    Did not meet expectations

    after finally receiving this laptop from best buy and having been severely behind work from losing my previous one I was ready to get back to work. However after having it for 3 days the laptop required me to do an update so being new I followed the prompts and updated it. The update took place 5/18/2020. After the update the screen became covered in pixilated dots the cursor would not navigate the screen properly and would even go black eventually the laptop wouldn't even allow me to put in a password to get to my desk top. Geek squad at best buy would not be able to help me address my problems until 6/1/2020. Needless to say this has not helped me get caught back up with work and i now have a top of the line laptop that I cannot use. I hope best buy will either resolve this issue or replace the laptop on 6/1/2020. I would not recommend this to anyone.

    Purchased for my 70 year-old dad. Needed something that would update without future problems. Beautiful chassis. Great touchscreen display. My dad has been using for more than a month now without any hitches. Thumbs up in my opinion!

    The CPU doesn’t feel natural and has a lot of base memory usage despite having high RAM. I don’t think its set up is utilizing hardware to max ability but overall good.

    I am not an expect in laptops, but my experience with this laptop was rather below my expectation. For the price , it gives you less value. I thought it will compete against the dell xps 15.6 , since they fall in similar price range but I must say it doesn't'. Its not a bad laptop I was just disappointed with the performance. I returned for the dell xps. I think Microsoft must not just focus on beautiful design but great performance as well.

    FIRSTLY NOTE I AM VISION IMPAIRED AND THUS IS THE BASIS OF MY REVIEW. THE POWER IS AS IT SHOULD BE AS A NEW GENERATION COMPUTER. MY PROBLEM IS THE LACKOF NATIVE OR SYSTEM MAGNIFICATION AVAILABLE TO ME. IT IS THEREFORE LIMITED, IT'S MESSAGES ARE THE PREVERBIAL FINE PRINT. MAYBE I JUST CAN'T FIND IT, BUT MY LAST LAPTOP WAS EASILY DEALT WITH SO I WAS COMFORTABLE WITH IT AND ENJOYED IT.

    Within a week I had multiple BSOD instances and on MANY occasions withing the 2.5 weeks I had it, it would boot directly into UEFI. Last week i was browsing the web and it blue screened then I had to reboot and then I got UEFI and a corrupted hard drive. Best buy honored the fault and issued me a new one.

    Like the look and feel of the computer. Do not like Office 365 software. Find it cumbersome to use and not intuitive. I'd rather have my old software.
