David, Glasgow

Score 8.0/10

+ Great sized screen and keyboard.

- Problems with the trackpad (it has a mind of its own at times) and the keyboard layout, though large, is not well designed and it is very easy to accidentally hit the cursor keys mid-typing.

Score 8.0/10

+ This is my first laptop which i had to buy as my PC bit the dust. My only grip is getting used to the mousepad LOL But I'm wizzing around now. It is a bit sensitive tho, my hand might just be laying on it (not touching it) and it's click on something. But overall...a very good buy at a great price!

- Battery only last around 1hr 20 mins or so. Sound is awful, very low. It's ok for watching movies/tv but for music not so good.
