The most impressive thing about the Intel N100 (on paper at least) is the 6W TDP. This laptop comes with a 20W power supply and it might be fanless. Not your typical "gaming" laptop.
It has plenty of vent holes underneath, and I spied a fan.
this is a nice little laptop, especially on sale for $249 with a quad-core, 8GB, 256GB.
Came with Win11 of some sort, but did NOT prompt for networking or MS ID. Just create a local username and go. Quite a refreshing change from your average HP or Lenovo.
Keyboard's pleasant to type on, doesn't look at all water-resistant, however.
Maybe it's the extra physical RAM, maybe it's the lack of bloatware A/V software pre-installed, but this thing seems "perky", "breezy", especially compared to the AMD 3050e with 64GB eMMC that was paging nearly all of the time.
Webcam is pretty dark in Skype. It's mid-day/afternoon here, sunny out, with blind drawn, LED bulb on next to me, and my "local cam" in Skype looks like it's night-time. Maybe there's some adjustment possible, this is the first time that I've used the cam just now.
Edit: I don't know if I got a bad unit or what, and I DID remove the peel-off sticker in front of the camera, but this webcam on this unit is DOA, practically, due to lack of light sensitivity, and trying to hit the left side of the spacebar with my left thumb isn't working, gotta hit the spacebar in the *center* it seems.
Wifi is good.
