    We purchased this laptop for our twelve-year-old daughter and she loves it. However, she is not a gamer, so she didn’t need a $1000 laptop.

    Alright, here goes. This computer was a total letdown. It was slow right out of the box, with apps taking forever to load and videos constantly buffering. The battery life was abysmal, barely lasting two hours on a full charge. The keyboard was uncomfortable to type on, and the trackpad was unresponsive at times. The worst part was the customer service, which was unhelpful when I tried to resolve these issues. I definitely wouldn't recommend this computer to anyone.
