Pretty good configuration for a student. Reasonable power, very light (2.5 lbs), and good battery life (no need to bring charger to school). The build quality is also really good - almost premium. My 7th grader really likes it. As long as you understand that this is meant to be a nice budget laptop for standard PC tasks (no AAA gaming), you'll like this laptop.

Since I retired I no longer need a workhorse computer, just a lightweight, efficient laptop that I can take along on my travels. Yes, there are lighter models and more powerful ones, but at the price, it's very appealing.
Its touch screen isn't the most sensitive, so I often have to use the cursor. The screen is clear and color is quite true.

The set-up was easier than I imagined. I usually have one of my kids set up my computers for me, but it was not necessary this time. It took no time at all to get it running, i had a Surface for work and recently retired (at 70 years old). Now I have it as my primary home computer. Love it and the portability. So lightweight. Great buy!!

If you are looking for a good light latop for performing daily office tasks/ are a student who need a daily driver which is portable this is the best laptop out there. The laptop is light and fast which would save a lot of frustration that other windows laptops have. I will highly recommend this to anyone.

I bought this laptop to work from home and take workshop classes. I’m a teacher and use programs like word, ppt, and Canva. So far so good. It works smooth and it’s pretty quick, too. I love my laptop and being 12.4 inches it’s very easy for me to carry around anywhere.

I should have bought a larger screen model, My vision is not the best I have to enlarge font for visibility which puts the sentences off screen and then I have to scroll back and forth to see everything. I like the weight but size too small for me.
Charger falls out easily and find it overheats.
Otherwise I like it. Battery does not hold as long as indicated.
Love the size

It is pretty nice and easily portable. I have had no problems at all. it just heats up a bit but not too bad. I recommend this to people that want a more on budget surface, when it comes to school. The color is subtle (I got the sage) but still pretty.

Great small & convenient computer. The color is a very unique and classy green-grey shade. The performance is great. Updates a little too often honestly but I can get past It for the performance.

I bought this computer for my son on 2023 and as of today (2025) no issues at ALL. My son loves it and now I am planning to buy the same one for my daughter to use for college. If I can give it more than 5 stars definitely I will.

I knew what to expect from this laptop in terms of power, graphics, etc. but I am extremely pleased with its ease of use, light weight, and responsive keyboard. It has lived up to all of the expectations and more.
