So this 130$ laptop has more ports than my 4200$ macbook pro touchbar?
Swiss001 what are you doing here,lol
I'm sorry for your loss
Swiss001 what macbook do you have?
Buttttt... does it have as many inputs as my a310?
well don't buy apple products
“It comes with Office for one year, which is like $100 right?” So the laptop is $30?
Most underrated comment ever

@@bruh_660 hey tumblrtard
And you get a full copy of Windows, which is another 100$... so Dell gives you 70 bucks for taking this piece of trash off their hands I guess 👐

Now it's $189 and with an A6...
buy used
its now $279
Oof
damn.
Thank you for being a tech channel that doesn't destroy products constantly.
At this price, $130 is pretty good.
The last laptop I owned was a Dell Inspiron 3000 and that one costed over $1000 way back.
This laptop at $130 seems like a more capable machine for much less money.
I'd rather just have a Chromebook at this price, as it will run better on less resources, it's a lot more secure than Windows 10, a lot of the newer ones can run Android apps(not 100% perfect mind you, & do a model list search before buying), and in the newest developer channels they are rolling out support for more feature rich Linux programs, which means STEAM for Linux if you are willing to compile it.
I had a $99 Hisense Chromebook I got off Groupon about 2 years ago, and even with only 2GB of RAM, and a 720p screen after the update I was running Android apps, and games on it like GTA: Vice City with ease, and even full USB Xbox 360 controller support, and near 60fps stable frame rates in that 720p resolution in full screen, however the flash storage it used as the boot drive eventually went bad, and it was just not worth trying to fix at that price.
Where is this sold for $130
Well I guess at this price, any laptop is a good laptop
@thomas samson No they don't, I much prefer chromebooks, especially at this price point. A chromebook will always run faster than an equivelent windows laptop at the same price range. Windows is a bloated, crappy, virus infested os.
Honnestly just buying an older premium laptop like a MacBook or a Thinkpad is way better
"Hey Austin, this is guys..."
XD 😆😆😆😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 lololol
😂😂😂
XD
@Soviet Doggo it was a couple years back when I commented, lol
It actually once happened...
Yes, it’s totally worth it if you’re broke and need a decent laptop.
Done, lol
Chromebooks can be even cheaper, more secure, can handle the basics, run Android apps(google model listings for supported Chromebooks), are getting better Linux program support, boom done!
Used i5 laptop with SSD is even better value and will let you do more with it.
"Decent" sure....
Be quiet I have this laptop
Jk it sucks and I have punched it so many times in angry
Just buy used. You’ll be able to find something a lot better for cheap
Wow this laptop is actually pretty amazing for the price. Only problem is the storage but other than that, pretty surprised with the overall package. That webcam quality destroys laptops that cost 2-3 times more.
Lmao I have the exact same laptop with all the same specs and that webcam is hot garbage
I’m starting high school next year and it’s an art school so I need a laptop. This is the exact bare minimum i need! It’s great!
*BUT CAN IT RUN ROBLOX*
Can it run minesweeper
That is windows10?
Sadly no it cannot and this comment isnt ironic my brothers laptop has an amd a6 and it cant even run roblox bloxburg. Well it can but at 5 fps. My 300 buck lenovo I3 gets 60fps auto settings and not to mention my laptop is from 2008 while my bros is from 2016
My pc dosent even support ROBLOX!its 3.25 GHz and had 4 gb ram but has core 2quad and no graphics card
Danny Corn well I have a Xbox one x so I don’t need to😅....my pc does Basic computing work that’s what I need!...and my gaming needs are fulfilled by Xbox
Looks better than my school’s chrome books.
Rydoge 21 Because your school chrome books are probably cheaper

