Detailed Test Results

Performance: Overall this desktop's performance was excellent. Tasks like email, word processing and web browsing will be speedy and you can even accomplish tougher tasks like video editing and mid-range gaming at top speed. You'll be able to play demanding video games on this system, with smooth graphics and quick response. The speakers should suffice for typical movie, music, and gaming needs.

Ergonomics: Features of the keyboard, mouse, labeling, and LED indicators were not well-designed, so it's not especially comfortable or convenient to use. The keyboard and mouse are both wireless, adding to convenience when placing them. The mouse is not as comfortable to use as others. You can't replace the hard drive or add a new one. The power button is hard to access.

Display: The display quality was excellent overall. Colors were accurately reproduced, realistic, and natural looking. The desktop's display was prone to glare, making it somewhat difficult to see 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. Average touchscreen will make swiping, tapping and pinching the screen easy to use.

Useful features and attributes on this model include: The spacious 2TB hard drive offers plenty of room for storing your music, photos, and movies. The spacious 2TB hard drive offers plenty of room for storing your music, photos, and movies. Has fast 802.11ac WiFi. The display is a multi-touch touchscreen. You can connect common external devices such as hard drives and Blu-ray burners to the USB 3.0 port for maximum performance. Gigabit Ethernet provides fast transfer of data over a local network. This desktop is compatible with DVI and HDMI for connecting to an HDTV.

Downsides: There's no VGA video connector, or a separate adapter is required. There's no optical drive like a CD or DVD reader, so you'll have to buy an external drive if you need one.
