Boys! Girls! You can buy an i7 for $350! :D

First red flag: It is being sold by Walmart. Mom is always talking about the same company selling quality products and cheap ones, depending on where you buy them, so never buy from Walmart!

Second: It is an Evoo. I have heard the name, but I have never known anyone that bought one.

Third: It is a sixth-generation i7 from 2016!

My $300 Lenovo has a faster i3!

Also, whenever someone shares a Lenovo deal people talk about how unreliable they are.

One is an anomaly, two are a pattern?

The thing is, my Legion slowly became unreliable. My Ideapad started freezing pretty quickly.

Is the [more expensive] Legion faster and more capable, but the Ideapad is overwhelmed vastly easier?

Some people kept saying that nobody should sell computers with only 8 gigabytes. I thought that it would be fine if I used it lighter than my Legion with 16, but who knows?

By the way, I used Mom's $316 laptop [now $365] for a few days and it held up fine with 4 GB.
