I bought this computer when it was first released in 2021. So I've had it just about 3 years now. It's works just as great as the day it arrived. It's an excellent computer, built to last, and works perfect for everything and anything I've ever needed it for over the years from online school to running a business and everything in between.
I really enjoy the touch screen feature. It's not something I use very often, but it's pretty handy. The transition from laptop to tablet is very smooth especially if you are working on a program that can use both. (I mostly use it for cricut and Netflix). I've never had any problems or noticed any lag in the screen when swapping over.
I play a few online game and it keeps up no problem. I have never had a lagging or loading issue. Also nice that I can download the apps I have on my phone onto the computer. When I'm on the road working everything stays connected and it's no hassle to pull up work files and programs when I get back to the computer.
Its a pretty touch little machine and can handle just about anything you throw at it. I'm a general contractor and sometimes my computer has to go onto jobs sights with me. Often not a place you would want to bring a computer for risk of damaging it. But this computer can take a beating. It has fallen several times while it was open and had several things land on it while it was closed. This computer is a beast! It was definitely built tough and built to last!
The battery is amazing! It says 10 hours, however that's not true. I'm on my computer every day usually all day with multiple programs open and running. It stays charged the entire day and often has battery the next morning when I forget to plug it in over night. I'd say you can easily get close 14-18 hours of battery life on a single charger. That's pretty impressive especially since mine is a few years old now.
The sound quality and volume is plenty for me. I don't think I've ever had it on max volume. It's nice that is has the volume buttons in 2 locations: on the keyboard and on the side of the device. It's has an AUX/headphone port, but in this day and age I've never needed to use it. I mostly connect external speakers via the Bluetooth capability. Very easy to do!
The only downside is the lack of ports. 1 USB drive isnt always enough. I use a wireless mouse when I'm on the computer so that takes care of the 1 USB drive. No biggie normally the mouse is the only thing I have connect to it but in the off chance I need to plug something else in, I ordered a cheap USB splitter and that works just fine.
Overall this computer is a really great buy! I do not think you would be disappointed in your choice if you decided to go this route. I know I definitely have not been. This computer should be able to meet all of your needs for many many years!
