Revainrating 5 out of 5

Misleading name of the operating system

This laptop runs Windows 10S Home, which means you can only use Edge as a web browser. It will also limit the types of apps you can download under the guise of security (read: exactly what Microsoft wants). This will also force you to create a Microsoft account to log into your computer. If you have specific apps you need (e.g. a homeschooling school), you'll have a hard time getting this laptop to work for you. Revain really needs to make sure people understand the difference between Windows 10 Home and Windows 10S Home and that their information clearly shows the correct operating system. I would never have made this purchase if I knew what I needed to know. If you don't want Microsoft controlling how you use your laptop, you don't need this device.

Pros
  • Great vibes
Cons
  • Makes me nervous
