I got this for my 7 year old step daughter. Ive only played with it in the box. It let's you demo it and play the games without taking it completely out. The screen is very bright and the picture is clear. I haven't figured out a volume control yet, which I will be as soon as she gets it! The games were fun. And it has a story mode where it will read a story to them. It teaches several subjects like most vtech products, including Spanish, math, spelling, language arts, etc. I think she will enjoy this and its been fun for me to just play the different modes trying to figure them out.

I wish I could write more positive things about this product; I would like to support the company since they have many good learning products for younger ages.

This "laptop" however is way off the mark: it's designed as though it was made in 1990 or earlier, and reminds me of very early desktop computers in design and function. The screen is tiny and hard to see. The graphics are from the era of Wargames. The device is also unintuitive and does not have a headphone jack, so how could a kid use this in a car or on a plane, as most kids today will do as a distraction? The absence of that was pretty shocking. It also is way too remedial for today's computer-savvy and learned preschoolers. My daughter turned four yesterday, and she already knows all the phoenetic stuff, and letters, sounds, etc. She's had an iTouch since she was 20 months, and is used to touch screens, not a mouse. That said, she's able to use my Sony VAIO to play pbskids.org and other children's games on a regular keyboard with touch mouse with no trouble. She has never used a adjunct mouse...My daughter is not fully versed in math as yet of course (addition, subtraction), so those functions may be useful in the future. She's known her animals since she was two. Perhaps the geography element might be helpful. I think some of the subject matter in part is appropriate for the youngest ages, but some of it is way off base as well. I hope Vtech reads these reviews and takes them constructively...thanks.

    Comments about Vtech Brilliant Creations Advanced Notebook:

    My son's grandparents bought this for him last year for christmas. The mouse cord broke within 2 weeks. The one good thing is that his grandparents bought an adapter. Since christmas was around this time I decided to revamp some of the toys that he hadnt played with throughout the year and bought a new adapter to replace the lost one. He likes playing with it but it doesnt deter him from playing with my laptop. He knows quality and the screen is not. I am debating on maybe just getting him a whole new laptop or replacing the mouse for his birthday. The disney netpal looks promising.

    I got this for my grandchild who just turned 5, I was afraid it would be too advanced for her, but she is doing great, she figured it all out on her own and after a week is sounding out words on her own,,, It needs more than batteries, maybe there is an adaptor available?

    Comments about Vtech Brilliant Creations Advanced Notebook:

    My three year old son loves this toy. A reminder to all parents that this IS a toy, not a real computer. It helps him undestand typing, clicking, and patience! It, like most toys, requires supervison and a little help here or there.
    He knows some of the programs, but it's always good to reinforce the material. This toy is encouraging and bright.

    I think it was one of the best Christmas presents he received. I will definately use this in the car, in public places (so he can sit still while showing off), and structured learning time.

    Educational

    Pros

    • Educational easy to use

    Cons

    • Too Loud

    Best Uses

      Comments about Vtech Brilliant Creations Advanced Notebook:

      Great little computer for an early learning experience. The only thing that I don't like about it is the sound. It's really too loud and the volume adjustment doesn't really make a difference. It's like they put a button there that makes a screen pop up. But, even moving the slider all the way down makes little to no difference in the volume.

      Just gave this as a birthday gift for a six year old and it was a hit right out of the box. There are different levels of learning and it has challenging games that also serve to educate while having fun. The mouse felt kind of flimsy, but I suppose that is to expected since this is primarily for young children. Wish there were more color options too...

          Comments about Vtech Brilliant Creations Advanced Notebook:

          My son got this as a Christmas gift last year. He was only one at the time, but I really wanted him to have it. Needless to say, for the longest time he just pushed buttons at random. But now he loves working on his phonics with it and is using it in the way it was designed. And he is only 2, so I feel the age it is directed at could be a bit lower.

          My son has been pretty rough with this thing yet it still works perfectly fine, so it's really durable. I've only had to change the batteries once when the battery that it came with died and he uses it very frequently so it's not a battery guzzler.

          It has a TON of activities across a span of topics. A year later and we still have not gone through all of the activities. It is definitely something that can keep your child's interest for years to come.

          On the negative side, the screen is smaller than it could be and the pixelated aspect is weird. You can tell what is going on, but I don't like the way it looks. Other than that, I have no complaints.
