I highly recommend this laptop for students especially the programmers. I am using this laptop for the past 6 months and has not received any problems yet. The keyboard is ergonomically designed. Display is good. With i5 processor along with 8 GB DDR4 memory and 2 GB Nvidia graphics is all one can aspire for the best performance. The battery backup is excellent. it lasts for minimum of 8-10 hours. I usually charge it hardly once a day. Its complete value for money.
