Any recommendations for 8 and 10 year olds for use in their free time and activities they might like to do on them? Or recommend against these or laptops in general for that age?

They use netbooks at school a bit, but it seems pretty limited, they don't seem to do much in the way of getting used to typing and using computers for everyday use, though I guess that will probably come more in high school. They also have an interest in coding, like scratch, although they can do it on their tablets and they don't.

They have tablets at home already.

Wonderfool on 13/02/2024 - 21:34

These are fine, but there are cheaper alternatives. Honestly, though, tablet is perfectly fine for them. Probably the school netbooks are fine as well.

If you have a bit more money to spend and want to provide your kids with a general purpose laptop that's suited for their size, look at the chuwi Mini book X. It is the new generation of netbooks, $450 after tax, with a 10inch screen, 920g weight, and a celeron N100, which is a 4 core cpu, good enough for their general computing usage and play very light games.

Chandler on 14/02/2024 - 13:56

Hmmm… do I go the (potentially good, potentially cheap) Aliexpress import or the local refurb…

For the same price (AU$450):

Component	CHUWI MiniBook X	DELL Inspiron 7380	Lenovo Yoga 910-13IKB
Processor	N100	i7-8565U	i5-7200U
RAM	12GB	16GB	8GB
SSD	512GB	256GB	256GB
Screen	10.5" FHD+	13.3" FHD	13.9" 4K

Was only looking at 2-in-1s at the same price point, only looking at the corporatepc store (since this is deal in question).

If you're willing to wait, I'll wait for a 10th gen i5 2 in 1 to drop. We're starting to see them drop in price
https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/828182

10th gen i5 is a pretty jump in performance per watt, which means less chance of overheating and less effort cleaning required. so I'll prefer that.

I'll only get the chuwi if size and weight really matters to you. I'll personally still trust office refurbs more.

        @vinni9284: Boot time is solely determined by ssd (read speed) and start up process/file size lol. That's it. Atleast, I don't think ddr4 ram is slow enough to bottleneck it.
        
        And in this case, it already has one. So you simply need to make it have less start up files.

        @vinni9284: Lol 25 seconds is the average for PCs, even modern ones. Motherboard and start up configuration determines basically the rest the boot time. Even on ryzen 5600 and whatever dram'ed gen 4 ssd is in my PC, it's probably also in the 20 seconds range.
        
        In my laptop, which has a OS configured by gpd, it probably has a slower boot time than this despite being bleeding edge in light weight specs.

        @vinni9284: There are some good buys about, I wont comment on the ones in this deal because I haven't really researched any of them… I couldn't be happier with the 7390 I purchased recently, it serves its intended purpose as a travel lappy very well… I'm not a tech snob chasing wanky benchmark scores so the 'U' processor is no issue, it's certainly not 'gutless' and it happily does everything I need to do while on the road and overseas, it's not like I'm trying to game with it or the likes, and the basic video editing I do is no problem at all…. As for ram, I always go for 16GB, 8 tends to struggle a bit with the mapping applications I run…
        
        Batteries on refurbs can be an issue, I've sent a couple back that were advertised as 80+% but were only like 50%, people need to check with the sellers and ensure the battery is over 80%, and then if it's not just send it back for a refund… (generally once a battery is under 80% it drops off fast, 80% is considered end of life)….
        
        Horses for courses, no-one buying a $300 lappy is expecting $1000+ performance… In my case it would be pintless to spend thousands on a lappy when a $300 one very easily does everything I need to do, and if it gets damaged or stolen $300 is no great loss … Yes there are some pitfalls in buying used-refurbs, people just need to have realistic expectations and check the battery state, specs, and test all ports when they arrive, then send them back if anything is faulty or not as advertised…

        @FLICKIT: Latitude 7390 non 2in1 will be run quieter than the Portege due to beefier heatsink. The Portege 8550u also less snappy than the Dell i5 8250/8350u. We have these in the office and I deal with them all the time.
        
        The keyboard of the Portege of these intel gen 8 era can go bad due to cracks and corrosion in the flex circuit traces so make sure you check every key when you received the unit. I have a few that turned bad and they are purchased months apart so definitely not batch issue. They are very hard to replace.
        
        They take slightly longer to boot up due to the long BIOS checks, nothing to do with the performance. However wait time is negligible, anything under 1min is ok for me as I just upgraded from a 80286 with a 5.25" floppy drive.

    My mate ordered two of these. The battery won't last two hours even.
    The aftermarket battery on one has a charge capacity of 31000mWh but the design capacity is 44004mWh.
    The second has a full charge capacity of 36411mWh
    Packed well but has some wear and tear and came with no chargers as expected but the battery life is absolutely atrocious. And they are definitely "new" low quality batteries and you can see from the scratches on the screws that they have been opened up.
    I'll tell him to contact them. Hopefully they'll be helpful in replacing them.

    Hi OP,
    
    If the deal price is no longer obtainable (due to reasons like a price increase or product going out of stock) please expire the deal.
    
    Do not alter / increase the displayed price in the title as that misrepresents the deal votes. Thanks

      Thanks mod for monitoring this. In his defence, other listed deals are still alive? Unless he jacked up the prices on those…

Any Elitebook G5 with garde A condition in stock ?

Could anyone please give a recommendation for which of these would be good for photo editing (running Adobe CC, LR and PS)? I'm currently using a 15 year old laptop so pretty sure any of these will be a major step up but would love to get some decent mileage out of an upgrade. Thank you!

  Hi, can I have the order no please so that I can check? Are you sure that there is no battery in it? We made sure that all the laptops have at least 70% battery life left which is impossible if there is no battery. No offence but requesting you to check again. Something about what you are claiming is not right.

are the 20GB laptops any good deal?
