    Good laptop for simple schoolwork, sadly the battery didn’t hold up as much as advertised and I only had 6 tabs open, but still got good enough juice for 7 hrs with battery saving settings.

    I have had a Dell Inspiron for the last 10 years and thought this would be an upgrade. The only upgrade is the speed. The battery life does not last as long as advertised and I am having trouble transferring my files from my Dell and my photos taken on my iPhone do not auto load into the photos file like they did with my Dell. I have been trying to follow the instructions but it is for an android phone. I am thinking about returning to Best Buy and maybe get an HP.

    Pretty does what I need it to do. Fully functional. Three stars because the speakers and video are low quality. I have to connect an external speaker to watch a movie.

    This is perfect for basic functions like emails and Microsoft office products; however, I would not recommend to anyone trying to perform tasks that require more processing power. There is consitent freezing and low performance, but this will do the trick for the simple tasks.
