Great for coding with IDEs that eat RAM like crazy. With Ubuntu it's just perfect. So far, Python, php, flutter with their respective jet brain IDEs just flows, a pleasure to work with.
It's a pity the battery isn't more powerful, but the fluidity there is crazy I love it.
I'm not geeked out on it, sorry, I couldn't say anything about it :P
This PC would be worth a score of 10 out of 10, however, there are two small anomalies to note. The bios screen is not transmitted to the HDMI output of the PC. The power button on the keyboard cannot be used without opening the PC in half.
This is a minor issue considering the many other qualities of the PC such as its power, its 17.5 inch Full HD screen, etc...
The price is still affordable for its capabilities and I use it for long periods of time during the day and it doesn't get too hot. The fans during intensive use or in case of big heat are not very noisy. This last point is particularly appreciable.
I am a developer and I program on it in java and the number of bi-threaded cores (8) are very good for multi-threaded programs.
I don't regret my purchase.
