I received this laptop few days back. I wonted to buy a laptop for developing applications since I am a programmer by virtue. I like this laptops looks and brilliant build quality, when I use keyboard for typing it was smooth an d feels nice and comfy to type. It does have Intel i3 core-7100u 7th gen processor which really works faster and far better than its predecessors. This laptop is perfect for students, especially from IT background or photoshop professionals.
