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. "

I bought one off the previous deal and couldn't be happier for what it is.
Does exactly what I need it to do, great price... track pad is a bit weird, no "enter" key by num pad but have gotten used to those oddities.

In theory, this is an insanely amazing deal for the specs, BUT I don't trust this sketchy Chinese company "ACEMAGIC". I feel like they make a profit from by getting your data or something.

I agree. It's hard to pull the trigger on this, assuming that they'll have something spy-like written into the bios or something.

A review on this was not good. One of the USB ports does not even do USB it is just to charge a phone or something. The CPU is so slow that when updating you just have to wait. The SSD is not NVME and thus slow as well. This is caused by the lack of lanes in this CPU.

The review did say if this was a Chromebook it should work well. Maybe they will make one.

I have a mini PC from the company using the N95, 8GB / 256GB, 3 MDMI, 3 USB 3.2 and 2 network ports. Works great and zero bloatware just plane windows 11 pro.
a few days ago I bought another Mini PC from Blackmagic with N97 16/512GB etc.. Both work great and in all honesty fast enough for normal users.
Only problem is sound. My old speakers don't work. They are old so most likely I just get a USB one.
They are not for gaming and heavy use but common look at the price,

No enter key on a laptop? What a huge oversight that was

The review mentioned that the mini PC's with the same processor work well. They were surprised that the notebook did not work as well. This is the first and so far the only notebook the company has made. I almost never want to try the first product made as companies learn from their mistakes.

It lasts a max of 5 hours on battery. Though it is energy efficient.

They considered Windows 11 Pro as a negative. Not sure why. Seemed strange.

Sorry, maybe was not clear... was talking about enter key on bottom right of num pad, not the usual large enter key on right side of keyboard to the left of the num pad.

It's a great laptop for the price despite all the naysayers ... listen to the people who own one.
The whole "chinese spyware" is laughable coming from the same people who are typing on their i-phones with their alexas, indoor/outdoor cameras, etc.

Every other laptop I have purchased has been loaded with bloatware, trialware, etc... not this one.
It's not a rocketship but works great (15 seconds or less cold boot to full desktop).

If that were even remotely plausible, you would be able to find it simply by monitoring the traffic leaving the device.

There's no magic VPN that can obfuscate traffic from your router.

It also wouldn't be cost effective to build some sort of tap that leverages international mobile data and put a modem in this.

Moreover, UEFI is pretty hardened against exploits. As long as this isn't booting in legacy BIOS mode, the OS should be safe.

You'd be surprised about how many household "trustworthy" name brands spy on you already. They almost all do it to different extents .
