Following the discussion here, iI would like to ask something.
I discovered some small laptops (10 inch and 7 inch), with an Intel N100
processor, up to 16 GB RAM and ump to 1 TB disk. But shipped with windows.
2 questions:
1. Does one have any experience, if the N100 cpu is usable for fluently work?
These processors are also built in small mini computers.
Short answer: Not usable.
Long answer:
As a rule of thumb, never trust AliExpress product descriptions.
You have to always look up _specifications_ on Intel official website or
websites of other vendors.Seller claims this device has N100 CPU [1],
but in Characteristics section it is actually J4115 [2].
So which is it?
Display resolution 1280*800 means it couldn't be used comfortably by
today's UI standards and is not significantly better than screen of your
smartphone.
Notice how none of the reviewers made a photo or screenshot of actual
hardware specifications detected by OS. More reasons to not trust device
descriptions or reviews.
There is not a single actual photo of the product, in the description
section, only 3D modeled edited pictures.
When order is disputed, AliExpress arbitration service will consider
Characteristics as primary source for specifications, so it will be
customer's fault in the end and refund could be denied.
In conclusion: It is a *very* overpriced toy, not a device you could
accomplish any complex work.
If I was in the market for a new "work horse" laptop, I'd search for one
with at least 14" screen size, with display height resolution of 1080p
or more.
