Largely PROS It's compact without being cramped - it borrows design cues from the Surface Laptop which is good. The purchase came with a free/activated Office Professional 2019 Pro license ???? and it has 3 full-sized USB A ports so you won't have to carry around a dongle. The power efficient Ryzen 3 3250U under the hood qualifies the laptop for the free Windows 11 upgrade when it's pushed by Micro$oft's servers. So, the device will be receiving updates beyond October 2025 when Windows 10 reaches EOL. It takes a full-sized SD card so you'll need an adapter if you need to access a micro-SD card) but it sticks out of the frame but its good its there. Also, there's a bundled mouse but I doubt you'll be using it CONS? Given the price, there's no backlit keyboard and the touch pad is somewhat small (for me) but other buyers may find it sufficient. Because of that Ryzen 3 series processor, its not so fast. On the "plus side", performance could have been similar or worse (obviously more expensive) if it was an i3. The 8GB RAM does help in that regard though. You could boost the speed further if you're willing swap out the (1TB) HDD for an SSD. Of course, that would push up the price and you could lose that Office 2019 license (if it's from the same seller) should you swap out the storage.
