For the 8GB RAM(star of the show), sleek design, mid range to high quality display-- you cannot find a better or cheaper REMOTE DESKTOP. That's right. Other laptops in this price range do not offer this amount of RAM, with this lightweight of a device, and looking this pretty. You might be able to find one that satisfies 1 or 2 of those criteria, but not one that satisfies all 3. The Chuwi Lapbook Pro does, and this is exactly why I bought it. The camera is awful the couple times I've used zoom meetings on it, but you plug it in to your charger, you load up Chrome Remote Desktop and connect it to your Ryzen 9 desktop tower with 16GB RAM, and you're in business.You are not going to be gaming in 4k on this. This is not what it was meant to do. I've seen other reviews(I believe the international ones) saying it caught fire or something crazy-- and they were probably trying to overclock it. Although, the battery cooling is poor and it does get noticeably hot-- never had an issue with that and I don't force it to do things it isn't capable of doing. Imagine that!Battery is ok, but then again, I'm constantly using Remote Desktop, with the screen brightness on max-- if I cranked the brightness down and tried to write a research paper, I'm sure I could get the 6-8hrs Chuwi claims. But keep your laptops plugged in regardless. You're a bad purchaser if you let your battery die repeatedly, and you'll have a dead battery sooner or later on any laptop.Now for what I actually use it for:I use Chrome Remote Desktop. The 8GB ram is a must for this and I have 400mbps internet. I tried using my iPad Pro, and Google could care less about supporting that device. I've tried using laptops with 4-6GB RAM with diminishing returns. Basically unusable. I had a nice 16GB RAM Thinkpad, but it was old and massive, so I decided to look for something small and light but with a massive screen with minimal beveling on the edges of the screen. That's impossible right? WRONG! Chuwi did it with this. You're getting the form factor of a 2016-18 MacBook Pro here, for a fraction of a MacBooks price.I use Unreal Engine 4 on my main desktop in my office. I use the Chuwi downstairs or in bed because it's as light as a feather, and Remote Desktop runs absolutely flawlessly on it. I literally design video games set on max graphics on the Lapbook Pro-- thanks to Remote Desktop. You can do incredible things with this device, if you've already ponied up the money elsewhere for things that let you do incredible things. You wanna design a 4k video game on your couch and keep an eye out while your kids play Vacation Simulator in front of you? Lapbook Pro helps you achieve this. You can do it with other uglier, heavy, and bulky laptops-- but it's all about comfort and quality of life.So Remote Desktop, and a beast desktop are a must if you want to do things it was not made for. It can become your best friend if you use it like that.For gaming, I've tried mostly remote related things. PS Now, or lighter games on Xbox Game Pass. The Lapbook Pro performs as you'd expect. It's a low priced, mid-tier laptop. It's better than a notebook, it is not an ultrabook.I've already finished my History degree, but man I wish I had this when I was typing up the 16pg research papers a week before they were due. Would've made life easier.Would definitely recommend this to students. You're not gonna be cool without a MacBook, but it's as sleek as a MacBook, displays as well as a MacBook. Just runs windows instead. Also doesn't have any branding on the outer shell, so throw an apple sticker on there and fake it till you make it.

I bought this replace an old HP DV9730 as my go-to laptop. These two are completely different in terms of processing power and capabilities, but I paid close to $1100 for the HP, and $279 for the HeroBook. Do not think you'll be getting a world-class laptop. The Chuwi seems to solid, light and capable. I've added and additional 256G microSD card in the external slot to give this a full 512G of memory, though the specs say that the TF slot only can take up to 128G. The laptop recognizes the card and I can add/delete at will. It charges at a reasonable rate and has a good battery charge, capable of 8-10 hours of use. One thing I noticed and have seen on some of these reviews is that there is a perceived problem with the charging. It should be noted that the charge port on the left side is exactly the same size as the headphone port on the right, and you can plug the charger into the headphone port and think you should be charging it, so be advised.The body of the laptop is PLASTIC, contrary to some of the Q&A discussions above. The Chuwi has taken a major Windows 10 upgrade from Microsoft without problem (version 2004). A dxdiag inquiry in the "run" screen" shows 64-bit Windows, Intel Celeron N4000C CPU @ 1.1Ghz (2 CPUs), 8192MB RAM, Intel UHD Graphics 600 graphics card w/4134MB display memory, Realtek audio speakers (sounds OK), Realtek microphone, Microsoft USB 2.0 camera. I'm running Firefox as my browser and Malwarebytes along with Microsoft Defender to keep the bad guys at bay. Mousepad is big and responsive. I've found that the lower right corner of the pad is for right-clicking. Keyboard layout is good and is NOT backlit.I didnt find that the laptop ran particularly hot but haven't really put it through its paces, but it's not a gaming laptop for sure. I usually have it placed on a flat surface, and it does fine and doesn't overheat. Display is good and clear. For the money, its a good laptop and an additional 256G of memory makes this a light-weight full Windows-supported travel companion with WiFi and bluetooth support. Ive seen the price go up a few times, so get it while its under $300.
