OUR VERDICT

Had it not been for its ability to drive a pair of 4K monitors or being powered by a Type-C connector, our take on the J50C would have been lukewarm. But we like what we are seeing, especially at this price and with Windows 10 Pro. A solid buy if you can ignore the botched system disk setup.

FOR

  • Well designed
  • Can be powered by Type-C connector
  • Can work on as low as 1A
  • Plenty of ports
  • DisplayPort
  • Fast
  • Windows 10 Pro by default

AGAINST

  • Expensive for what it offers
  • No card reader
