Good value and lightweight. The all plastic case feels a little cheap after using Samsung Chronos, and Dell Precision Laptops with metal housings, but this didn’t cost anywhere near what those models cost and is also much lighter. Screen is bright and keyboard is large and comfortable. Optical drive is a plus since a lot of slimlines are not including them. Battery life is good at 2.5 hours or so for web browsing and regular tasks like data entry, office productivity. Case is matte finish and doesn’t show fingerprints or getslimy to the touch when using the palmrest or trackpad.
