In the market for a new laptop. Wanted to keep it under $500. Had never used an AMD processor, before. Let's just say that I will NEVER buy another laptop/PC powered by an AMD processor, again.If you only need a laptop for word processing, emailing or just general use, then this will do. This is NOT a gaming laptop. You will want to upgrade to at least 8GB of RAM, to help mask the performance drop you'll experience, when running multiple programs/videos.I purchased this laptop in April 2021, so I gave it some time to see if it got better after updates/hotfixes. It didn't. I put it on the market and got a laptop with an Intel chip. This laptop was not for me.Pros:-Decently priced for what you get-SSD > HDD if you enjoy speed/efficiency-15" vibrant screen-Backlit keyboardCons:-AMD Ryzen 3 3200U processor will regularly hit 70 degree temps when handling multiple tasks-AMD Radeon Vega 3 integrated graphics card has an ongoing issue with washing out black colors (in videos and pictures). Had to tweak a Google Chrome flag to bypass this. As of this post, no fix is available from AMD. Also struggles (frame drops) to play 4K content in full screen mode. Plays fine in standard view.-4GB of RAM is comical. Even after upgrading to 8GB, the system showed a minimal increase in performance.
