Customers are positive about the large screen size, ease of use, and the generally good performance of this 17.3" laptop, frequently citing its excellent price as a key advantage. However, customers are negative about the battery life and some expressed dissatisfaction with the touchscreen and pre-installed Windows mode. The SSD was praised for its speed, while some users found the weight acceptable. A few users mentioned concerns about the keyboard and the inability to easily remove certain software restrictions.

    I bought one, and returned it. Bought another one, and returned it. Both had the same issue. You couldn't turn off "S Mode" which inhibits you from downloading anything that isn't from the Microsoft store. I couldn't download AdBlock, I couldn't download Firefox, and both were a deal breaker for me. If you want to be dictated to, by Bill Gates, on what you can and cannot do on your computer, then this is a nice machine. If not, I'd give it a hard pass. I did by a Lenovo and the BB Geek Squad guys were great.

    The machine itself was a joy, but unless you want to feel like Bill Gates is in your living room (and everywhere else you take this laptop), Windows 11 is NOT for you. We returned it because of the overall intrusive nature of the system.

    Great windows laptop for the on sale price. Easy to setup, fast start, if you need more memory then investing in a external hard drive would be a good idea.

    not a fan of the keys, runs fairly decent but not as good as it could be for the cost. i've bought a $100 laptop in 2022 that ran just as well as this.

    I bought this product for my Grandson to take to college with him. The guy that sold this to me was awesome. He was very knowledgeable, and explained a lot of things to me in detail. Keep up the good work.

    I use this for remoting into my office computer and it connects quickly and works great. The battery life is actually about 4-1/2 hours when in use (not on standby).

    I purchased this for my spouse and it has the large keys on the keyboard that are easy for him to see. (AMD patient). It is very different from what he is used to but he will get the hang of it.

    We are a homeschool family. All 4 kids use this computer. It is great at multi tasking, battery life, and display. We would purchase it again. We have had no issues.

    The touchpad gets stuck or doesn’t work a majority of the time. The battery life is horrible. Save your money and buy anything else

    Really enjoying this laptop. Boots up very fast and has more than enough computing power for streaming and web browsing. Replaced an 11 year old HP and this one is meeting my expectations so far.
