Apart from the small 32GB ssd this looks quite tasty for those on a budget: https://www.aldi.co.uk/en/specialbuys/thur-27-aug/product-detail/ps/p/medion-akoya-s2218-notebook-116/

Cheers for that, might have a use for that.

It looks like it's based on a standard SoC that is coming out of China on a whole raft of devices atm, but with a Medion tag it's probably has a lot more quality control applied to it!

To be honest I find most netbooks on this spec/size are usually poor quality regardless of brand. Having seen/used/dealt with all sorts of Netbooks like these they just don't seen worth the money.

 

We've had similar netbooks and they don't last, even when looked after and certainly only good for Internet Access and that is questionable.

 

Not a big fan as you can guess, might as well get a cheap tablet. At least that wont go slow and will be relatively usable a year or two later. (Only my opinion though)
