Hi there,
I'm looking for opinions on these laptops I've found on Amazon, if you check out this link or search 'generic laptop' on amazon (UK) you will see what I mean. Does 'generic' in this case mean barebones or whitebook?
I can't find much info about the distributor (never a comforting sign) and their guy that answers customer questions doesn't provide much more insight. Despite the laptops being under at least a years warranty, them coming all the way from Hong Kong worries me, in case there did turn out to be a problem with it.
I have my eyes set on this model in particular, it has the kind of specs I am looking for and at a more affordable price than I've been able to find (perhaps I haven't looked well enough?)
So far, I have only seen two reviews on two separate laptops that are 'Generic', both give 5 stars, however they don't provide much more insight regarding the build quality, or whether driver updates can be easily obtained etc.
I would love to hear anyone else's thoughts on whether a purchase such as this is too risky or if there are any blatant details which should warn me against buying one of their laptops.
Many thanks for answers in advance!
