Having a 500 nit 1080p ips is absolutely stellar at this price. This is essentially the perfect notebook for the avg budget shoper. Its almost worth it to have as a backup at that price

In italy, from amazon, this exact one is 420 euros

[rafaelshirakura]

I use one for daily work programming and college studying. With Linux it gets really good and perfect for it's price!
Love from Brazil!!!

[bahamutci]

The ram not being upgradable is a deal breaker.

[Oikosist]

This is what we need from you, man! good, reasonable priced products. Slow down with the external gpu crap. Just my opinion

[pweddy]

$220?
That’s not much more than a Raspberry Pi kit with a power supply, keyboard, mouse and case?

Edit:
As soon as you add a MONITOR to the cost that's extra $100 minimum. You can't buy Rp5 w/8gb of Ram, a monitor, Mouse, Keyboard and power supply for less than $220.

Cost effective tech like this is how I found this channel way back when. This was cool.

[gdjaybee]

Unupgradable 8GB RAM default should be banned and made illegal. This is against my religion.

[DatOneGuy]

i have the vivobook 15 model above this one w a r5 7520u 16 gb ddr5 and a gorgeous OLED 1080p screen. its a perfect laptop for everyday use, just fast enough to surf the web, watch media and edit documents on. i dont desire to game on my laptop (although it will handle most emulation of older consoles and older pc titles just fine), so it fits my use case perfectly

[madmod]

This is what I was looking at for a budget igpu setup for playing older games like fallout New Vegas, runescape, and some war thunder. I'm still rocking an old i3, 8gb dual channel setup xD

[Mr.darken]

This seems perfect for cloud gaming rather than actual gaming. Decent price though. Looks like it has no problem running older games and indie games. Probably could run emulation as well depending on which you run on it.

[needsLITHIUM]

I would love to see this thing tested with Linux. Preferably, both a distro like Bazzite for gaming, but also with a distro like Linux Mint or MX Linux, to see how well desktop Linux works for gaming, along with the "everyday use" stuff like in Windows. TBH, I would love to see more of that desktop Linux testing in general, on more devices.

I know this is a gaming channel but when it comes to reviewing laptops a video render/transcoding test would be helpful. A lot of us are doing some kind of video work on our laptops and PCs.

[pmk]

ETA PRIME, who is we? I've never heard you mention other people working on this channel.

[saysbadman]

It would have been nice to see some emulation, and battery runtime. I am sure batocera would run great on this. Im also fairly impressed with the screen. I think the last cheap laptop I bought had an ugly TN panel that took some maneuvering to find the sweet spot for the screen.

[gonzled]

And the vivobook 14 i3 1215u will run circles around this laptop simply because RAM can be upgraded. I bought one at 279 usd then upgraded it using an 8 Gb stick from Crucial and the difference in performance is substancial.

[hypercube]

I got a Ryzen 6000 laptop for $200 for the wife, and swapped in 16GB DDR4 and the thing is awesome.

[bogdantucu]

I bought my wife this laptop, me working in IT my entire life, having servers at home, 5900x PC, working with multi CPU servers. This thing blew my mind. This thing is actually overkill for what my wife will be using it for. I got the Ryzen 5 7430U version. It was about $450 in Romania

[lloydc]

Be interested to see how a Linux Distro runs, use Zorin Core Disto on my old spare AM3+ system, and was quite impressed with gaming results using Steam Proton, as appears I'll be experiencing a few weeks hospital stay from surgery, and on my budget can't afford much in $$$, if older games run as you show wondering how they'd run on Linux (as most games I've tried run better than on Windows in FPS, although not all) would sure beat being stuck watching TV and looking out the window, thanks for the review

[kollin]

I just bought this exact model at my local target. THEY HAD IT FOR $110!!! Couldn’t pass it up
