Did you update the BIOS? Mine was the same way but I realized Windows Defender was constantly running and the BIOS needed to be updated. Much less intrusive now
This laptop says it has "Windows 10 in S mode." I had to look that up since I've never heard of "S mode" and S mode sounds like you're forced to use Microsoft Edge and you can only install apps from the Microsoft store...ewww.

Fortunately, it says you can switch from S mode to regular Windows 10 home very easily, which would be the first thing I would do if I ever got this laptop.
I believe that one had a 720P screen.
This one is 1080p.

Not sure if these have been updated since November as last year, but if they haven't, you will need to update the BIOS, as there have been some speed improvements that allowed the laptop run at its proper speed.
When I did mine, I got a blank screen afterwards. For some reason I knew it did not brick my laptop. So I took the bottom case off and took out the CMOS battery, as well as disconnecting the laptop battery, held down the power button for 2 minutes, while using a screwdriver to short the battery slot.
Booted up into BIOS afterwards, with new update installed.

So it's plugged in with no batteries, running off electricity, when you used the screw driver?

Is that just bypassing the button battery, ignoring it?

Did they ever fix the crappy wifi card issue?
I know that I can go out and buy a cheap card to replace the one inside, but those pci pins are fragile, and might break if not super careful.
Some youtube 4k hdr 60fps, like the battlefield 5 videos, do not play at all in firefox, but will sort of play in opera and chrome, though it is unbearable to watch. 1440p plays like a charm though.
The screen is beautiful. The keyboard is not for heavy use.

Is this the same one from BF last year? I replaced the wifi card and I still get random disconnections that require me to restart. But just not as often as with the original card.

I got this from the BF deal. I upgraded the ram to 8gb and it improved the speed tremendously. I have no problem whatsoever with this laptop.
