AVOID THIS LAPTOP. The CPU is a joke and jumps to 90-100% usage just by opening one tab on google chrome. It was so bad I sent it back to PB tech to get it looked at because I thought something was faulty. They gave it back saying it's just the way it is. This laptop is that s*** that the CPU will max out by just by lightly surfing the web. The battery life is also terrible where you can expect to only get around 2-3 hours of light usage before needing to charge it.

If all this wasn't bad enough, for some reason PB tech increased the price to $740. I purchased it when the original price was around $640 and I still think I got ripped off. AVOID THIS LAPTOP.

this thing is a piece of crap running at 100 percent in 1 chrome tab this thing is a piece of crap running at 100 percent in 1 chrome tab

This laptop is a fat piece of crap. It cannot run anything with the CPU always being at 100 percent with just one chrome tab open-I am not joking. It overheats nearly instantly and the fans sound like a jet engine. By the time I open up the computer to use it takes a good 10 minutes before I can open my first tab. The battery is less than 2 hours as well making it useless. Don't buy it you will waste your money. This laptop is a fat piece of crap.

I am very glad I bought this product. I have used it for two weeks and it performs well. I am very glad I bought this product. I have used it for two weeks and it performs well.

They do work. We brought these laptops for our kids for high school. Way too slow with processing so ended up buying other ones. Best suited for basic email checking etc or ideal for someone with a lot of patience. No gaming/large apps etc. Best to spend more money. They do work.

I bought this laptop for my wife, thinking it would be able to do what she needed it for. Boy was I wrong.
It's PAINFULLY slow, runs hot, and struggles to do even the most basic of tasks.

Expect it to lag when opening chrome. While it might boot fast enough, just running basic apps is painful.

I've updated every driver possible, OS is the latest 21h1, with all the patches.
still runs like crap.

Great value for money. Great value for money.

Works really well so far! It is very fast Works really well so far! It is very fast

I told the sales guy I needed a computer that was reasonably fast. In my line of work I need several tabs open edited at the same time. This computer is so slow it keeps asking me to kill tabs. My old Lenovo B50 is faster and this is supposed to have better specs. Another rep told me that this operating system is really outdated and I shouldn't have been sold this based on how I am using it. This device is only okay for checking emails and doing really basic tasks. I told the sales guy I needed a computer that was reasonably fast.

The price was amazing and so achievable as a full time student. The laptop is serving all the purposes and I love the larger screen option. The price was amazing and so achievable as a full time student. The laptop is serving all the purposes and I love the larger screen option.

I specifically bought this for study and it has been perfect, not slow at all.

I don't use it for anything else like Netflix or OnDemand so unsure what quality is like in those areas.

However great product, affordable price and quick ordering while in L3 (click&collect ready in a couple hours). I specifically bought this for study and it has been perfect, not slow at all.
