i purchased this laptop knowing it was refurbished so I was not completely shocked that keyboard had several keys that suck or just didn't work. I returned it after learning it would take at least 90 days to get it fixed and purchased a brand new one, lesson learned.

This is my first experience with a refurb and it will be my last. I had too many issues with the touch screen to even try to make this laptop work. My advice: Buy New!

I bought this Refurbished ultra book, and the charger was for another computer, I couldn't even (obviously) turn it on.
I bought it from Mexico and I had to travel to the US to change it for a new one, such a bad experience.
I wouldn't trust in Geek Squad ever again, how can they certify a laptop, if they miss a big detail like that?
Beyond that, I can't give a review about the laptop, I didn't try it.

Touchscreen and display screen issue

After a long research and decision making, I decided to get the Samsung because of the sleek design, weight & portability.. Unfortunately the screen flickers a lot and the display zooms in and out. I decided to go to the store and after the Geek squad check it and calibrated it no avail. I decided to go to the Samsung floor where they have their display and have check almost identical with i5, with almost same model number ad it has the same symptoms with this Samsung ultrabook that I have. I approach the Samsung reps and he never seen the Ultrabook behave like that. What I have notice was when you close and open the screen, that's when the screen flickers and zooms in and out. Nice design, but poor workmanship...

If you like waiting in the returns line at Best Buy then this is your laptop.
Terrible laptop and defective. The cursor jumps around on its own wreaking havoc, highlights and deletes your text, clicks on ads, closes applications, and while you are typing the cursor jumping everywhere makes it where you are suddenly typing in the middle of previously written sentences. Best Buy and Samsung must know about this issue but they continue to sell the laptop. I purchased a 2nd unit and it had the same issue. They are trying to pawn these units off. Buyer Beware.
A:AnswerThe laptop comes with the Windows operating system, and partitions can be created provided a backup disc has been made prior to changing the partitions. This is not unique for laptops, although we do apologize for the confusion, and for what we imagine is a frustrating experience.
We hope you find something that best meets your needs, and we hope you'll considering Samsung products in the future.
--Mr.Samsung
A:AnswerYes, the software is fully restored and partitions reset.
For more information on what is detailed with a Geek Squad Certified Refurbished item, please reach out to a Best Buy salesperson or Geek Squad Agent for more details.
Thanks for your interest in Samsung laptops.
--Mr.Samsung
A:AnswerThere would be documentation that came with the laptop that would explain the warranty terms.
We do encourage you to reach out to the Best Buy Geek Squad Agents or the Samsung customer service center for more information on your warranty.
Thanks for your support of Samsung laptops.
