would you repurchase this model or another if you could

I've had this laptop for 2 years and I love it so much, best I've had. It has really held up over time, I think due to to solid state drive. Though it's been a couple of years, I am going through the effort to replace my cracked screen (I dropped it) rather than just buying a new laptop because this one is a real keeper.

Yes, it is fast, light, and can be used as a tablet or laptop. My only complaint is that the keyboard is not as good as I had hoped... I get duplicate characters way too often, and its not my typing skills at fault.I had ordered a docking station that was specifically for this model, but when it came the connector did not fit... had to return it and ordered a universal dock instead.Pros: this computer starts up very quickly. Screen is nice and big. I like it and I'm glad I purchased it.

I purchased this computer for my husband about 4 months ago. He is very happy with it, especially the size/weight and the battery life. Initially, he was frustrated that his favorite program "Quicken" was not compatible with the high resolution of the device, but with the help of online user forums, he was able to get it to work adequately, though not perfectly. Hopefully, the software manufacturers will update their programs soon to keep up with ever-changing screen ratios. Another thing to be aware of is the proprietary power source plug. Impossible to find adapters, but with the excellent battery life, hopefully we will not need one. It is still pretty new, but if he had to buy another computer today, he would definitely repurchase this model. Good luck with your decision.

When I purchased my unit the price for a new unit was almost $50 more than the refurbished. With Amazon when a price gets low go ahead and purchase. As far as the remanufactured unit, I can't see the justification for the extra money in cost.

I'm not sure but personally I would just buy a new one because it's not too expensive.

Without a doubt, unequivocally, YES!I had photographer friends who thought I was insane for buying the new version (they had only seen the old), and after they saw mine and what it was putting out, I know a few of them who are seriously considering buying one.

Yes, I bought a sharpening kit but if I needed a new one I would try and rebuy this model

I take a different point of view than most of the other responders. I would NEVER buy a refurb as my primary computer, but if you're looking at a system for gaming or music, then a refurb is fine. I do agree, though, to stick with a manufacturer-refurbed unit.

If it is in good condition you should be able to return it for the full purchase price. Then you can buy different one.

Yeah I would if you want to save money. You can get them on ebay for less than 200 used.

When I asked the same question, I was told it was better to just buy a whole new one because the model had improved since it first came out. However, you can order replacement parts from the manufacturer.

Did you decide and buy one yet? I am in the same boat and looking for your recommendation.

I don't know anything about that model, but if you want to buy a new one I highly recommend this model.

I bought the refurbished one .... And i can safely say it was as good as new!! If u buy the new one then of course itll come with brand new stuff !!

If I were you I will wait for a reasonable price, since they are bringing the prices up so you go for the new model, I am actually waiting to see the reviews of the new model to see which one to choose.

They refund the price or value of the item purchased. You then can purchase which ever newer model you decide on .Dave

If you purchase the refurbished one listed on Amazon from PriceBreakers, I will include it on the desktop. Just send me a note when you buy it reminding me of this offer.

Mine is a piece of junk. If I had one like my original, I'd say yes. I'd say no for the present model.
