Pros & Cons

Pros

Easy to install with readily available apple guidance or youtube. Not dazzling, but will get you by, and worth the price. Buy the memory kit and them pay to a qualify person to install the memory.

Bought this to upgrade my 8gb 27” imac. Memory works great but there was something funky when first boot up. Seems to have solved my original problem of my mac shutting down constantly because of not enough ram.

Cons

Do not recommend this seller. You’ve been warned. Very unhappy. Won't buy this brand again.

Even putting factory ram back in is futile. Does not work on the latest imac 27 crashes, kernel panic, frequent reboot.

Quality


I have a mid-2017 imac 27 inch retina with the 3.


Didn't have to play around with the slots.


This is a personal feeling and it has nothing to do with the memory itself since the laptop cannot use his full power anyway.


I did do a little research prior to purchase to ensure i bought a decent quality piece of ram and this manufacturer is highly r...  Read More

Price


Not dazzling, but will get you by, and worth the price.


Was able to upgrade my computer for a great price.

Packaging/appearance


Packaging very secure, but there is a trick to getting them out.


I was a little hesitant at fist because two 8gb modules showed up and were in identical packaging but the cards didn't look the same.


Was a bit concern that it might not work with stock apple ram.

Competitiveness


I bought this ram as an upgrade for a 2018 model lenovo flex 5-1470 which has a single dimm slot.


It's as simple as plugging it into the second so-dimm slot, rebooting the pc, and seeing it do the work.

    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    After i read a few reviews of how this ram doesnt match up with your stock ram i was a little hesitant on ordering it


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    But i thought i would give it a try since it was so cheap and i could just remove my existing 8 gigs of ram and just run 32 gigs


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    However if you havent done it before i suggest that you look at one of the youtube videos that show the step by step process
