Might be doing a ton of updates.........

Please advise Which Store?

Rugby

I was going to post this when I got home as I picked one up at Westwood X, Kent, this lunchtime, but you beat me to it OP. Anyway apparently they had 30 in stock there so its obviously not limited to one store if it helps.

HEAT!

Tesco laptop is a better deal on other thread but seems a wild goose chase. This is a good price for the spec decent enough for home browsing. Heat.

Got this for £150 on New Years Day, returned it however because it said 500GB and it was actually 32GB, might think again at this price.

I bought netbook for £140 awhile back and thought was a good deal, but too small and too slow to be any use, similar spec to above, unless £100 all you can afford for computer I wouldn't bother, ull just end up with an expensive paper weight

Blackpool store has some

Purchased today from Tamworth store, 3 on shelf. More than happy, however an external hard drive will be a must eventually. But for £100 I have no complaints

None in Hazel Grove but have some heat

49 in darlo, 48 Harrogate, 71 Scarborough, 17 whitby, 42 in York amongst others :smiley:

Really! Thanks might nip back!!

*EDIT* went back and still couldn't see any.... Didn't want to ask about it and the 32GB would cause issues.....

cold terrible processor may as well get an android tabby

5 left on the shelf in Rugby about half an hour ago, one in someone's arms being contemplated. They're in the Sale section as you go into store, not at the back with usual tech bits.

Do I want it? Yes.
Do I need it? No way.

On the side of the box it states 500gb. I thought the 32gb MMC was just a boot partition.

A £5 32gb memory module seems a bit low. No 500gb drive mentioned on HP site

​Maybe it was labeled this way in store!!!

​On the box, a lable by the sellotape seal.

The 500GB confusion might be Cloud' storage..

Anyway, 21 left in Exeter Alphington. Not on the shelf, if you want one just ask at the service desk

It looks like an add on sticker specifically placed on sainsburys deliveries.
It says "Pack - Sainsburys Supermarket" - Item Description - 14 - AC100NA CEL 2GB/500GB BLACK W10

It would seem that the HP 14-AC108NA has the 500gb drive

None left in Stafford. 3 left in tamworth

Any in Liverpool or near? Is there a way to check without the journey?

The box says 32GB

none in sevenoaks. say they never heard of the deal

any in Sunderland

I have bought it hour ago for my son. Giving back tomorrow 1st think in the morning! SLOWEST THINK IVE EVER SEEN !!!! It cant even open www page. Takes ages

And it's definitely 32 GB. Never seen 32GB before to be honest

Apparently, so not much space left with windows 10 installed.

I was thinking of this for my 8 year old daughter but unable to find much info or reviews on it. Very slow internet browsing was mentioned on several other sites.

Probably loads of bloat that could be roved or stick Ubuntu on it? Or maybe even a slim version of windows 7

fab buy for £100. if it's not displayed ask, my local store has them in the back

My first thought when I saw this post was that for £100 it can't be bad. However that CPU is dire, looking at cpubenchmark it scores less than 60% of the 2955u, which is used in the better Chromebooks. It even scores lower than the Atoms in the current crop of Windows tablets. I would expect it to be fine for basic word processing, but can imagine that web browsing could be really sluggish.

fab laptop deal for £100. if not on display ask, my store had stock in back :smiley:

I am not sure of that, but i think i saw in some pictures a optical unit, or probably is just an empty bay. If so, u can buy a internal caddy for 8 pounds or so and add a laptop hdd or even a ssd inside

Stock in Basingstoke Festival Place... though have to agree with comments that the processor is likely to be very poor

Does anyone know the Sainsbury returns policy for laptops? Thanks.

After speaking to Sainsburys it would seem the deal started on black Friday at £150 however they didn't sell hence lowing the price further. The Processor and low drive space is obsiously swaying people away. In real terms £100 is probably it's real value when comparing to similar priced windows tablets that perform better.

Bought one this morning from Melton Road store in Leicester. 2 left on shelf.

How do you check if it is in stock at a particular store??

20+ left on the shelf in Sainsburys, Durham.

I'd be interested to know how people are getting on with these who have purchased since this deal was posted.

Anyone fired one up yet? I bought it only for Xbox one streaming as seems a lot more back for my buck than a Linx 10" Tablet I bought a couple of weeks back.

20+ on the shelf in Sainsburys, Durham.

:confused: power of a 6 year old core2duo

waste of money

Bought Hp stream for my mum as xmas present with the same specs, that thing is slow, but definitely worth 100 quid

There is nothing wrong with Core2Duo, its all down to what do you need it for !! I still have my core2duo working hard and doing what it spouse to do!!

but whats the point ? you can buy a used i5 i7 for £100 on ebay

6 left in Ladbroke Grove London. I ummed and arred about it, and decide to give it a miss due to the low specs. This is not a laptop equivalent to those who have commented previously.

hi anyone got the barcode??

