perfectly in my standard size backpack. Please enjoy the photo that the laptop took of my dog, Tilly. The TL:DR: Great laptop who the person who doesn't exactly know how much laptop they need, but knows they need a laptop.
