I've had the blue one for about a month or so and I like it very much. The track pad is garbage, otherwise I don't have much to complain about. Oh, the power button is where "delete" goes so expect to punk yourself a few times.

I like the feel of it, the metal feeling lid helps it not feel super cheap.

I use it for prepping 3d models for my printer, and it's very good at what I ask it to do.

BTW it does charge via USB c despite it saying data only.

Thanks for sharing this info with us. I also tried to install an NVME only SSD into the 2nd M.2 slot but it did not work.

Does anyone know how to bring up the boot menu and BIOS? I tried many common functional keys F12/F10/F2 etc but none of them works to bring up the boot menu.
Common key is Delete key

Don't buy this shit!! I got one and it's not working after 1st setup.
Did you try returning and trying another one? You might've just gotten a bad unit. Happened to me with multiple laptops, but that never put me off from trying another one.

This or the newer intel core i5 1035G1 for $70 more? Thanks for your input, Slickers!

http://www.walmart.com/ip/Gateway.../546777455

Is it worth the extra $70?

If it's mostly for studying, youtube, etc, i would say save the money. You won't notice a difference.

What's the wifi on this thing and how's the camera? 1.0mp sounds terribly low quality(?)

Looking at this for nephew in middle school and to be used for school.
For a budget laptop, i expect a wifi 5 card in there. Fine for school.

1mp is about a 1280x1024 resolution. Unless the teacher needs to see the pimples on his face, it should be fine Smilie it won't be awesome, but it'll get the job done (teacher will know he's there)

I don't think you can really do much better for this price.

I've had the blue 14in for a while. It's a value laptop. If you can't understand that, feel free to spend more.

My observations:
Charges via USB-C pretty fast depending on your charger.
Foresee is SSD, not NVMe.
I put a NVMe into 2nd slot, no go. Put it into primary - works fine. Put Foresee into 2nd slot, works fine/both at same time.
No 4k via HDMI, only 1080P. At 4k it detects but won't send display.
Fan is kind of loud. I'm ok w/that b/c my work laptop is a freaking jet engine Frown
Doesr usb-c support alt-dp for external monitor?

Do these come with any bloatware? Is it worth doing a fresh windows install?

Maybe get the refurb SD for $305 if you're on a budget?

In for one. I'm impatiently waiting for ryzen 5000 series to hit laptops and will spend real money when that happens.. but at $350 and its double or more the performance of my current thinkpad... USB-C charging too!

It's completely worthless because of no GPU. Your $80 smartphone can do everything this laptop can do. So no, don't buy any laptop unless it has a dedicated GPU.

Although the purple one looks great!
Ryzen built in graphics are quite good. If you don't want a gaming laptop (though this will play WoW) this is fine.

Less than you may think but I always absolutely gut windows when I get a new pc anyway. I use a windows tweaker to get rid of stuff and clean out the start menu with powershell.

Any suggestions on a 15.6" laptop with built-in optical drive?
Really hard to find one of these nowadays.
Have a library of 100s of DVDs that I still like the convenience of just sliding in and watching on laptop.
