It’s great to get started learning Linux on. You can use it out the box with it’s default OS until you feel comfortable enough to change it and with so many options to try, you will eventually.
It’s small, lightweight, has decent battery life & you can also take it apart with a screwdriver. It’s fine for Office, network management, light web stuff & the keyboard is nice to type on.
If you’re into windows games, lots of browser tabs open and non-Arm software, you’ll need to look for something else; It’s a basic laptop, hence the price. If you’re in Europe, Tuxedo from Germany has higher hardware spec Linux ready laptops, but of course you will pay for the better hardware.
I use mine weekly for work: programming, office reports, network/server management & testing. It fits the bill for that, but I also have other devices if I need to do something that requires more power.
Overall, I really satisfied with mine and if it died today, I’d buy another without a second thought.
