    Any reviews from the ozb community? Would these be good for basic browsing and using office?

    • mskeggs on 13/06/2022 - 10:22

      Fine. The only concern is the screen resolution is a bit low.
      If that isn’t a factor you look for when buying a laptop, you might not notice it with these quite small, portable laptops.

      • WatchNerd on 13/06/2022 - 10:30

        Did you buy one from the last deal?

        • search on 13/06/2022 - 10:41
          +3

          I did. It’s pretty snappy laptop. I love it. I frequently touch the screen assuming it is touch enabled though it’s not.

            @search: So what are your thoughts on the screen & how's the battery life?

            Hopefully they won't send out more laptops in the same condition that this member received.

              @WatchNerd: Screen is fine from unless you look at it from 10cm, then you see the pixels. Battery lasts at least 6 hours. And mine came with a LTE modem. My only gripe is no backlit keyboard.

              • CrispyChrispy on 13/06/2022 - 13:15

                @Sharp: 6 hour battery life? Damn, not bad for a sub-$400 laptop.

              • search on 13/06/2022 - 17:06

                @Sharp: Second that on battery life. Also, I could charge via USB C port for which I have my work charger and dock with dual monitors.

    • Maxxiz on 13/06/2022 - 15:00

      Got one last deal, runs well and pretty good nick.
      The windows went straight to desktop which was a touch concerning, but a restore of windows did the trick and no issues with licence.

    • entropysbane on 13/06/2022 - 18:04

      We have latitudes or HP elites at work. This gen latitude we had a few issues, particularly wifi but you never know if that is the fault of the dell or the profile that the. IT dept impose on them.
      The crew prefer ordering the HPs because of this history, which shows how bad it was at the time.

      If these have been tested probably OK

  • netbies on 13/06/2022 - 10:24

    If it was compatible with the old E dock, I would have got one.

    • Richardc on 13/06/2022 - 17:26

  • bargaino on 13/06/2022 - 10:28

    This would be great value for anyone who works at a desk, but needs to be portable sometimes. Just add external monitor for FHD or whatever.
    Specs say "DisplayPort over USB Type-C (optional" - is that included? Otherwise FHD max over hdmi 1.4.

    • senorclean on 13/06/2022 - 10:35

      The one I bought from the previous deal has thunderbolt and plays nicely with my WD19TB dock.

      Overall, I'm really happy with it. The screen is ordinary, and it is a bit chonky but excellent value and nice to type on.

      I bought it for use in rough-ish environments - used it last Friday to do a bunch of datalogging in a seafood factory and it was great.

      • ksama0079 on 13/06/2022 - 10:44

        Your dock would have costed more than the laptop.

        • senorclean on 13/06/2022 - 11:20

          My main laptop is an XPS13 2-in-1 so I already had the dock!

          Handy to be able to use one dock for either, or my wife's.

        • Richardc on 13/06/2022 - 15:38

      They're TN - It looks like it might be possible to retrofit a 1080p IPS panel from Aliexpress but I haven't pulled the old panel out of mine yet to confirm.

      You could install Win10 Pro when you receive it and it should activate fine.

  • wombat81 on 13/06/2022 - 10:53

    Any comments on battery life? Wondering it it would get through a full school day without issue. Looks potentially like a good school laptop since it seems to be a bit of a tank and compact. But no mention of battery specs.

    Thanks.

  • eraser215 on 13/06/2022 - 11:38

    At this price anybody considering buying an Intel NUC could consider one of these instead IMHO. Just leave the lid shut and run it like you would a NUC.

    • dav3 on 13/06/2022 - 12:40

      A NUC is still more compact, it's also not going to explode if it lives its life powered 24/7

    • coxymla on 13/06/2022 - 16:18

      I got sick of laptops as HTPCs. Too much pain with opening the lid to power on, needing to fiddle to make sure the external monitor is the primary, for this one in particular you also can't mirror because the internal screen is 768p.

      • vinnycol on 13/06/2022 - 17:04

        Some laptops have a setting in the BIOS to turn on as soon as external power is applied… My Dell has…

        • coxymla on 13/06/2022 - 17:09

          Sure, but still a bit annoying to have to pull and replug the barrel jack to turn it back on.

    Thinking about Lan games. Just wondering if Windows XP could be installed on this laptop? Thanks

    • coxymla on 13/06/2022 - 16:14

      Doubtful, but what do you want to run on XP that doesn't run on 10?

      • Dune on 13/06/2022 - 17:40

        Thank you for reply. Reading the cpu model number I mistook it for a much older cpu. This cpu was released in 2017. XP is not gonna run. My main problem is that although win 10 can run old games fine, Lan ports are not being recognized properly. So Lan games from XP era with windows 10 doesn’t work. I will wait for a much older model to show up I guess.

    • coxymla on 14/06/2022 - 00:12

      An 8th gen CPU and NVMe SSD is going to be fine to run Windows acceptably. The hardware will have a Windows license tied to it already.

    • jwh on 14/06/2022 - 10:54

      Depends on what you want to do with it, but I don't see the appeal when this will have no issues with Windows. Flex doesn't allow you to install Android apps, if anyone was hoping for that.
