I think it is a good laptop for someone doing regular activities, such as typing up papers, surfing the net, and maybe some light gaming. I would have gotten this for a relative but I purchased them a laptop several months back. And I don't know of anyone who is in need of one.

Yep. Too bad they pair them up with awful screens.

That 4gb of ram soldered makes this a hard sell unless you never plan on upgrading. No USB-C either which isn't ideal, so you're stuck with the barrel connector for charging. Pretty basic machine with a good processor for a nice price, but this is really a "you get what you pay for" situation, and any specific use cases would likely need more ram. This is fine for a student who will take notes and watch videos on it, but they probably can't watch with a friend since TN screens typically have poor viewing angles.

Keep in mind, the 5500U is mostly a 4000 Series Chip rebanded....

https://www.anandtech.com/show/16...-notebooks

The Odd Numbers (5300,5500,5700) are still ZEN2 cores while Even (5600,5800) are zen 3 cores.


https://www.notebookcheck.net/Gee...196.0.html

So this would be a rebranded 4600u.
