Are you kidding me? Less than $180 for all this power and hours of battery?
By Nick on Reviewed in the United States on May 10, 2024
I've been out of the game for a while and haven't bought a new computer in decades. I know this isn't new, but I am absolutely blown away at what $180 bought me. This thing is light, sleek and efficient. It plays 4k 60fps videos easily, both on youtube and VLC. I've been burning off a full charge since 6pm. It's 9pm right now and I'm still at 75% and I've been playing videos, browsing the web and installing apps since I started. This is insane. The unit looks practically brand new. The battery appears to be the original Dell-branded battery. It's clean, spotless. [EDIT] I did find one nickel-sized spot on the monitor where the colors are slightly faded. You can only tell on a plain solid-color background and only if it's a lighter color. My desktop is currently plain black and I can't tell. Even when it's noticeable, it's barely noticeable. [END EDIT] The only thing that was even a bit shady was the Windows 10 install. Today is 5/9/24. According to sysinfo, the install date is from 2019. I doubt this laptop has sat for 5 years. I have a feeling the seller just deleted the users and made a new one. There was no set up or Welcome to Windows like a fresh install. For me, this is completely irrelevant. It's getting a fresh install in a couple days. But you might care. This is beyond an incredible value. Anyone older than 40 will understand that computers 1/1000th of this power used to be $5000 (in 1980's dollars).

Shot in the Dark
By Jordan on Reviewed in the United States on March 14, 2024
Okay here's the deal. I'm not attempted to return these yet but I will be and assuming Amazon's returns work okay then I say give it a shot and see what you get. Here's the issue, these quote on quote refurbished laptops, seem to have failed in some way for the previous owner and that one individual thing was replaced, as a result not a single one of these laptops has a hard drive from the same manufacturer not a single one of these laptops has Ram kits from the same manufacturer it wouldn't even surprise me if there's mismatched speeds in these things based on the different specs on every device I'm guessing they're put together out of a spare parts bin. I'm not really sure what I was expecting to get for 200 bucks but I did expect some sort of uniformity because with this level of variation why not just buy five different laptops from five different manufacturers. They're also appear to be keyboard issues on two of them as well as input lag on one of them if you do end up buying one of these things expect problems with whatever parts are not stock and check your keyboard carefully. Check the video for more information.
