Rated 5 out of 5

My life just got easier and my stress just went way down

I stepped and bought this laptop to replace my 6 year old Lenovo. I was tired of lock ups and taking forever when I was doing edits of my images. This laptop is everything I could have asked for. Loading images from my sd card is FAST....building my previews and smart previews goes about 10 times faster...seriously! My only nitpick is its taking me a bit to find what I need to do with the new Windows 11 interface.
