    Solid laptop, very responsive and loads webpages and programs quickly. Especially for a Chromebook. Cloud gaming works well as long as they aren't games from 2023.

    It was good for the price but I ended up returning it because I am not used to the OS and it was not as gaming friendly as advertised. I ended up getting an MSI
