    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. There's no dedicated number pad on the keyboard. 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 brighter than most and it's anti-reflective, a plus for 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.

    Useful features and attributes on this model include: The spacious 1TB hard drive offers plenty of room for storing your music, photos, and movies. The spacious 1TB hard drive offers plenty of room for storing your music, photos, and movies. Has fast 802.11ac WiFi. 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. Digital audio out sends a digital audio signal to speakers or your home theater.

    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. This desktop comes with 3 months of tech support.
