    It works good but now it won’t turn on or charge. Only had it since September 2023.

    It is a decent computer for a kid to school. Just setting it up took half the storage and only runs in S mode so you have to disable that to get things that are not windows.

    Really great laptop for the price. Had some hiccups in the beginning, but once I set everything up it worked great. The only complaint I have is I have issues with zoom but that may be the internet connection more than the laptop.

    This is a opened box item but the laptop condition good. OS is not user friendly. Speed slows down a lot while on zoom meeting. Some said it's RAM not enough. My other devices that have the same RAM don't slow down. I wanted to return it but it's too late, over 15 days. I wish I knew that.

    I purchased this for my younger child kind of like a segue into seeing if he could be responsible with something of value such as a laptop, especially since he loves roblox. Over all it does what it needs to, but it is extremely slow. I know computers like thia will be slower giving the fact it doesnt have an ssd, its just a regular hard drive, but it took over an hour just for it to update everything to be able to use. Upon first using it past all the updates it continually froze. I set it aside and let it finish everything and by the next day it was fully operational. It works better now but still super slow. I would never purchase this for anyone else other than a younger child wanting to learn to use conputers. Over all it does what I need it to do, but keep in mind how frustratingly slow it will be if you purchase it.

    I bought this on Black Friday as a Christmas gift to my husband. This was going to be starter laptop for when he gets into classes. Wrapped it up and waited till 12/30 due to family traveling for holidays. The following day (12/31/23)my husband finally started the laptop up, but to our surprise, the system was VERY slow. It took about 4-5 days for the laptop to configure and do all the updates it needed. We have the fastest wifi possible due to wfh & both being avid gamers, till this day you have to wait for the page to load when you try to google anything. It’ll time out & say page not loading. Which can be a huge hassle sometimes. We’re keeping it due to the outside date for a return, given we bought this on Black Friday as a gift & waited till after Christmas to open. It works ok but Buy at your own discretion.

    I had gotten this when it was on sale so I'd say it's a good budget laptop. However it is slow to load but I wasn't expecting anything when it was only $140

    A good quality pc for light on the go use. It's as light as a feather, runs decent and the battery life is decent for what you pay. This was worth it for the price.

    I got what I paid for. It's nice to have places where the possibility of damage or theft is higher. For what I paid, I won't be devastated if something happens.

    Honestly you get exactly what you pay for. It does exactly what I need it to do which isn’t much. Lagged like crazy out of the box until I updated it which took a couple hours to fully update but it got there.

    It's a solid laptop for the price. It can run a little sluggishly at times depending on what you're trying to do or the amoubt of applications you have running, but it gets what needs to get done accomplished.

    Would not buy if i was going to use it with windows. 4gb of memory and 64gb of Emcc memory is not enough for windows. I use mine to run my 3d printer, I installed linux and it works great.

    I wanted to buy this just for my five-year-old to play educational games on. I needed it to do the most basic of basic things. I have always been a Mac user, but thought I would give this a try just for my toddler. This was the slowest and most frustrating piece of equipment I’ve ever used. The keyboard is slow the mouse is slow. The speakers are terrible, and it took about 10 minutes to even turn on, and then felt like it would freeze every other five seconds. I returned it and then went and bought a MacBook Air that was 12 years old off of Facebook market. That 12 year old laptop was the most refreshing thing I have ever operated after operating that other laptop that I had just returned.
