Consumer review (newegg.com)

Great Value

 

Im not sure if 3 usb ports is typical but it isnt enough for me so i had to buy an external port for it. i think bloatware is a standard among most laptop brands so w.e. i have eternal speakers so i dont care much about the speakers being bad. This...

small and portable. hdmi out. dedicated graphics card. fast processor

speakers arnt all that good. a lot of bloatware that is difficult to uninstall. 3 usb ports. screen isnt the best quality

Best Bang for the Buck

 

This laptop is one of the best deal on newegg right now, I went to best buy and felt bit sorry for the poor folks that were shelling out money for overpriced laptops for 700-800 that had intergrated graphics and i3s or low end i5s lol.

i5 480m is a great fast little processor ; HD 6470m - is a decent gpu for gaming at medium settings in most games such as crysis, high on older games such as half life 2 ep 1+2, ccs, cod4 etc ; 7200 rpm hdd - it is rare to find a 7200rpm hdd in this...

The usual bloatware ; What I found highly unusual was the complete lack of dedicated hotkeys you usually find on laptops, the most annoying being the lack of a volume button but im just being picky at this point, its nothing big