@@LamarINH Your pfp is a disgrace
Because kids dont know how to take care of computers 🙂
I'm glad that you start the video saying "hey guys, this is Austin" cause otherwise I wouldn't realized it.
I have Linus's opinion of GPUs for laptops don't waste your money on a crappy $100-200 model, spend just a little more for a better value laptop and if you don't have more money then go find a used laptop, they won't have the nice 6-10 hours of battery life a new one might offer but the performance and general usability of a $200 used laptop will be far better than a new one at that sort of price, I mean if you really want to waste your money like that you may as well blow it all on a high-end phone, I think you'd be better off with at least one nice device rather than having several budget devices.
Also consider that if you spend under $200 on a laptop now you will at some point hate it, it could take a few days, few weeks or even a year later, but you're almost guaranteed to absolutely hate it at some point and want to toss it for another, but if you spend $400-500 on a laptop you'll probably have a good time and end up keeping it for good 5-10 years.
I’m so glad you brought up the issue with widows updates. I had so many ppl come back to the store with this problem when I worked at a tech shop
You know you're broke when you pirate Microsoft Office.
ayyyy PowahSlap
Nobody wants to pay Microsoft's exorbitant prices for office. $400 for a non-revocable licence to normal office? No thanks.
I run a pirated Office 2010 and everything is just fine, don't need newer versions

Can you make a video on how to take care of a gaming laptop. How to maintain it's longevity. How to clean. What to clean. When to clean. How to charge. When to charge. Etc etc. Please!!!!!
Luqman Oqbah I agree wth this
To maintain battery longevity, never let the battery go below 10% and do not leave it plugged into the charger all the time. Only charge it when necessary.
I know for smartphones the range is between 40-80 percent so I would assume it's the same for laptops
Always keep it plugged in because without it being plugged in it probably last like an hour
@@ryantoomey611 you need to keep it plug, battery drains hellla fast. Also if u dont plug it in when gaming your FPS drops faster than your grade
iPad 2018 budget is the best what bought recently for college cause I didn’t have any other

26 likes is too much for this.
Edit: 106 likes is also too much for this.
only if i got a dollar every time he mentioned the AMD cpu
You'll only get $4
if i got a dollar everytime he say 'pretty well', i will be richer than you
if every time he said a word you gave me 10 dollars ill be more richer than u
At this price range, I think I'd rather get a Chromebook but this isn't bad for a Windows machine
SDG Danny chrome OS is really bad tho
Tiler Durpen - Not bad, just not as universally compatible because it's Linux.
Tiler Durpen It's not the same as it was 2-3 years ago. Most mainstream Chromebooks have android, and they are introducing Linux support.
Plus their web apps work very well tbh. Most security experts buy Chromebooks because of how secure they are.
KillMeWithPotato Well said, I've got an ASUS Chromebit I bought new for $70, and it's been in use as a internet kiosk for my clients at my work on an ACER 19in VGA LCD 1440x900 monitor(HDMI to VGA adapter with 3.5mm audio out), and even with only 2GB of RAM it's nice, and snappy, and has been able to handle anything they have thrown at it far as basic web browsing, and 1080p(720p for 60hz videos) RUclips, and it even has 5Ghz WiFi with constant updates. I know not a Chromebook/laptop, but just goes to show how little hardware ChromeOS actually needs to run smoothly for basic daily task most people will throw at it. Having said that I bought a used $90 Lenovo Thankpad X131e Chromebook, and bumped the RAM to 8GB DDR3L added a 500GB HDD for extra storage, and replaced the battery because, but honestly even that's overkill for Chrome OS.
Sir Salmon well said non sense
Hey Austin! Upload a video that is different aside from tech. Like your gym workout. Those biceps are real. Lol nice vid tho. 😊
I'd just think of this as a tablet with a keyboard running windows and no touch screen.
Kyle Li so... a laptop?
a laptop isn't exactly that though
NoteBook
Pretty much
So basically a laptop, with tablet-grade specs...
WOW the webcam and mic on that laptop is better than every $2000-$3000 laptop I've seen.
*"ITS SMALL BUT IT STILL WORKS"*
Sucks that it can't handle a mandatory update. I use a HP Stream for trips, but it's an older one. So this is a good swap
*ARE AUSTIN EVANS REVIEWS WORTH IT?*
Tech Bullz are*
Well he hit all the right points for this laptop . I don't own one but I know someone who does . And their experience is like this . If you're considering this laptop I'll advise you to go for something that has atleast 64GB eMMC. 32 just leaves 8 GB for you . 64 leaves around 37 . Also I think this thing is way too small . But performance will be pretty fine for simple computing . Just not having ethernet connection is a negative if you ask me .But atleast you get Dell's excellent customer support
*_Y E S_*
Tech Bullz sure
Yes
The question is...
Does it have 1080p
*cough
Budget iPhone
2nd hand laptops are much better with lower prices and better performance in my place
I appreciate that ya'll quantify your terms. LIke i have no clue what any of those cpu's mean..
but you gave an understandable quanitfying statement to it.
*No*
web cam is lot better than I expected :0
"Intensive task such as Windows Update" lol

