    This computer is 2 days old and is basically not useable. Opening anything takes a minimum of 5 minutes and half the time crashes the computer. My poor son got this as a Christmas gift and is heartbroken he hasn’t been able to use it. I tried downloading all updates overnight and it did not help at all.

    excellent in speed & clarity of picture. only downside is the weight; it’s the heaviest laptop iv ever had. also, battery life is awful! i keep it shut down; use it maybe 2-3 hrs a day, but having to charge every 3-4 days. other than that, i absolutely love it!

    This Laptop is literally the worst one I have ever purchased. I have fought this thing for 5 hours today and still don't have it set up. It is so slow. I had to even factory reset it to get a little more speed which didn't help much. Do not purchase. This is even bad for a 9 year old to use
