I am not a computer expert but I have used a number of laptops over the last twenty five years or so but I’m not into the finer points of speed, memory, etc. What I can say is this computer seems entirely adequate for my use which is only for home use now. I use it when saving stuff to thumb drives, etc or saving large files, etc. There are certain websites that require use of a computer vs iPads and smartphones as well. I use my iPhone or iPad 99% of the time simply because the phone is always with me and I prefer the IOS operating system. I did not buy an Apple computer due to price and will no longer buy any Apple product since they are produced in China which is propping up the Russian invasion of Ukraine. This laptop is reasonably fast and easy enough to use. The screen quality is excellent and the battery life is great. I have been using it for about a year now with no problems although I have used it very little relative to my phone.
