Evaluation

A notebook computer designed for initial computer learners, it focuses on usability, user-friendliness, superb quality, bigger keyboard and touch pad, long-life battery and non-fan heat radiation feature to please users with enjoyable operation experience. Simple and mellow in outlook, the keyboard has no obvious grooves to seamlessly integrate with computer surface. Velvet coating reduces cutting lines as many as possible to keep purity in design. Plus silky and round corners, even holding feels like touching.
