"I bought this laptop several months ago, and could not be more satisfied. Works great, runs multiple large memory programs such as quickbooks at the same time with no lag.
Only issue is the built in speakers are pretty weak and the buttons under the touch bad are a bit hard to click.
"
Pros: Bright display, Inexpensive, Realistic color
Cons: speakers

PostedOctober 25, 2012
"Bought in July and and the first one I had died 3 days after I bought it. Turned it off and then it never turned back on. Took it back and got it replaced and the new has been running great so I chalked the first one up to being a dud and is also why I waited to write this.
Great laptop and the screen is vibrant and bright.
The processor is strong and can run alot of games on med settings. Ex; left 4 dead. crysis 2, battlefield 3.
Big keyboard with separate keys. Big selling point for me in this price range.
Cons:
Not Bluetooth enabled.
Except for the bluetooth this laptop is a great deal with size of the screen and the amd A6 processor is stronger than it gets credit for."
Pros: Built-in speakers, Bright display, Inexpensive, Durable

"i am enjoying this laptop very much, nice big screen, speakers arent too bad, battery time is average depending on your screen brightness and performance settings. the only bad thing about this laptop and an improvement that would be highly welcome is a lit up keyboard, its not too bad typing in the dark but it would help alot. overall i am happy with my purchase and as for value it is a great laptop ."

"I have problems with the key board. When typing, the cursor will jump to random places in the sentence and I would type in front of other words. Sometimes It seems to have a mind of it's own. When pressing the space bar key the cursor jumps of the screen. It is very flaky! Otherwise the laptop performs well. I use photoshop to create complex images and it works like a dream. I just have to retype a lot! By the way, add another 4 gig of memory and this laptop cooks!"
