The laptop itself is great, and seems to be the best value for money when compared to similar featured laptops on the market.

The issue is that within weeks off getting this the laptop battery completely failed. Although this was probably a manufacturers fault in the particular laptop I bought, I had a bad experience with it & therefore would be hesitant to recommend this...

Gorgeous looking product and battery life is good. I love the colour and style of the conputer. Is does what I need it to do and has lots of girly features :-)

Is it worth the money? Possibly not unless you are like me and love pink things :-) you can get other computers cheaper if you go for a bulkier one and in a different colour.

compact, light

Windows 8 Programs load slowly or not at all. That sentence took 2 minutes to type. Have excellent wifi here so am blaming Windows 8 entirely. I will now have to take this new laptop to an expert to fix it. Not happy.
