The touch pad is off. It's like double clicking or something. Loose maybe like the reviewer mentioned. Also very sensitive. The screen is pretty bad in my opinion. I knew it was a risk at 250 nits. If it wasn't specifically for media consumption, I could live with it. Maybe. But since for me it's mainly for Youtube, movies etc, it's not very good. Colors aren't great and not bright enough. Will never try a 250 nit screen again. On anything. Last is the battery. I put on YouTube autoplay. Maxed out brightness and got 5 hours 10 minutes out of it. Twice about the same time. Lowered brightness a bit till it looked too dim for movies and only 40 minutes more. Not sure how people are getting 7-8 hours on a charge. Probably not playing videos the whole time.
Otherwise it's a pretty good machine. Very fast, good keyboard and speakers. I think most will like it. But watching videos/movies all the time, the screen just doesn't cut it for me. Nor does the touch pad. I hope Best Buy doesn't charge a restocking fee. I can't remember.

As far as the screen goes, it's a desktop replacement that she'll only be using indoors in a moderately lit environment so the brightness isn't an issue. If fact, she prefers keeping brightness at around 50%.
Battery won't be a problem since she's not taking it anywhere.
