If this thing works, it's worth it.

I got the Black Friday version of Corei7, a lightning deal that cost me about $804 with some tax on it. I couldn't refuse the huge discount I got for it and now I regret it a bit. Got a laptop and wow this thing boots up completely in literally 10-15 seconds. The touch screen works great. The picture is sharp and clear. Printing works great for me. Also, don't expect to be able to run high-end graphics games on this thing. If you're getting a gaming PC, especially to run modern games like…

Pros
  • Speakerphone

  • Very expensive

Gets hot for traditional laptops

Pros
  • GOLS certified

Light and smooth and much better than fast 3

USB-C works really well with my dock, so it's a good desktop too (and yes, USB-C will charge a laptop if your dock supports it). The fingerprint reader was a pleasant surprise, I have a Swift 3 that had…

Pros
  • Wide range
Cons
  • So-so
