    This laptop came in better shape than I was hoping. Its a good, basic laptop to keep up with documents and websites. I haven't had much time on it yet, but it runs a distance tracker software very well

    My husband purchased this for use around the house when he desired to not be tethered to the PC. He has mostly used it for Excel and has had no problems whatsoever

    I am still getting used to the new computer, but so far, so good. Your salesperson recommended this computer for the things that I do. I know there is more to things I can be doing so I just need to go forward with things.

    Great laptop! I am a health student, and I use it for school and personal use. It runs great! The battery life is okay, but I'm usually always in a place where I am able to charge it.

    Noisy cooling fan

    Machine works as advertised. Only issue noted thus far is that the cooling fan is noisy. I had a text chat with geek squad regarding the fan, and they advised me to take it to the store to have the machine looked at. I got back the machine less than 24 hours later and was advised that the machine is fine...but the fan is not as quiet as other machines I have used.

    Nice look and feel. OK price. Windows explorer is weird. Does not display the logical file and folder structure I am familiar with. It continuously tries to force acceptance of Microsoft products I do not intend to use.

    the laptop is fast and nimble but its downfall is its design for the price you pay you would expect a decent looking computer. this computer is all plastic which isn't an issue the issue is that this computer feels like i went back in time to 2008 and bout it the muse is good but it feels like you have to press with the force of Zeus to click something the keys feel cheap and the display looks cheap is save your money for this price you could get a cheap gaming laptop that looks better and feels better

    It is a great computer. We were replacing another laptop and this one is 100% better. It easy to use, has a great battery and rarely plug it in. So glad we chose this one for a small business.

    Ergonomic and pleasant to use. Ready update for Windows 11. Utilized the update application and installation went off without a hitch. Newer GUI is reminiscent somewhat of an Apple OS.

    Seem to be a good deal for the price but I am having a problem with web pages freezing up after I am away for a few minutes, Nothing will respond after I wake my laptop until I go to another web site.
