This distro is under the radar but its actually very very good. Rock solid, very thoughtfully laid out ergonomics. Looks great too. Seemingly out of nowhere here comes a Linux distro ready for prime time.

I have to say it! One of the best distros I have used. I like to customize my software, but everything is so simple. Once I selected a local mirror, updates are quick and seamless.... The Deepin Store, has pretty much any app you need to find.... otherwise, based on debian, simply find the .deb you need.
I have had no issues with programs that I use. Transcoding video files is easy. The file manager doesn't let me down either.

Pros:
-Very nice with minimal resource usage.
-Able to more easily change default programs as opposed to GNOME3
-Built on Qt framework, a framework designed for all developers, not just GNOME devs
-Amazing deepin-specific programs. Everything is very clean and polished
-Pretty up to date packages. It's basically Debian Unstable + deepin desktop but with every package heavily tested
-All of the programs I wanted to install work flawlessly
Cons:
-Deepin is SLIGHTLY buggy. Definitely less than KDE Plasma but sometimes a program won't close correctly, Surprisingly, after a while it actually DOES close and everything returns to normal.
-The software center collects a very small amount of system information with HTTP encryption. The data it collects is completely ethical and nothing to be alarmed about but I do wish it would use HTTPS encryption. No harm intended here

Beautiful.
Great alternative to set up for someone who was a Windows user/ not very tech savvy.
The store has more quality apps than any other distro I have tried.
May need to run ls /etc/apt/sources.list.d and delete Spotify's ppa. It would not work for me.
Heavy on resources, but for good reason. Looks great, Can handle running VMs through virtualbox well. (I you want a similar-looking distro that is more lightweight I would recommend Elementary.)

Very nice looking Distro. Works well out of the box with minor configurations. Power users can still get a lot of use out of it. Built on Debian is always a plus for me. The download from deepin.org does not work for me, although 15.5 is available on sourceforge. Go there if you cant get the link to work from this page.

Grandpa loves this O/S. Everything is installed or at the Deepin app store. You do not have to be a Terminal Guru. After five years on different Linux distro's, this is number one for me. I have four distros/partitions on my M.2 drive and I always boot into Deepin. I run deepin on an ssd on a Sabertooth/ FX 8350/ R9 270/16 GB 2400C11. I run deepin on an M.2 on a TUF B350M/ R5 1600X/ RX 580/ 32GB 2933C15. Deepin is flawless. I had great hopes for Makulu that finally a distro for higher end hardware would be available. Makulu will create a speed disk on your ram, but I don't know what to move to that disk. Makulu doesn't integrate Hi DPI on a 32 inch 1440p monitor on all my apps.

The graphical interface and design is amazing. This is one of the unique distros where i didn't need to change anything, because it's everything polished out of the box.
The unique cons is that the software included in their repositories and Deepin Store is really very outdated.

At the risk of upsetting many Linux Gurus, I don't care what shell, kernel I’m using or what platform it is, Debian, Ubuntu, etc… Don’t get me wrong, I like to mess about a little and that’s why I’ve always been a fan of KDE distros. The choice for a newbie is hard because most of the frontends like Cinnamon, mate, etc… (even my beloved KDE) are all variations on the same theme. The only way I found to separate them was on their easy to install apps, Mint and Neon being my own personal favourites. I did try Elementary after seeing some good reviews, but I found it bland, uninspiring and unreliable.
I happened across a comment that mentioned Deepin as their preferred desktop release. I have never heard the name, so I have just (against all advice) installed it as a virtual machine. It generally runs like a dream, though the updates, despite being configured to a UK server, are painfully slow. So we’ll just have to see if I can get round that. Beauty (like my comments on Elementary) is subjective, but I really like the look and feel of Deepin. I love the ease at which I have found this distro to pick up. Everything appears to be found exactly where you expect to find it. I understand that this is the developer’s goal and by heck they have hit it bang on...well done! I will have to keep Windows10 for all of the apps that are not available on this platform, but I have a feeling I am going to continue to be impressed by this distro. I have yet to use it in earnest, so only time will tell how stable it is. For now though, this is the only Linux distro that feels something new (to me anyway).

This is the best OS EVER. As being a linux OS that actually uninstalls and installs easily. All different OS's should follow this OS's example. Only thing is more hardware support and security should be their main focus. I would even pay money to get this OS as I believe its the best OS out there period. Better then windows, MacOS or any other linux distros out there.