Great video Austin!👍😁
I was going to buy it the other day!
The $300 Lenovo G51 from 2015 has 1 TB of storage and is pretty powerful.
Hey 130 Dollars Laptop, This is Guys ,We are reviewing a 700 Dollars Austin
Not sure if you’re ever going to see this but, i would love to see a 800 dollar budget setup. Including everything needed for using a pc from the pc itself and the peripherals along with the desk and chair. Everyone like this so he can see.
I downloaded a gtx 1080ti on it and it broke the laptop
In sweden, it costs 160 bucks (not including taxes and shipping for 74 dollars.)
Do a HP envy vs. Acer Aspire 5 comparison video!!
This laptop has so much potential in it , only if they're willing to put in a dual channel 2x2 2400 MHz ram and slightly improve the cooler by adding more heatsink and a good quality thermal paste , on that 768 res it will be able to play so many esport game at low- medium setting at 50 plus fps
Wait a second did he rob my school?
Your school has those your lucky,mine doesn't even have any...no joke...
I'm so glad this exists. It's extremely affordable laptops like these that will help the youth of developing and poor countries come up
NEW EXCITING VIDEO AGAIN !!!!!
Im actually considering getting a dedicated $100 such PC to run my network. So this series is interesting.
Where can I download $130?
Off the internet. All you need to do to physically use it is print it out. Note: I am not responsible for you if anybody tries this and gets arrested.
Bitcoin boi
By Selling Lemonade
I could see that as a burner laptop something you give the kids take on vacation to offload your photos onto or just to watch video on and not have to worry about it too much if it gets broken. It's nice to see how far technology has come.
I bought once a 65€ laptop (70$) and it works great. I just had to change the thermal pads, but it wasn't a mandatory.
It has a Core Duo, and 2GB of RAM. It's quite small, but RUclips works really good, and even Minecraft runs at 50 FPS at best. ^^
It was my daily laptop for a while, but it still reliable. It's a 2007 Fujitsu Siemens Amilo Pi.
I dig your new background haha
Is the Table worth it?
*Is SpongeBob Squarepants worth it though???*
I had an Inspiron 11 and i FACTORY RESET it and it deleted windows 10 off of it and it’s getting fixed as I type this
Yes . Which laptop is best for video editing ??? Under 500 $
A desktop.
If you can get access to a university just use their hardware and software to edit.
iMac Pro
Good luck finding something that can properly edit videos for less than $500
software also matters, some things like davinci resolve are gpu bound meaning not recommended.
i recommend shotcut for a low powered laptop like the aspire
Some of these major updates for Windows like the 1803 won't allow you to use external storage to update, so you can't update unless you reload Windows with that update. If you don't update Windows constantly harasses you to do the update, not worth it one bit.
Wait, this is my school laptop
That's better than my school's chromebooks
I like the bevels on the side compared with the stream as theyre a little bit snaller
it's 190 now :(
Ass Möde For you
I bought a Sony Vaio laptop in 2013 for 40000 INR which was approximately $650 at that time. (1 USD = 60.50 INR in 2013)
Still it works fine...
Is Austin Evans worth it?
Yes
Arturo Fajardo no
He is but ur not
Yes
😔
Strangely enough, I got a more positive impression from you when you reviewed the even cheaper RCA Cambio.
The answer to the storage space problem with these laptops, is to install linux, with a full fledged linux like opensuse it uses about 6gb, ubuntu around 8-10gb.
In such machine you probably will only browse the web and use for media and or wordprocessing and powerpoint creating, so linux could be a really good system for it.
The 32 GB eMMC is a killer. I would consider 64 GB an absolute bare minimum for a Windows 10 system, and even with 128 GB you can find yourself stretched. At this price point, you can do a lot better with something used.
CAN IT RUN MINE CRAFT??
Joshua Joji Mathews yeah, maybe MAYBE
Maybe for a few minutes at 15fps before it tanks due to throttling.
Probably at 20 FPS unless Optifine is installed
I have a AMD A6 but it's from 2013 and it runs minecraft between 30-60 fps on fancy settings and 8 render distance but on low I get 40-100 fps
Jancy Varghese they does
If people took shots every time they watched a video on this channel, every time Austin says, "is going to be," they'd die of alcohol poisoning halway through each video.
I wish decent gaming laptops/pc's had prices like this...
albert Van den Berg - They can, if you build your own with used parts. (Desktop)
get a used dell business model, and put a 60$ gpu in it, 200$ for a vastly better pc
James R - Great idea. i5-2400 + 750 Ti.
In your fucking dreams if u want recent parts..but if ur smart u can build decent ones with a 1050 for under $300 ive help friends the key is buying older gen prebuilts for 200$ than chucking an ssd and maybe GPU with some other cash.
Then after that the computer stock market would crash.
But can it run Minesweeper? I'm looking for an upgrade from my toaster.
Hey Lap I'm on top
im hard for you
After 4 years of using a similar priced netbook, I am tempted to get this as a secondary laptop plus, this laptop should do what I need. Ish
*Hey Austin This is Austin*
Why is the webcam on that thing better than most multi-thousand dollar laptops I've seen reviewed?
Can we play fortnite at medium settings
At 30fps
If yes I am getting that $H!t
I had one of these Dell Inspiron 11 laptops. It was nice to have windows on it but the storage was terrible. The whole thing was slow and sucked at running windows properly. I switched to a Chromebook and it's better than that thing. I only need a laptop for basic tasks. Most of my heavy work loads are on my desktop windows PC.
*Guys Austin this is hey*
Read it from right to left and pretend there's a question mark at the end
It ain't $130 it's $159 with the link provided. And this video JUST got posted so there's no way the price changed that quick!
Videos can take a few days to shoot and edit you know

