The laptop is small and easy to carry around. Love that the screen can go all the way back. I just wish they had cases available for this model.

The laptop is made for certain applications. It doesn't have high specs but performed well for what I was trying to accomplish which was managing my home network and remoting in to family members computers to troubleshoot. In the end I felt that I needed something a bit more powerful that would be relevant for more year to come. That being said, if this is an excellent machine if your needs aren't demanding, especially if you get this on sale! (was able to get it f or $350 on sale)

I like the overall styling other than I like number keys on the side not just on the top edge. It is a little smaller than I like but is light weight. I don t like that you have to take out of S mode in order to do a download of some apps if microsoft does not have them. That is supposed to be a safety feature but to me it is a hindrence. I probably would not buy this again. It has some features that I like and the
price point was good. Perhaps I will like it better with more use as I have used it very little, but truth is I navigated back to my old Dell PC. So I have not used it enough and only had it a couple of weeks so I have no clue as to battery life or if I could really rate ot fairly.I do like the keyboard. It looks as if this one will be a "spare".

It looks good, only sometimes it does not detect the keyboard, I have to close it and reopen it. The size is very good for bringing in in your handbag. It has fingerprint unlocking, among other functions, it is good, I like it.

A great 2-in-1 solution, lighter than I thought it would be, and overall good processing speed for surfing, video streaming and some normal app use. The Thunderbolt port allows me to dock with my universal dock for extended monitor/keyboard setup, and great tablet function when folded over. I had to remove the Win 11 S mode to allow me to add other apps.

I was in the market for a new laptop and really needed one with a backlit keyboard, not only does this one have that but the finger print unlock is a great feature. The laptop also starts up really fast, and the touchscreen is a great add on! I am very happy with the laptop and would definitely get another one in the future!

I came in to see if my current laptop was upgradeable and the Tech was very kind, he looked at my laptop and informed me that it was not. I then asked if he could help me pick out another laptop I can use to do general bookkeeping, school work, etc. He showed me a few and explained the differences. I am very happy with the choice I ended up purchasing.

Purchased this for my daughter's first year of college and it's the PERFECT laptop for this. I thought about going with an i5 but now that she's used it for a couple of months, the i3 is great. There was one problem where the screen wouldn't come on and the laptop was hot but she had someone in her IT department take care of it (and it wasn't anything major) so, I'm not going to say that was the laptop.

I enjoy the ease of this computer. I especially like the finger print option to unlock! I am able to use my computer for everything I need it for-- getting on my teaching platforms, grading and writing papers, creating PowerPoint presentations and general internet searching/surfing. I'm a Google girl, so having to navigate thru Microsoft to get to Google was a little learning curve, but otherwise it doesn't bother me to do the extra step.
