    This was a great purchase considering the price and value. It does all basic and some advanced tasks without any issues on Windows 11. Worth the money.

    Not sure if the laptop had a problem or if it just functions that way. But the laptop was super slow. It took over 15 min for the laptop to fully boot up and it took applications just as long to open up.

    This laptop is very good for its price, Yes the eMMC is slow but if you swap it out for a NVMe SSD it runs flawlessly. I got this laptop for school and it has not let me down. I did upgrade to a SSD and it runs perfect.
