I bought this laptop in July last year and wanted to wait a bit before posting a review.Firstly, when I received the laptop, I couldn't believe it was refurbished; it looked brand new!It has worked flawlessly ever since and battery life is ample.I recently tried to use the HDMI port and found it wasn't working and contacted Amazon. I got an immediate call back from Amazon who put me in touch with Loop8. I got a reply within the hour and my issue was a simple Graphics driver update that windows had somehow managed to delete!With a new driver installed, the HDMI port is working fine.I had already recommended this company to a friend who was also looking for a laptop and was very impressed with mine. I would have no hesitation in recommending this company and it's support to anyone looking to refurbished laptop.

I received a excellent piece of laptop, no scratches, fantastic display, original charger.However, it wont turn on without the charger. On checking further found that the internal battery is not detected and the external battery wont charge at all. Contacted the seller and they immediately accepted the return with a full refund. Seller was co-operative all throughout the refund and return process and I must say they have excellent customer service.I would advise the sellers(s) to do a quality and health check of the laptops before they are despatched from their hub to avoid such inconveniences.

Be careful what you buy! I bought this laptop as “used” in November 2024. It has been nothing but trouble since day 1, and has finally collapsed into an unusable heap.I would have expected to receive with a clean version of Windows (10). When I first started it, it went into disk repair, and did this frequently afterwards. It also initiated 2 command windows at startup which did nothing until I closed them down.There were a number of bugs in Windows which I was unable to resolve, the worst of which prevented me from connecting to the Norton Security site (though I did successfully install Norton via BT Virus Protect, and also unable to do any Windows update because it said “not connected”, even though Edge and Chrome were working fine.In the end I had to reinstall Windows just to get all the updates. This did nothing to fix the main bugs and disk errors and repair persisted.Finally on restarting the laptop went into automatic repair but was unable to reinstall windows either from the Cloud or local.Also note if you are buying a used laptop that is compatible with Windows 11. This one wasn’t, even though Windows 10 is out of support within a year of the purchase. Not happy!

Screen has a small mark which you don't notice during regular use as advertised. What amazed me was finding the external battery had 99% capacity left which I take it means they've given me a new battery and as I understand, those aren't cheap to buy so definitely a huge pro for this company. Internal battery has 81% capacity left as well.What really got me was finding out the laptop has a NVMe drive instead of the standard sata and that is a really nice touch. Another great find after opening the laptop was the 8gb of ram is just coming from one stick which gives a very simple upgrade path with the addition of a second stick should you need it which should also improve system responsiveness should I need it in the future.I could tell these guys are very experienced with the way they've cleaned up the fans and the rest of the insides of the laptop as well. That definitely wins extra points from me since it shows they've looked inside and made sure there's nothing that could effect performance like excess dust and debris which effects temperatures or increases static risk to the unit.Forgot to mention packaging this arrived in, it was a decent sized cardboard box and the laptop was inside an inflated soft shell which is easily slides out of on delivery. I wish more companies would use those for shipping new laptops, let alone a refurb.The only thing which doesn't win points is the pack of Haribo but it is a very nice touch which did make me smileOverall, very impressed with the laptop and the company I purchased from. Will definitely check them out again in the future if I'm in the market for any upgrades

I was in two minds about this reconditioned laptop but wow ws I wrong, great bit of kit exactly what I was after, fast ,great features, battery lasts longer than I thought it would be,be eco friendly and very cost effective get one

Amazing laptop! i bought this mainly for light gaming (tf2 etc) and social media, and just daily driver stuff, and it has held up really well! its moderately fast on opera gx so itl be fine if you are just looking for a "netbook" the sound is crisp, and clean, its easy to use only issue i have had is the Ram (memory) its perfectly fine for google and whatnot, but im personaly going to upgrade to 16 gb.It did arrive a few days late, but thats mainly due to DPD being slowEDIT: Bios locked. Did not say in description. lowered review to 3 stars.