Hey 130 dollars, its is it worth it
I swear in the near future there will be high spec laptops for less than 300. I hope there is.
Hey Guyz, This's Exhausting
I think this is made for college students because it's cheap, portable, and it has office 365 for a year which they usually use for school.
If your wondering this can play he best game ever...
Minesweeper(who actually knows how to play that)
So I just bought this in 2022 for 2 reasons.
1. Just to have an emergency backup incase my main desktop is out of commission.
2. To write my novel on with Scrivener if I am out and about anywhere.
3. To bring with me when I travel and need access to basic pc functionality.
I will have it Sunday and the only thing I plan to do is swap out the ssd for a 1tb m.2.
For those who ask why I wouldn't get something more powerful: My Desktop has a Ryzen 9 5900 and a RTX 3070ti - I have plenty of performance and don't need a powerful laptop, just something inexpensive.
Can it play Minecraft. Seriously
WildWill4 Sadly no bro
you can but you have to use optifine with little to no mods
No. It only runs Paint.
Yes, but the fps is low
4gb and that processor it can run optifine 1.8 or liteoptiforge 1.7.10 with render distance set to 3 graphics fast fog at the lowest
Hey Austin! I just have a slight question. I have a 1,000$ budget, can you recommend a laptop for a student ?
msi modern 14 it has a core i5 and a 512 GB SSD and also 8 gigs of ddr4 ram.
wanna hear a joke? Tanacon 😂
Can’t believe my school bought ibuypower pc’s with gtx 1080’s and 16gb ram. And for film class, they have custom built PCs with 2x gtx 1080ti and 32 gb. I’m surprised
BOY I JUST BOUGHT THIS, my honest opinion, YES. It’s a cheap throw around laptop to throw around. After a couple updates and a bios update, it runs ALOT better. The SSD is great to, with the upgradable ram it’s a great deal. I am also planning on upgrading the WiFi since it just runs through a m.2 slot.
I wonder if Austin talks like a local news reporter in real life and announces "hey guys, this is Austin" every time he walks in a room.
Love your videos keep up great work
I purchased a laptop used. It's the HP Pavilion DV5 2135dx and I got it for $50. The only downside was the battery couldn't hold a charge but I was able to pick up a 9 cell battery replacement for $30 off of amazon. I also upgraded it with a 120 GB SSD for another $30 and installed ubuntu mate cuz windows SUCKS. Overall for $110 I got a really nice laptop that's actually worth what I paid for it. Unlike any macbook EVER!
