When you are looking for laptops on amazon you will most likely open up 20 tabs of computers. After reviews a ton of them i chose this one and it has not disappointed. Here are the things i like so far (its been a week)- Materials very sturdy, nothing cheap about it.- The button and backlight remind me of a macbook (which is a good thing)- 8gb RAM is great for  what i do (mortgage programs, googe maps, musis, youtube at same time)- Fingerprint sign-on on touchpad is really cool and conveinant.- Battery life is solid, not amazing but not bad either- Thin edges- Fan barely comes on and if it does its not loud like other people are sayingCons- its hard to open the laptop, theres no groove to put your fingers so i find myself prying it open holding it sideways
