Economic machine.
It was purchased for simple navigation and basic office tasks.
It is ideal for people who travel and want a simple machine to do their work.
The memory is 8 gigabytes on the motherboard and it seems that it cannot be upgraded to 16.
Very satisfied with the purchase at the moment.
Having already a powerful desktop system, I wanted something to perform programming tasks and penetration testing from Kali Linux. The Linux experience is very poor as there is no support (it requires drivers for the network card to work) (the touchpad does not work with drivers or with the button on the keyboard).
Also, the Fn key is permanently enabled in Linux, which means that the F keys do not work on their own and you have to press FN for them to function as F keys (if anyone is interested).
The battery life is average but it is sufficient for the work I do (about 4 hours) considering that Linux is more power efficient.
Overall impressions:
The laptop, although it has a nice overall feel, feels a bit cheap (the screen is flexible and the mousepad has a large click travel path, but it is expected for the price I suppose).
Externally, it looks elegant and is minimalist.
I like the keyboard, but I am not demanding in this area.
