## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great laptop overall
*by  on Reviewed in the United Kingdom 5 September 2025*

Performs wonderfully. Very little damage, with only a few feet missing, has a touchscreen display which i didnt even know was available with the laptop, and was very clean upon delivery. Battery life is about as expected, 5-6 hours of use. Overall a great product, and very worth the purchase. Laptop experiences very little input lag, and opens apps very quickly.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent condition, great value
*by  on Reviewed in the United Kingdom 10 May 2025*

Absolutely fantastic laptop for the price. Only a couple of tiny marks on the body, which are barely noticeable. Keyboard is clean with no wear on the keys, trackpad works with no issues. The screen is perfect, no dead pixels. It is touchscreen as well which I was not expecting.Came pre-installed with Windows 11, easy to setup and get ready for use. Start up is quick and it's ready to use almost immediately. As a laptop for work/business its perfect.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great tablet
*by  on Reviewed in the United Kingdom 1 July 2026*
