    Purchased for my father when his old computer went bottom up. He didn't want to spend much, and this one came recommended by a store associate. Computer is decent if you're only using to monitor email and light web browsing, but even for this it can still be slow. Just my personal opinion - I don't understand why any processors below an Intel i3 is even an option. We use computers for just about anything and everything these days and these Celeron and Pentium processors just don't cut it anymore.

    We needed a do it all laptop for backing up iTunes and the occasional word processing but didn’t want to break the bank for something that won’t be used everyday. This has enough power, speed, and space to function well for our needs, and we were blessed to get an open box which brought the price down to $238.

    This laptop is so slow, it's almost useless. It is not 5g wireless capable, so using it for anything more than email is frustrating. It cannot deal with more than two programs or functions open at a time. The resolution is not good, and colors are washed out. Forget doing anything beyond basic 480p video streaming, much less any games more complicated than Word with Friends. The sound capability is so so. It freezes fairly frequently, requiring a complete reboot. I really wish I'd spent $100-150 more, as it would have bought much better quality. The webcam and photo functions are grainy. This thing has me frustrated and cursing every day.

    This product fits my lifestyle. I'm glad that the sales rep recommended it to me. It is light and easy to carry but the only drawback is that I've got to learn about window 10 so I can use it fully.

    I bought this for my mom, she needs is for surfing, email and watching youtube. Laptop is in silver color but not glossy, not total matte finish, kind of makes it look attractive. Display is bright and nice, overall happy with the product, only reason for giving it 4 star is that its response is little slow.

    This is a very good value laptop PC. I have a larger more capable iMac but I bought this to use when working remotely ( including working from home from time to time) since my company's IT Dept. is more familiar with issues arising when working remotely on a PC. Yes it is a bit slow, but I have significant anti-virus and anti-fraud software installed that likely slows it down. Couldn't beat the price for the purpose and the frequency (or lack thereof) that I use it.

    I got this laptop for a student. The goal is to write papers and do some web research. It’s not as slick as a Chrome book, but we needed to option to add Office 365. Great Value!
