I purchased this laptop over 6weeks ago and i chose to wait because with electronics, time determines its level of performance. This is a nice stylish laptop suitable for anybody regardless of their age or sex.
This laptop is Easy to set up. I was connected to the internet within 25mins, the battery life is excellent,
it is very easy to use, it comes free with 3 months antivirus and it is very good value for money.
I have given an overrall rating of 8 because I have only had it for 6weeks, had it been a year then I would be pleased
to give an overrall rating of 9. Also it does not over heat. - Bad points:
- I haven't discovered any.
