    It's a basic laptop that does what I it for but nothing beyond. The memory storage fills up fast so don't expect to store much music/vids on it if you have a lot of programs installed on it. I am disappointed though that I can't get any docking stations to work on the USB C-port though, because it would be nice to have both of my Dell monitors hooked up to it.

    Purchased for our kids to get them familiar with typing and using different types of software. The price was right. Upgraded the storage by inserting a mini USB flash drive and setting up that drive as the place where program files would be installed. This way the 64G internal drive wouldn't be inundated. Working great so far and the kids are enjoying the experience of having their own computer.

    I was looking for a in expensive solution for a relative that could be used as a learning platform for programming. When I saw this unit it was ideal in that it was not very expensive as well as able to run Python. So far after setting everything up it has been running the application very well. Actually it has been used since Xmas without a problem. Going forward I hope to add other uages as a learning platform as required. Overall it was not only a good buy it was the Best Buy (haha) I could have made for it's use.

    Pros: Great for emails, web-surfing, and basic documents for day to day use if you are in the market for a cheap laptop. Since I got it as a $100 black Friday sale, it was a good purchase for basic functions. Cons: Really blurry screen, Very little memory for storage

    Value-priced computer

    This is an OK value for basic stuff like web browsing, social media, etc. The build quality is quite good for a low-priced laptop. The machine does slow down considerably when doing security scans and updates, so it is a good idea to leave it on to do those things (or schedule them) when not trying to actually use the machine.

    This is a basic laptop, its what I wanted, streams Hulu, Netflix, Prime, YouTube, Facebook, seamlessly, surfing the web, checking mail, casual games, no, this is not a gaming computer, but where can you buy a brand new portable quality laptop for the deal price these days? You don't, especially with food and gas prices, I highly recommend this laptop, the keyboard is so nice, the mouse flows freely, I'm impressed. Switching out of S mode is simple, just go to Microsoft on click and its done. As for speed, any computer built on WIFI, well, its only good as your own WIFI speed, this is fast, I had multiple tabs open and playing a movie, and no buffering, no issues. Bluetooth is a plus, my acer didn't have, storage is perfect, as I use mostly the cloud, battery of course is great because its new, I don't know what more you could ask for in this basic computer, its a steal before the holiday rush.

    AS LONG AS YOU CAN GET THROUGH INITIAL STARTUP

    It was frustrating at first because its self-configuration at initial startup was anything but fast or uninterrupted. Once it finally got itself together, however, it began working fine for its main purpose, which in my case was to make Amazon Prime movies and programs available to my parents on their big screen TV.

    This has been a fine machine to use just for basic word processing an email. It only has 4 GB, but that is enough for what I’m using it for.

    This is a good laptop for students or someone that wants to surf the net and check email. I have one similar and love it for those reasons. We bought two of these for our grandchildren for Christmas. They haven't had them long enough to give very many details on battery life etc.
