I was really hoping this laptop would meet my expectations. I researched it for 2 weeks comparing it to other options. Each time I’d try to find a reason not to buy it since the price was so much less than others with comparable specs. Well finally went for it. Boy did it exceed expectations. It is blazing fast, extremely light and well crafted.Now if you’re looking for a backlit keyboard and an alloy case(it’s plastic) don’t get it. So if you are rough on your laptop, it might not be for you.  But if you want performance and elegant design, this is definitely the best bang for the buck I have seen.
