I shopped and talked to many about this computer and thought I had found a good replacement for my 7-year-old Apple MacBook, I was wrong.
I like the options, such as the detachable keyboard, windows 10, battery life, ease of use, and being able to use it as a tablet but the computer has the poorest ability to connect to the internet of any computer I have ever had.
I thought I was having internet problems at my house (google fiber), it got so bad I called google out to check on my internet. I was trying to watch a youtube video, use it for school, you name it, it would not stay connected. Google said everything was fine, the tech even brought his personal laptop and showed me everything was great.
He asked me when the problem started, I thought about it and it was when I bought this computer.
I pulled out my 7-year-old Apple MacBook and no internet problems, I asked my daughter if she was having issues with her schooled supplied ChromeBook, no problems at all, asked my son with his Dell Laptop, all good.
Then I started asking friends that had the same computer (the ones I had talked to before I purchased this computer), then they all started telling me, "yeah the one thing I have problems with is"...you guessed it, connecting to the internet. WHAT, are you kidding me.
I thought it was just my computer (or hoping so) I took it to the Microsoft store, they checked it out, everything fine, worked great in their store (we were 3 feet from the internet router and they told me that had boosters all over their store).
So now I have spent my money on a computer that does not connect well to the internet, so much so I'm typing this on my old MacBook.
The pros for the computer, Windows 10, great ergonomics, the tablet, the keyboard, very easy to use and type one, small, portable and great battery life.
The cons, as long as you don't need to use it with the internet or streaming video (especially streaming video), you will be fine, :-(.
One last mistake, I missed the return window and I was trying to get it working or fixed, that is my mistake.