Deepin is the first Linux that I have tired.Once I saw it on my mobile phone when I was watching news.As I know it is developed by Chinese team,I am really shocked and I want to have a try.In my mind,Chinese software industry seems a little weak except game software like Tencent.
After I tried,it is not bad and it is easy to install。You may just need a U disk and a few minutes and it is installed automatically.It really suits the foolish beginner just like me.haha.What Deepin impress me most is the simple and beautiful interface. There are many basic apps in Deepin that we often use.Such as WPS and Wangyiyun Music(Chinese name).WPS is very popular in China and it's a good alternative to Microsoft Office.Attention,it's free and it can compatible with Microsoft Office.That's may be the key point.
However,it may lack some professional software that only in Windows.Because there are so many CAD apps in my laptop,my Windows runs slowly.Deepin is a good choice for me to relax in spare time.Today I write so much with my poor English.Just because the company which create Deepin is in Wuhan,China.And I am a local in Wuhan.It's not far from where I am.Just several stations by subway. When I have learned this ,I am surprised and looking forward to visit their company in Optical valley when there is a right chance.

I'm loving Deepin. Deepin is the first Linux experience. Beauty and ease have conquered me. My sister saw it on my laptop and also wanted it on her laptop.
The store is great. Thank you!
Everything seems very well done and well thought out.
The cons are only in detail like:
I would like the dark theme to be available in more applications, such as file manager for example;
The design of the notifications needs to be refined for longer texts, sometimes I lose information;
The precision of the pointer using touchpad needs to improve a bit;
If the calendar sync with Google would be great.
Anyway is a great system, stable, very beautiful, customizable and pleasant.

In an attempt to bring an older Macbook pro (2009) to 2018, and with Apple not supporting their own hardware anymore, I decited to have a go at Linux. After an unsuccesful attempt with Zorin (very unstable on this Mac) and Elementary (nice and stable but couldn't get the nvidia drivers to work properly) I installed DEEPIN OS.
The image took forever to download but once installed it worked very smoothly right out of the box. The only points of critique are that the app shop is sometimes rather slow and I had a little trouble installing the printer properly.Other than that this distro is a perfect match for the "old" mac and turned the machine into a quick and powerful 2018 performer.
Deepin comes with a nice office (WPS) suite pre-installed, video player, audio player... etc. I chose to install Libreoffice as well since i use that suite on all my machines in mac OS, Windows and Linux. The Deepin app shop has all the usual Apps and more and installing is just one mouseclick away, which is nice. For a Mac user the navigation is a breeze and the OS can be tweaked and changed (I pretty much left it as is).
I'm relatively new to Linux and I'm not someone who likes to do a lot of coding and tweaking. I just want an OS that works. On an old G5 I've got Ubuntu mate running which works and looks great as well. However, I prefer the "out of the box" characteristics of an OS like Deepin or Elementary. Bitten by the Linux microbe I'm curious to find out more and experiment with different distro's on other machines. The old Mac shall remain a Deepin machine.

for those windows users looking for an alternative free OS, this is it. guaranteed desktop friendly: easy to install & use. updates, drivers on ryzen cpu.
one gripe 'though: v15.5 with 4.9xx kernel, doesn't load on hdmi monitor on install. needed a dvi/vga monitor to get pass "out of range" error. maybe, on the next release, updated kernels for the iso-installer will be nice.
but over-all, this could be the linux for desktop for the masses.

VirtualBox work good and LibreOffice 6.0.1.

I am a big time distro hopper but since i started using Deepin 15.5 i have absolutely fallen in love with it. The best thing is it's very easy for those users who are migrating from Mac or Windows to Linux.
It has great looks and Deepin native applications are as good as any of there alternatives. I am using it from last 2 months approx and I have 0 complains about it.
If you have not tried it then you must check it out once.

(+) Very beautiful and easy to use.
(-) ZERO support - zero documentation unless you can read Chinese.
Warning: NOT STABLE YET - DO NOT USE FOR IMPORTANT WORK AS YOU MIGHT VERY WELL LOSE YOUR DATA.
Upgrades break it.
If a program you want is not listed in the Deepin store you probably will not be able to use it- example: Wireshark will not work. Nether does WINE or Oracle tools either.
If you want an eye candy distro just for reading email and web surfing you are in luck.
As soon as something- anything - breaks- guess what? Time to re-install because you are not going to fix it.

By far the best linux distro I ever tried. Not because how it looks (though it's design look amazing) but because everything works out of the box, and it has features that put almost every other distros to shame when it comes to easy to use.
The only downside is the sometimes outdated softwares, but you can request an update at their forums.

