Must buy a separate camera
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I thought the camera and microphone were built in the laptop but they aren’t. You must purchase them separately. Other than that, the laptop works fine

Posted .Thank you for your review! The Kano PC does have a built-in microphone. Safety and privacy are big priorities for us and our users. This is why we decided not to include an onboard webcam on the Kano PC. You can use any Windows 10 compatible webcam with your Kano PC. Best wishes, Team Kano
Great for kids!
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Actually I am an adult that wanted to try the Kano at $99. The laptop is clunky but easy to build and update. I am suprised at the performance. Basic tasks are easily done without a problem. Screen is nice and the clear back is cool. In addition it comes with a nice manual. Overall very worthwhile.

For young students
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.A good starter laptop, but no camera for zoom classes. It has a cheap feel to it, and required some assembly. We ended up returning it.

Posted .Hi there, Thanks for your review! I'm sorry to hear that you returned your Kano PC. Safety and privacy are big priorities for us and our users and that is why we decided not to include an onboard webcam on the Kano PC. You can use any Windows 10 compatible webcam with your Kano PC. Also, the Kano PC is a buildable two-in-one laptop and tablet, so some basic assembly is required. Apologies if this was not clear from the product page. Best wishes, Team Kano

works perfect

No, I would not recommend this to a friend Nice first laptop for children.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this for an 8-year old grandson as a learning tool. I checked the specs and assembly requirements before purchase and they seemed adequate for him. Both of his parents agreed. The day after he was already playing with the coding system and enjoying it.
I would recommend this to a friendWorks fine if your expectations are realistic
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I purchased this not for it's intended purpose, but as an inexpensive and ruggedized machine to use in specific situations. The system itself is exactly what you'd expect and works fine, however right clicking using the touchpad on the keyboard is unnecessarily painful and very hit-or-miss. It's the only real negative thing I have to share about this system.

Fun item for kids, good starter Windows system
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Pretty cool item, 9 year old had fun building it and learning about the components. Will likely need to buy a MicroSD card for extra storage. Comes in Windows S mode but you can get out of that with a few clicks if you want. I would buy another one.
