Detailed Test Results

Performance: Overall this desktop's performance was good, below that of many other models but still powerful enough for tasks such as email, word processing, web browsing, and streaming movies. Compared to other tested desktops, its speed was adequate for common tasks such as web browsing, video conferencing, and application startup. Performance was okay but on the slow side when composing documents, working on data spreadsheets, and running other productivity tasks.

Ease of Use: The desktop is bundled with a keyboard and mouse. It had well-designed features that made it comfortable or convenient to use. The keyboard and mouse are both wireless, adding to convenience when placing them. Keyboard letters were high contrast and easy to read, and its keys were comfortably sized. Keyboard features such as media playback and volume control keys add convenience. The wireless mouse has a scroll wheel. You can't easily replace the storage drive.

Display: The display quality was very good overall. Colors were accurately reproduced, realistic, and natural looking. The desktop's display was anti-reflective, so there was little or no glare when viewing in a brightly lit room. The display has a wide viewing angle, especially important if more than one person needs to see the screen at a time, say, for a video or presentation. Its display produces a wider array of colors and has better contrast than on most other tested all-in-ones, which can help add realism to videos or slideshows.

Useful features and attributes on this model include: You can connect common external devices such as backup drives and DVD burners using USB 3.2 Gen 2 (10 Gbps). Video outputs include: a HDMI full-size port supporting HDMI 1.4, and supporting DisplayPort over USB-C, headphone jack; these are useful for connecting to a TV or separate monitor.

Downsides: There's no optical drive like a CD or DVD reader, so you'll have to buy an external drive if you need one. The chassis has no easy upgradability: neither storage nor memory can be replaced.
