Benchmarks for this very basic Windows laptop were surprisingly good in some respects. The drive and ram outperformed expectations and make the machine pleasant for checking email and filling out forms. However, while single core performance on this particular Ryzen was just fine, dual-core was less fine. That makes this model less versatile than what you'd get for a couple hundred more. A lot less versatile.Web-browsing is good except for a few sites, so if what you are looking for is an inexpensive way to do one task at a time, this should be great - especially for the money. If you need to run your accounting software or edit video or do more than one processor or ram intense tasks, this won't make you happy.
