    I just got one. It only has the i5-8250U instead of the i5-8359U, so the base CPU frequency is 100 mHz lower. On the other hand, mine has 16 gigabytes of RAM and the optional additional Radeon graphics system with its own RAM (only 2 gigabytes, but...). So I'm pretty happy about it. Oh, and mine was really, really inexpensive (but not, in my world) compared to yours. About the only things I'm not thrilled about are: the storage device is way too small for my needs (dual-boot multiple OS), the 3,840x2,160 display instead of 1,920x1,080, which means this thing eats battery charge faster; my fingerprint scanner doesn't function,n either (perhaps they were optional, and HP only made the one style of case?); my battery is approximately 60% of design capacity, and buying a new one off the Internet is always a Chinese junk crapshoot; and - most significantly - it does not have linux on it (yet).

      @@techzact I am - or, at least, I will be if it's still functioning well when I get the $250 I had to borrow to buy it paid off. I am pretty sure that its battery will be pooched before then, but (of course) it does have an AC adaptor, so that's fine. When I get my favorite linux distro installed on it, it'll be great. I'm going to try to not wipe Microsoft's OS off the drive in the process... this time. Mostly so that I can learn it and Office 2019. After that, I might not log into Windows again. Although I said much the same thing approximately 15 years ago - and just proved otherwise :rolleyes: .

      some of the refurbished products are used for 14 days or 30 days and returned if they didn't fulfilled the needs of one person.So they are new,some of them are used years,but,they are checked every part and put a warranty over the product which means it works perfectly,and also during the 12 months period you could send it if something malfunctions.

    Whats a refurbished laptop compared to original

    • @techzact
      @techzact  Год назад +2

      A refurbished laptop refers to a pre-owned or used laptop that has been professionally restored to a like-new or near-new condition. This process usually involves a thorough inspection, cleaning, repair, replacement of any damaged or worn-out parts, and software updates. Once the laptop has been restored, it is tested for functionality, performance, and reliability before being repackaged and sold at a lower price than a new laptop.
      Refurbished laptops can come from various sources, such as returns, trade-ins, display models, or lease returns. They can be a cost-effective alternative to buying a new laptop, especially when purchased from a reputable seller or manufacturer. However, it's essential to check the warranty and return policy of the seller to ensure you have adequate protection in case of any issues.
