Item weight of 3.9lbs in the “technical description” is **highly inaccurate**. Im so happy I bought this laptop despite this 3.9lbs inaccuracy, as this laptop is extremely lightweight and portable – probably under 2lbs. As another reviewer said $1300+ laptops are often crapshoots — my mid2012 Macbook Pro gave me constant headaches since 6months after purchase– problems that even Applecare Warranty couldn’t fix and Applecare refused to replace it so essentially i wasted $1500 on my easily overheated Macbook Pro and never wanted to waste $1500 on a basic laptop again (next expensive laptop will be Razer Blade or Gigabyte AERO). This time around, I needed a basic laptop for trading software programs that take up a lot of memory, so I bought 2 of these and will probably buy 1 more as I need to run 6 programs total so Ill split 2 programs on each. My experience: nicely packaged, arrived with a full battery, setup in under 5 minutes, it recognized all nearby wifi options (and a lot of cheap laptops don’t recognize wifi signals) , i downloaded the software that I needed in a few minutes. Everything set up fast and seamlessly. Trackpad super easy to use. It sometimes briefly/momentarily lags when I type but i also type 90wpm …. I bought the $50 two year Asurion insurance just in case it turns out to be a lemon in 6month+ . For $270 , with insurance, i can buy 3 and be happy using these for specific, niche purposes or as reliable backups. Ive tried other cheap laptops and this has the User Experience of an expensive Apple laptop (im much happier with 3 of these than 1 2019 Macbook Air like my sister just bought). Only real CON is it could be brighter (it definitely has lower brightness than both Macbook Pro and Macbook Air). I will be running the software this upcoming week Monday-Friday for 8hours/day– so unless when I actually run the software it freezes, crashes, or overheats excessively — I’ll remain a happy camper. Will keep the actual functionality updated in the comments. But so far, thanks JUMPER!!! Please, fix your 3.9lbs description (which might scare buyers off like it almost scared me off) because for the price, size, *specs* (6gb ram), and weight this laptop rocks!

Was not expecting much from this when purchased, but I gotta say it works REALLY well. Without all the bells and whistles of useless programs and features most people will never use, this is PERFECT for a student or even your elderly parents. Simple and easy to use and lighter and more compact than an Apple of the same size.

I did install Firefox because I really don’t like Microsoft; AND I DID NOT WANT TO PAY $600 plus FOR AN APPLE…and it runs way better than the installed Microsoft Edge version of Explorer. Able to have 10 tabs open, doing various things and performance was not compromised. Whether keeping up with your social media to Streaming video full HD video, this laptop SHINES!!! The display is simply beautiful.

While it doesn’t have a ton of hard drive space, that’s what external drives are for. I have been storing ALL of my files on one since I had a massive HD fail on me about 15 years ago. And if you need word processing there are many great FREE programs you can use. And the battery life is BETTER than my daughter’s Apple!!!

YOU CANNOT BEAT THE PERFORMANCE & EASE OF USE FOR THE MONEY!!! So stop thinking and click that “BUY NOW” button!

Really good quality laptop for the price very good . Internet connection is wonderful , I use this laptop mainly for school so it has everything I need and Netflix works amazing

Daughter has been using this about a week now, and we are very satisfied with the purchase

The significant Pros
– Full HD screen has good clarity, color rendering. Anti-glare matte finish
– Viewing angle is adequate for our purpose.
– Keyboard is the expected “chicklet” type, not bad.
– 6GB RAM is more than others in this price range.
– 64GB is enough to handle any large Windows Updates.
– TF card slot means expandable mass-storage.
– Processor is quick enough, much better than what she had been using.
– Slim and light, easy to slip into a backpack.
– Metal top cover gives a nice feel and a bit more protection for the screen.
– Comes with full Windows Home, not the Windows S usually included with no-frills laptops.

The minor Cons are
– Contrast is not fantastic. A black screen has obvious backlight bleeding through the edges and corners. But this is not noticable during actual use.
– The parts you touch — palm rest keyboard– are not the highest quality material, though they are adequate.

So while this is not the cheapest of the cheap-no-frills laptops, I feel it is the best value for the money and would recommend it. I might buy another one for other family members, whose utility laptops are getting rather dated.

It is smaller than I usually get, but the screen is so clear that I have no problem seeing the screen. It is really a great computer at a great price. I’m really glad that I decided to take a chance on it. I absolutely love it.

This is a really good computer for the price. Don’t let the chinese/japanese characters scare you. It boots up pretty fast, maybe 10 seconds at most. It’s made out of aluminum and feels sturdy while staying light. The bottom heats up but wouldn’t burn your legs, maybe sweat. There’s some bloatware but it’s easy to uninstall. One of the things I don’t like is the coloring, the WHOLE computer is the same material and color except for the trackpad (which is also nice). The fact that its 6gb of ram and 64gb of memory should make you buy it considering the price. It lags sometimes, but its bearable, you won’t have programs crashing though. I’m using this mostly for watching youtube and school, so it works for that. I haven’t played any games with it but I wouldn’t recommend it because there’s only 64 gb and the processor isn’t the strongest. 4.5/5
