    I got this as a Christmas present for my hubby, he loved it. I don’t know to much about computers so I had to asked my friend who works with computers and he recommended me this computer, I’m so happy we got it. Has everything that we were looking for, perfect color, size and has a lot of memory.

      Csims - Thanks for your review. We're sorry to hear that it's not meeting your needs as far as speed is concerned. Here are some tips that can hopefully help - Delete temporary files and directories
      1. Click Start, then in the search bar type "disk". Disk Cleanup should appear on the menu above the search box.
      2. Run disk cleanup and eliminate unneeded temporary files (Search results, Internet Cache and other windows temp files you may no longer need)
      3. Select files you want to delete then click OK to start the cleanup process. Uninstall applications you no longer use
      1) Open the Programs and Features application in Control Panel.
      2) Scan the list of applications installed for ones that you no longer use.
      3) Highlight any application you no longer use and then click the uninstall button at the top of the list. Follow the prompts to uninstall.
      4. Repeat for each application you want to uninstall.
      5. Move large files and/or seldom used files to backup media (Photos, Music you seldom listen to, application downloads after the application has been installed etc.).
      6. Empty the Recycle Bin. Here's the full article - http://dell.to/2tSulGV.
      We hope these tips help you. - Bryan Dell

    Bought this in November. Cleaned up the Dell duplicate applications to speed it up. It worked. I'm using it for normal internet browsing and email use. It's starting to slow down even with the spyware and boost apps. I'd say it could be better for the price and time, but you do get the standartite PC stuff done fine

    This laptop offers quite a lot for its price. The only drawback is the trackpad which is not very responsive.

    I bought this laptop during Black Friday sales. It is to replace my wife's problem infested i3 desktop. The laptop is thin and light. The performance is adequate for my wife's use, though it lacks some status indicator (e.g. HDD activity, number lock, battery status, etc). In general, if I have to pay full list price for it, I'll opt for other choices.

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend

    Great laptop for average users. No issues at this time. Set up was easy. It is by no means the fastest computer out there but it is not the slowest either. If I had the choice to purchase this computer again, I would not hesitate to do so.

    Startup was fast and setup was super easy. Love the way the computer looks and has all the features that I wanted and more. Love the 1TB size and the 6mb of memory and the touch screen is very responsive. Over all a great deal at 299.99.

    I love my new computer. It was my first time to purchase one all by myself. I read the spec's and compared pricing at several different vendors but Best Buy had the best price. The only problem is that this was delayed 2 days.
