Not too surprising, these cheap acemagic machines are filled with shady stuff
"After some investigating, I found that the Chrome default settings had been altered so that something called "naviwithus" was the actual search engine, and opening a new tab actually brought up something called "UpSearches" rather than Google. I did a quick Bing search and saw that UpSearches is flagged as a virus software. My repulsion at these settings turned to disgust when I found that attempting to change these defaults didn't do anything; the original defaults would just come back. I even uninstalled Google Chrome and reinstalled it, but the defaults remained. "
Nothing in the description about the display tech so presumably be worst possible TN panel with perhaps 200nits of brightness (sponsored by optometrist)
That $230 price point is very tempting for my kids for school work. But I fear the durability of it..... Anyone have a Acemagic laptop??
They want touch screen. haha
You could find a used Dell Latitude in that price range and it'll have better durability for school. Had a Latitude D630 while in school and it still functions to this day.

Nothing in the text that I saw, but two photos show IPS. I had to order one just to check it out at that price, so I'll see soon enough.
Their website seems like a temu or alibaba or something. Sketchy
Also see discount if you buy 2, but does not stack with code so you have to place 2 separate orders if you want more than one.
Also SSD does not appear to be nvme.
Possibly not NVME, but I doubt it. These look like the same system architectures as their mini PCs, only different form factor and KB+ screen. So I think they would also use the same drives. May cost a few cents more, but easier to QC, build, and support.
Edit: If you scroll down to the really bold area is states "512GB NVME SSD"

Good eyes, ordered for the heck of it. Could return if terrible.
How's the Alder Lake N95? Isn't that a Celeron replacement?
Yeah, but it's about 25% faster than the Celeron N5095. The biggest limitation is that it only has one memory channel. It's pretty much using the E-cores of modern Intel CPUs. Good enough for an office PC.

but i'm pleasantly surprised that the cheapest right now is to buy directly from them! does that mean they are upcharging all other places??

It's a bit better than the best Celeron, but it's worse than an i5 from seven years ago.
At least the RAM isn't soldered!
