    I would recommend this laptop, but it is pretty good because it’s not so good at games. Writing a document on it was it was best for and it never had lags on it. It is pretty good on many things and watching YouTube on it was also good too. This laptop also has the keys I should most likely use. One consideration from it is that the screen somehow fades away a little bit, which is what I don’t want to happen. I would recommend this to a friend and this laptop is recommended to those who like writing documents.

    I purchased this laptop as a gift for my 7 year old daughter as a Christmas gift. Currently she uses it for school programs and gaming. I have no complaints; due to her being autistic with low patience, the use of the laptop is a breeze! Also, I have found myself using it to do research! I like that it is an overall Chromebook so that makes it easier with parental settings. I would definitely recommend this for child and adult use!!

    Great laptop for $120 (On sale)

    I bought this laptop after my last laptop crashed in the middle of my last semester of college. Great laptop for its price!! It can be a little slow and lag at times. It had issues with uploading my senior photos, and a few other bigger tasks, but at least it made it through at somepoint. For a basic and cheap computer, it's very nice and kinda fancy (in display) in my opinion. I STRONGLY recommend this laptop for college students, especially if you hardly have any money saved to afford another laptop. This is something cheap and convenient for studies.

    I’m not the best with computers as this is my first one and sometimes the audio cuts out and I have to restart it but for the price and a year of warranty I’m not too concerned and everything else works wonders.

    Good laptop for the price

    For the price it’s a really great laptop. It gets the job done, you can have all your necessary apps on it (at least everything for college) and it’s really big which is nice if you have bad eyes like me. The downsides of it are kind of to be expected: the screen isn’t the most modern and clear, it gets slow if you do too much on it and I wouldn’t necessarily try to download an emulator to play games on it or download sims 4. I wouldn’t recommend this laptop to any computer science majors or people that need a laptop to work on for these exact reasons, but otherwise it’s definitely worth the price.
