No issues so far, checked all the ports, like HDMI/USB/USB-C/MicroSD, trackpad works ok, keys are good best laptop keyboard I used, nipple mouse is annoying so I don't use it at all.

Yeah its surprisingly pretty good!!! only tested minecraft on it so far but runs really well on it (after tweaks around 100'ish FPS) I really like it, also have a Dell Latitude E7470 but didn't post cos they are virtually identical spec spec wise.
