Customer Reviews

highly reliable and solid
now had this laptop for a month, and is reliable and solid. All functions work well, and the keyboard is very nice. Screen size is large for a laptop, which of course adds to the overall size. I installed lastest wireless drivers and have had no problems with the wireless function. All in all a good machine if you want large storage space and good performance. Would be 5 star if battery life was slightly better.

Great laptop with terrible screen
I bought this laptop because I think it has great looks and a good build quality. Both are true! However its major weakness is the screen. The screen is really washed out and just can't display vibrant colours at all. I have had it connected to my desktop screen and the difference is quite noticable. I may consider selling this laptop as a vibrant screen is quite important to me. I have tried colour balancing the screen and also downloaded a few colour synch programs, but to no avail! Ohterwise a great laptop. Very rugged, and despite what some reviews say the audio / sound is fine considering it's a laptop.

Superb Machine!
I've just received my laptop yesterday, can't stop playing around with it or for that matter looking at it! Really great quality, have had no problems with wireless connection. It is super fast, graphics are more than adequit, but I have not tried any games yet, but I really doubt that it will have any problems. I'm sure there are plenty of other laptops out there that are far stronger and quicker, but for the price this is superb. The 1.3mp camera is also fantastic, really easy to use and no cumbersome internet cameras you normally have of past! If you are a part-time gamer and use your laptop for internet, documents and video I think this is perfect.
