This didn’t work at all with my television, it’s about 20 feet away from a window but still with the positive reviews I thought it’d work. It’s definitely ultra thin, like a small poster board.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I ended up returning for a few reasons but largely because this laptop has some Microsoft windows thing where you pretty much can't download any program not in the Microsoft store unless you take it off of a designated safe mode, called S mode. Once you take it off its S mode you can't go back. I didn't understand it all and each time I tried to download basic things like MacAfee or a video conference program - it'd pop-up with a warning not to do it. I'd never seen anything like that, I did some googling about, but I wasn't in the mood to deal with it, so I returned it. Otherwise, it's a lightweight laptop, feels sort of cheap, but ran pretty smooth and quick (maybe because of S mode?).

I'm likely not going to end up using it as much as I thought. But I'd recommend if you need a small wireless keyboard with a mouse pad. If it was a little closer to the a regular, full size keyboard, I'd get more out of it. I'm just so used to the standard keyboard that this can get frustrating to type with because the keys are smaller and closer together. Super simple set-up and connection.

How is the fan noise and heating for this laptop? I purchased an HP, but its fan runs all the time with an annoying hum. I know laptops will make noise and heat up sometimes, but I'm in search for the best laptop under 1.1K that is quiet and fast.

 Samsung - 5.1-Channel Soundbar with Wireless Subwoofer and Acoustic Beam - Black
Samsung - 5.1-Channel Soundbar with Wireless Subwoofer and Acoustic Beam - Black
Upgrade your entertainment room with this Samsung soundbar. The 6.5-inch subwoofer and 1.5-inch tweeters deliver powerful well-balanced sound, and Bluetooth connectivity lets you stream audio wirelessly. This Samsung soundbar includes a remote control for handling playback easily, while the HDMI and USB ports allow for flexible connectivity to a wide range of devices.
 

Can this sound bar be hung under the TV or does it need some kind of shelf?

When I bought this I thought it could attach to the back of my mounted TV (65 inch Samsung) so it would hang and move with it, but when the person came to mount the TV they said it shouldn’t be done because the soundbar is too heavy for the TV to handle. Instead they mounted the sound bar directly into the wall so it’s free hanging under the TV. When I pull the tv away from the wall, the soundbar obviously doesn’t move with it, so I’m not crazy about that but oh well.

I keep reading that this has a noisy fan. Is there anything that can be done to make the fan quieter (beyond not using it heavily)? Just how annoying is it? I've had computers that emit a constant, loud hum, & I know they got very annoying very quickly.

How do I know if I have the 2020 version of the laptop? I just opened it today and right during the start up the fan started making noise and hasn't stopped, even with no programs, tasks, or apps opened. I thought people were being picky in the reviews, but this is too distracting to deal with, I'm getting a headache because there's a ring too it. I'd love to keep this and not deal with return and finding a new one, but the noise plus the heat it's emitting for just taking it out of the box is not worth it for the price.
