Good for the price
I think this is a good budget laptop for people with basic needs like writing, web browsing, and watching videos, and at this price what it offers is better than the competition, and I've found it a large improvement over the Chromebook I'd been using. It's silent since it doesn't have a fan and it uses an SSD, which gives instant boot up and offers a lot of storage space. I was left with 180 GB of storage space free after installing a few basic programs. The speed is pretty good and it handles web browsing well, and it's been able to handle light games like visual novels and flash puzzle games.The monitor can be set to VERY bright, which makes it easier to see in daylight. The resolution is crisp. The colors are a bit washed out, but that's to be expected with a cheap laptop that isn't set up to handle photo or art editing. The viewing angle is perfectly sufficient for one user, but otherwise poor. The thin bezel means this 14" screen takes up as much space as my 11" Chromebook did. The case is slim but also slippery since there's no texture on it.There are some drawbacks. The keys are mushy and my fingers skip over keys easily if I am not hammering at them. The camera is located beneath the screen, which means that you will always be filmed from below the chin, which isn't flattering; it's also a bit grainy, but that's to be expected at this price. The power cord is only 5 feet, which is shorter than you think. The biggest problem has been the battery. It's duration is fine, but it seems to only charge if the laptop is on. I've plugged it in at night many times and woke up to an empty battery, only to turn it on, plug it in and have it charge like normal.Overall, I am happy with this, and it has allowed me to do most of what I need to do while out of the house and away from my PC, with much better performance than my similarly priced Chromebook did.

The Best Bang for Your Buck in a Laptop
Intro - I was dubious about this laptop initially. I normally only purchase high end laptops, but I saw lots of good reviews on tech websites about this laptop, so I thought I would give it a shot. I have to say – I am very impressed.Build quality – This was what I was most impressed with! I bought this exact laptop, the Jumper EZbook 3S Laptop 14”, and it was NOT plastic like tech websites have reviewed. It certainly doesn’t seem like it to me. Maybe it is a very high-grade plastic colored to look like aluminum, but if it is, it does a phenomenal job. I am psyched about the build quality. Minimal flex (essentially none) in the keyboard, the screen is actually really good, as good as my $1500 gaming laptop, and I’ve just been really impressed with everything.Battery – I haven’t conducted any official battery test with this, but it is plenty long. I came from a laptop that had 1.5-2 hours battery life, and now this laptop is giving me 8-10 hours. I give that range because I don’t want to exaggerate, but I certainly do not consider the battery in this laptop to be any kind of an issue.Internals – This was the most impressive of the bunch – there’s 6 GB of RAM. That’s more than most entry level laptops. Most have 2 or 4. 6 is very decent, and will do just about everything you need with multitasking. There is a 250 GB SSD in this laptop. That was a huge selling point for me. I tested the read/write speeds and it is just as good as any SanDisk, Toshiba, Seagate, any name brand storage device. I have been very impressed. Boot time is about 35 seconds from hitting the start button, and I’m more than pleased with it.Ease of Use – This laptop has been a breeze from start to finish. The touch-pad is great, the keyboard is a pleasure to type on, and the computer multitasking is excellent! I have loved literally everything about this laptop since getting it.Conclusion - This is a terrific deal at the $320 I bought it at. Don’t worry about the low number of reviews, it is a 5-star laptop that I think is PERFECT for anyone who wants Windows on a Macbook Air like laptop. You will not regret purchasing it. It is a 1/3 of the price for 8/10 of the quality. A great buy, and I would do it again in a heartbeat.If there are any issues, I will be editing and updating my review on here. If there are no issues in 6 months, I will note that as well.

Good inexpensive laptop - with some obvious flaws
Updated review:This is an inexpensive laptop that performs fairly well for the price point. The internal components are mediocre speed, but the SSD is much faster than a conventional HDD, so boots quickly. However cannot not run modest games well, because the internal heat builds up causing the computer to "throttle down" and slow to a crawl. This is due to the fact there is no internal fan, and not even any vents in the housing.It can do basic tasks okay without slowing down. Becsuse to this, I am returning.I find the keyboard has a good feel, and I didn't notice any flex. Display is bright. The 256 SSD provides a adequate of storage for programs / apps. The fit and finish are very good.There are some drawbacks of course. The two biggest cons are the TN display washes out quickly if the screen is tilted; and as mentioned, under high loads, the computer gets very hot on top and bottom and will slow down. I also had some issues doing Windows updates, but researching the error on line, found an easy fix by changing a couple parameters. One other annoying item - the scroll pad seems to scroll up / down in reverse action of all other Windows computers I have tried or used. Also be aware that if there are any warranty issues, it will need to be shipped to China for repairs.Finally, it could be a good choice if your needs are surfing, word processing etc.