And the laptop to go with it? These are slow as hell, but you get small form factor, great battery life etc. Deals on 15.6in laptops will always be better value but have their own downsides at budget prices (bulky, heavy, poor battery life)

I've spent ages looking for a cheap 13.3in Win10 lappy since xmas. For the avoidance of doubt this is an astonishing deal, only thing that comes close in the acer cloudbook currently 149.99 at currys.

You cannot get a similar laptop, or even one with a faster processor for anywhere near £100 on ebay. I picked up a warehouse deal on amazon for £150 with slightly better processor and ram...but this is an incredible deal if you recognise its shortcomings.

shame they use surface mounted cpu`s , as could put a decent cpu in which would make it a good deal.

mugs already putting this garbage on ebay

also in the east kilbride store but just kept walking as not worth the cash in my opinion.

yes u are perfectly right my friend
just got mine two hours ago, got home, played a bit with that useless win 10, and cracked it oped half a hour later.
u can't change the ram, as suspected, but u can change the storage. the emmc drive sits in a 2,5" bay intended for normal storage. i found on ebay (but i will keep digging) for 10 pounds the appropiate cable for connecting a 2,5" drive, as the one it has now is specially designed for the emmc drive
then i will get a ssd from my old laptop in, after wich i will probably dig hard for some win 7 drivers
it is a good laptop from my point of view

anyone got the barcode of this??

I just did some work in Mansfield so called into Sainsburys for some lunch.

They had one left on the shelf. Not in the usual technology area though, this was in the seasonal offers isle directly opposite where you walk in.

Regards
Flea

Is this worth getting ? Got one reserved

None in Burton but Tamworth have some. The shelf label is in the seasonal reduced isle with TV's but the shelf was empty. Asked the phone/tech staff at the back of the store and there are plenty left :smiley:

there is a couple left in the wigan sainsburys. I picked one up today for my daughter and I'm pretty surprised with what everyone was saying.i was looking at ones around the £400 mark with a i5 processor but didn't want her to break it so I took a stab at this and I'm glad I did. I got it for her to do her home work on and general browsing of the web and for that its perfect. I admit its not lightening fast and the screen isn't amazing but it will do what she will need it for.
I also downloaded bluestacks onto it which allows me to install and play android apps however this will only be used for movie and music apps and it had no issue playing the new james bond movie.
for £100 I really cant grumble and am contemplating to get one for myself to use as a sort of media hub.

thanks op heat added

Hi, Is this a fan-less laptop?

you will be stuck with the cpu trying to process the internet data

Gotta vouch for what everyone else has said, this notebook is pants. It's can't even load the basic BBC website without it taking an age. Even going through the start menu is laggy. I'll be attempting to take mine back tomorrow, doubt I'll get anywhere though.

Nothing to do with the wifi, numerous devices running through it with no issues.

Still got stock in Alder Park, Poole.

Leeds white rose had 10 in stock in morning

Nearly bought one earlier but changed my mind after reviewing specs, comments on here, confirming whether I really need it. Specs are poor and I don't need it. It's a good price if someone needs a cheap Internet and word processor pc

​alternatively you could just get a decent sized USB drive or USB hard drive

Is it easy enough to replace the eMMC with an SSD? believe a small cable is needed.

I got one ..... stuck unbuntu on it and its perfect for most day to day surfing and a 5+ hour battery life.

plenty of space inside of you want to hack some additional storage inside ..... 2gb memory is fixed though.

Had about 3 in Brentwood store tonight but decided against it.

you are joking ? i sold i5 laptops on ebay for around £130 before i could find you one for less than 100 easy

i still have a couple of t410`s to get shot of that wipe the floor with this useless machine for not much more

Where can you get the Asus for £120?

Ms store - oos at the moment but check

Thats a bit strange as the bloke said to me they had about 75, yesterday had about 20 left...

The ASUS also has an 11" screen ........ the bigger screen was one of the reasons I went for this. I already have an old netbook and the screen/keyboard is too small.

I did have to install the wireless drivers .... bluetooth worked out of the box not too sure about the camera as I dont have any use for it anyways.

Took me 15 minutes to wort the wireless card.

I went there about 7:30pm, the staff show me Ac101na priced £199, the lady was trying to help, they might hiding it somewhere else them. lol

It was on white display table with the other laptops/tablets with an orange label for £100, def the Alder Park one between Wallisdown and Branksome? He said they had been selling 6 or 7 a day.

