I had this laptop for about 4 years now and I slowly started noticing problems with it. First thing I noticed was the battery didn't last long enough I had to charge it after 45 mins of use, just 1 year in with it. Secondly, it was becoming slow and yes, I do keep up with updates at all times. I rarely use it unless I'm applying for jobs or use the search engine to something important. So not so long after that my charger was not charging due to the core having some type of internal wire damage (not sure how that happened) when I don't tie it up. I had very high expectations but nevertheless I didn't give up on it. I do like how light and thin it is, the HD feature is really nice and looks crystal clear. The keyboard lights up so nice! At the end of the day, it does what it needs to do, I just wish it didn't have these problems when I barely use it.
