One thing to keep in mind is that most low-end laptops come with 4GB RAM but it is soldered to the motherboard so it can't be easily replaced. If the laptop has another memory slot you can add using that, but many don't have such a slot. They'll run with only 4GB but don't expect speed of any sort.

Another brilliant way to teach kids that computers are really great. Give them a literal clunker that lets them explore the underbelly of the IT world with a tool that can show one web page at a time. Maybe . With the specs on that and the auspicious name "Evolve", it should be rebadged as "The Dodo".

I have/had 2 similar devices based on same chipset/cpu. Both with broken screens now. Doesn't like too much pressure on screen. YouTube works fine because has video decoder in the graphics card. But heavy JS site would kill the performance. But for $80 with LTE support ...I'll give it a try.
