Overall Review:
I have this model except for a different CPU. This is a budget laptop and is not super slim or light. I like the fact that, in addition to HDMI, it has a VGA port so you can connect to an older monitor. I really like the solid power port. The typical laptop ports with little round connectors were too easy to break for a klutz like me and a nightmare to get fixed. One memory slot is open and it is very easy to get to, just remove 2 screws in the battery compartment and slide the bottom cover forward. The speakers sound fine to me, considering this is a
laptop, but I'm not a discriminating audio guy.
