Overview

The good:
  • Extremely affordable
  • Good keyboard
  • Reasonable performance
The bad:
  • Short on connectors and expansion options
  • No clasp between lid and screen sections
  • Oddly located touchpad
The bottomline:

The 6720s is a competent performer and it could fit the bill if you don't need serious CPU or graphics power.
