One of the best deals, glad I bought this.

Thanks for the feedback on this laptop on the market and other publications on the web; with that in mind, here are some quick instructions on how to install Windows 10 on this laptop: 1. Make a USB disk bootable (on another computer): 1.1. We'll need a flash disk with 8GB of space or more. Let's set up the format. 1.2. To Microsoft we go. After downloading the file "MediaCreationTool21H1. Exe" from com/ru-ru/software-download/windows10 and clicking "Download tool now," you should launch the program and choose "USB flash drive." 1.3. The flash drive's drivers are obtained via a download from the intel website. Go to f6flpy-x64. Ru (the first result when searching for "intel rst driver"), download the file, and then unzip it onto the USB drive. All set, the USB disk is prepared. 2. In order to install Windows 10 (since the touchpad is inoperable, we use the TAB and Enter keys to check the appropriate boxes), we: 2.1. To turn on the laptop while holding Esc, we plug in the USB flash drive and turn on the power. When prompted, select F9 Boot Device Options, choose the appropriate Windows 10 edition (Pro in my case), and continue with the installation. Here, it is crucial that the laptop recognizes the flash drive; if it does not, you will need to revert to Step 1. 2.2. We chose "Custom Windows Installation" and "No Product Key Required," then formatted the disk to have 100 GB dedicated to the operating system (I actually left 200 GB alone) and the rest to files. The system has been installed on the primary disk (drive C:) 2.3. When prompted to restart by the installation, take out the USB disk to boot into Windows. 2.4. Then, proceed with the instructions while staying disconnected from the web. 3. Setup of Drivers 3.1. The touchpad and audio both stopped functioning at first. To ensure that Windows functions properly, go to "Settings," "ates and Security," and then "Windows ate." Everything was functional after a few of restarts. 4. Activating Windows 10 After giving it some thought, I made the decision to not activate Windows; this has no effect beyond the aesthetic, however the background can be altered. But the system can be eaten. I think you'll find my suggestion useful.

Pros
  • For work, I opted for a laptop computer so that I wouldn't be a hindrance while traveling. I couldn't find anything better for the price (I agreed to 38,500). I selected my laptop using the criteria outlined in the article pravilno-vybrat (Ru/noutbuk) Includes: - 8GB of RAM, - an IPS monitor with a matte screen, - 512GB of storage, and a processor (Intel Core i3 1125G4) with a performance of 9172 (Passmark). The matte display, excellent keyboard, and dedicated numeric keypad (along with NumLock) were all highlights for me.
Cons
  • One, the lack of a keyboard backlight (but not critical for me, I type blindly) A second effect is a tiny "backlash" when typing. The third is difficult to open, but eventually you'll get it open. Fourth, the silver paint may peel as stated; this appears to be the case (small risks appeared, although I use it carefully). Features FreeDOS (with BIOS), meaning no pre-installed operating system; user must perform installation; some caveats apply.
