I bought mine for 235$. My batter arrived fine and has been so far. It is worth that price and not the current price (over 300$) they are charging for it. My problems is 1. at around the 1 month mark the internet disconnects from wifi by itself. Most of the time you can just reconnect manually but occasionally ive had to restart the laptop over it. Its rare but it happens. This is annoying for people who take tests online or for me who actually works online for money.2. The screen. idk why or how but sometimes when i open my laptop i get dead pixels and they just spread. They seriously creep me out. Im going to have to pay for a screen replacement and hope it doesnt happen again. Theres some random dots and some random lines that go all colors from dead black to red to blue. It sucks. A screen replacement is around 70$ :( ive tried to fix it in different ways but a screen replacement is probably the best ill get. The good news is that it seems like a relatively easy screen replacement to fix.Those have been my only issues so far. The image/color on the screen is inferior but this is okay for me cuz i dont do illustration or artistic work. It is not as fast as the latest laptop but it is competitive and fast enough. The performance is just fine for me. You can tell its old in some ways by how long it takes to do certain things like boot and update, but you cant tell its an old laptop when browsing the internet so its awesome. I have to give it 3 stars for the extra money i have to spend and for things going wrong before its even been 3 months. If the price drops id say get it in addition to a newer laptop as a backup laptop. If not id look elsewhere.
