    So this was my first W10 laptop and I specifically chose the AC wireless adapter. So that is good. Startup was pretty easy and we were up and running. Internet browsing is pretty slow. I'm thinking of buying a USB wireless adapter since it's so slow. Some items take a while to process. So it's not very fast, but my wife uses it for browsing online and email so no big deal.

    It's easy to use and get acquainted with quickly. My son is required to take a computer to school every day and this does the job nicely -- it packs well in his backpack, has enough memory for him to open applications and store all his work (which was a problem with a smaller "backpack" friendly computer).

    I do not have issue with the computer, I just really do not like Windows 10. So I really cannot say anything good or bad. Windows 10 firewalls proved to be very trying with using google chrome and facebook. I had to bring it into the geek squad to figure out the issues. For the price it was not a bad deal, I just dont like windows 10.

    Just what my wife was looking for!

    We have bought 3 laptops recently, one for me, one for my mother in-law and now this one for my wife. For the price, I have to say this is by far the best one out of the 3 and I am quite jealous. This laptop had everything my wife was looking for in a laptop and was a very reasonable price. Unlike so many other laptops around this price, this Lenovo has a great keyboard and touchpad and that was a HUGE selling point. I have always been a fan of Toshiba products, but comparing my Toshiba laptop to my wife's Lenovo, I will make sure my laptops are Lenovo from now on.

    Requires extensive knowledge of Windows operating systems to learn Windows 10. Too slow, freezes frequently. Returned to store after a little over two weeks. We were too late to get a refund, but we did get a store credit for the item.

    I bought this laptop 4 years ago for the sole purpose to work from home. I have had not 1 single problem with this laptop at all whatsoever. Mind you, I only use it to dial into work. I store no data on this laptop, don't play games, use social media or stream anything. but it carries the load of autocad and other bulky programs I use while dialed into the office day after day after day. Suits my needs and hasn't failed me!

    I purchased my new laptop earlier this month. I am extremely happy with this laptop and the brand ASUS. I had an ASUS laptop before I purchased this one. No issues at all and the price is worth it!!

    I purchased my laptop as an open box unit online. Even though it didn't come to cleaned from all previous information. The Geek Squad did a great job at restoring it and make sure I was happy. I was a little skeptical at first but the unit works great and I saved a ton of money.

    This is a solid computer. If you don't like big computers, this is not for you. The A8 processor can be sluggish. Not good for running multiple programs requiring processing speed. Overall a decent buy for the money.