Yes, went there, there isn't any little card in the place where you can take one to the customer service, so I asked one of the staff, may go check later, might as well get my son one if they do have it

He grabbed one from the stock room just behind the desk between the deli counter and the tv's.

Loads left in Fareham

Stock in Kidderminster

technophobe here please help acer aspire es11 (es1-131-cs11) need for light duties or this one looked online for comparison couldnt find ... please could someone let me know, sorry if this seems like a silly question?

Stock in Ringwood, also have Linx 8 tablet £50.

Stock in Hillsborough,Sheffield Sainsbury's.

Dunstable have a couple left on the shelf. I asked what their returns policy is and they said if it had been switched on it couldn't be returned. I bought one anyway and now need to read all the reviews and decide whether to open the box or take it back within 30 days.......

Thank goodness I haven't opened mine. I was dithering as the specs didn't seem too good but there was only one left (I later found out loads round back - Kings Lynn, Hardwick) and my impulsive side took over. As soon as I got home I checked for reviews.....
Can I take back to any store, does anyone know?

So I plucked up the courage to open the box and try it - effectively blowing the prospect of any refund from Sainsburys. My conclusion is that this is £100 well spent. If you just want a laptop for internet, watching downloaded videos or catch up TV this is fine. If you want it to do video encoding or heavy weight processing look elsewhere. My desktop PC has a I5 processor with 8 gig RAM and of course that is faster. But for £100 this is a bargain.
Screen is ok - colours not as vibrant as on my monitor or on dearer laptops I have used, but its fine. I like the keyboard and the plastics do not betray the low price paid. Its silent in operation and doent get hot like some laptops I have used. You pays your money and takes your choice but I honestly think this is good value. Look beyond the specs and figure out what you will use it for.

Apologies - Everytime I look at this page my post reposts itself all by itself.

So we have a half page of negative comments one after the other... Not sure how that works; but seriously my unbiased opinion is - it's a cracking deal if you need a laptop for occasional / light use!

Please oh wise master, find us a deal that has better for the cash? You're wealth of knowledge and experience should not be wasted, let it forth to spread the word.

It's £100 though! I just got two to operate some old software record keeping for some weighbridges. New, low spec processor with very little power consumption, no fan required. Adequate, reliable solid state memory. Don't care if they get dusty and bashed about. Tougher than a windows tablet.

Far better option than 'superior' used/refurb stuff that some filthy creature has probably left running for months whilst browsing lord knows what.

Ok for wordprocessing / spreadsheet. Not a great option for much else, bar basic browsing. The screen is disappointing, lacking clarity and a bit washed out, but no worse than tablets at this price.

3 left at Edinburgh Murrayfield in electrical sale bit at front of store.

None left in the Hanley Store or Stafford went to Nantwich store and purchased 2. If not out and there is a space for them ask somebody to look in the back as this is where we found ours. Another idea is calling or visiting your local store to check for stock or ask them where the nearest store to them has them in stock. As they can see on the computer how many are in stock at other stores.

Around 20 of these left at Sainsburys Arnison Centre, Durham, this afternoon.

Having been using this now for a week (initial impression wasn't that good) but now feels like a good purchase (it must have been doing updates when I first got it). For £100 you can't grumble, as long as you buy knowing its limits then it's a steal. I wanted it mainly for browsing, online TV and Xbox streaming and for all of them it works really well with no issues.

Any in Bristol or portishead

This laptop takes ages to start up

your point is pointless

There is one left in the Crayford store on shelf in seasonal section. Be Lucky !

Lol people that are complaining about the specs. It's £100.

this laptop, with an entry level 240 gb ssd on it and windows 7 moves like a champ. Good battery life as well. it is way faster than the win 10 + emmc combination it previously had. and the two gigs of ram are more than enough for it, considering that with win 7 pro x64, antivirus, all drivers, and a good amount of software, it only uses less than 1gb at idle. Browsing experience is better too as it can handle a 1080 p video on youtube and several other tabs in the same time on chrome with ease. if u can afford the upgrade go for it. it just requires a 23 pounds adapter u can find on amazon, an ssd ( or an hdd for that matter, but it would be slower and use more battery) and some skill to replace it. good luck

I got it again at £100, still in the box will return if I find it at £50, thanks!

Do you just go back with the receipt or the laptop too? Paid £100 for ours not used for xmas present £50 off be a lovely bonus.

For anyone else wondering which converter to use when replacing the 32gb eMMC storage with an ssd/hdd. This one from Amazon worked fine for me: HP SSD HDD Adapter

Much better now, even using Windows 10. Installing fresh worked fine and activated automatically without using any product keys. Drivers available on HP site as some Windows drivers caused issues - eg. wifi (worked but very limited range).
