Laptop - price

shoes43

I have looked at this laptop and was wondering if anyone has used this brand before - it would be just used for typing up a few documents, checking e-mails, netflix and general browsing of the net.

Well known brand. I think you could do better for that price though.

So much wrong with that laptop, I don't know where to start.

Ultimately, all it's fit for is the bin. A pentium n6000, 4GB ram and just 64GB storage? it will struggle to even start up day 1, let alone be suitable for running anything. And certainly will struggle to even start up in the years to come as windows updates.

...hence it is on S mode

There are positives and negatives, but in general its for "v low budget" devices where everithing is on web/cloud. price tag does not sound "v low" and i would not pay 250 for it, TBH would not even be looking at it

but this could be just me

I would not buy any laptop with minimum 15 inch screen, make sure its at least 4gig ram and it can be upgraded to 8 gig ram, 14 inch is too small for Netflix,

I'd prefer to buy a 17 inch laptop on adverts ie secondhand than say spend 400euro on 15inch laptop. Powercity sometimes have special offers demo laptops or laptops without all the packaging at say 30 per cent off normal price see Powercity.ie. I bought one a few years ago it was in as new condition . I used it for 4 years. Model hp pavilion.

I bought a chrome book 14 inch its fine for web browsing cost 260 euro in argos

12 hours battery life

in a years time I'll buy a 17 inch laptop or maybe build a pc
