Good price for the spec?

Hey all,

What do you think of this laptop with the price?

Looking for a laptop for work purposes, something that will be able to have a few programmes and a few Chrome tabs open at once, and something that has a decent battery - I'm a teacher, so looking for nothing to do with gaming, but just a reliable piece of kit that can handle Office programmes, the Internet, good sound, etc.

Had a Toshiba before and I was quite pleased with it

Here you go...as I said, I don't need a laptop for any gaming, just one that can handle multi tasking, decent battery, and can watch movies etc.

Budget is not to go over €500

Cheers!

Amazon v easy to do returns if any issues

Look up the Acer Timeline - some versions have 8 to 12 hours batt life

Otherwise just look at the most popular and best reviewed laptops on Amazon and grab the one with the longest battery life in your budget