The best looking distro in existence by a long shot! Gorgeous design and very satisfying user experience, everything's just so well thought out. Seems to be somewhat heavy on system resources, though.
Seems to be stable, everything's working on my Dell Latitude E7440. Hibernate/standby, resume from standby - everything fine. Touchscreen is also working. The packaged version of Skype was already outdated and did'nt work (the app crashed after I logged in). I replaced it with Skype Preview which is working well. The bundled packages seem to be somewhat dated overall. WPS office only supports two languages (Chinese and English), I tried to add other languages, but was not successful yet. WinSCP is also working thanks to Crossover :-)
The app store is rich and well maintained. Local mirrors for faster download speeds exist. Video playback is very smooth without the need for compton/compiz etc. (One of the big issues with all linux distros out there.)
I've tested many distros and liked a lot of them, but this one really outshines them all and clearly deserves a 10.

It is amazing to see popular Linux sites come out with lists of "best distros" and keep missing on Deepin and Manjaro. It feels like they don't want the public to know about those. In the case of deepin as I already read, THIS by far is the best Linux distribution I have aver tried, Extremely user friendly, beautifully design and countless options when it comes to utilities. My only complaint with it, is that the software versions on the app-market always run little behind to pretty much everybody. I had every possible thing I can think of when I installed it, everything native and available on my first run. "CROSSOVER" is a life saver.
AGAIN if you read this, do yourself a favor and try Linux Deepin, YOU WILL NEVER LOOK BACK. I currently have Linux deepin on a Lenovo Thinkpad x Carbon and Manjaro-deepin flavor on my Acer v17 Nitro black edition.

This is by far the best Linux distro I've tested... It's a real "easy", "out-of-the-box", "Windows and Mac lke", "beautiful looking", "well-done", "user-friendly" distro.
It rocks! It also has the one of the most complete stores in Linux world. So well made and good-looking app store. Nice effects and details.
Deepin are creating their own applications, that's cool
Cons:Unfortunately, some more complex and deep settings are missing
The mirrors are to low if you live far from China, even though you can change it.
Neutral: Some users can feel it a bit laggy due to their PC specs. If you don't have a decent PC, don't try to use desktops enviroments like DDE (Deepin, GNOME, KDE, Unity)...

Well, I have to admit it, I have tried different linux flavors, and I am back with Deepin, iy has everything you may desire is a complete OS, the deepin store lets you install more than you may need ever! but if something is missing, you can install it, The update part, have no problems with it, just find the right server in you area, I always use one in USA, and have no problems updating and installing packages.
Is a nice looking distro, plus it is fully functional, just try it, you defibetly are going to stick with it,
Nice speed, its use more memory than many others, but, most of us have plenty of ram in our system, it use around 1 to 1.2-1,5 gb in ram.

Very tricky to configure mutliple monitors succesfully especially if they are of differing resolutions. The operating system and DDE looks pretty but, it has to be much more than look pretty. It must have the full range of functionality to configure it on a good range of hardware. Trying to configure it on a notebook computer with hidi and an external monitor of 1920x1080 was tedious to say the least. The idea of having all the control panel / system setup functions in a side panel aka Windows 10 notification panel is different ... read quaint and awkward. Just a pretty operating system that below the surface is pretty clumsy. Hopefully it will improve.

WARNING: The upgrade to 15.5 just broke my file system. All relevant links are broken. I can access some folders through various means and other folders simply will not open. This happened immediately after the 15.5 upgrade.
I am now trying desperately to recover school documents from the last semester :(
As unlikely as it may seem I had a bunch of my docs in Office Live and they are thankfully still there.
The Deepin User Forums are completely and utterly useless.
I have been a member there for over a year and no one gives a damn about any questions whatsoever.
It IS a gorgeous looking operating system but without some kind of online backup I would never pretend to use it for anything other than testing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Clean efficient but slightly different desktop featuring a dock that is probably its most useful feature. The dock also holds the system tray.
System settings slide out from the right are are easy to use but you need to get used to it but once you do it all feels quite sophisticated.
Main menu is highly configurable and incorporates application search.
I have bee n using Deepin on my 14inch laptop with a low end Celeron dual core CPU / 4gb RAM and performance is good once the system has settled down

Me encanta tanto como linux mint, aunque no puedas compararlo como si fuesen de una misma rama, debo decir que va muy bien, y es muy rapido, usado en un HP Pavillon dv6, me carga incluso mas rapido que muchos otros linux, y teniendo en cuenta su gran aspecto visual me sorprende que solo el escritorio sin abrir ningun browser se mantenga debajo de los 800 de ram, habra otros mas ligeros si, pero este tiene un punto intermedio con un aspecto y entorno sorprendente. Ya incluso lo tengo instalado en otros 2 ordenadores, es un entorno que lo veo muy agradable e ideal para toda la familia y personas con conocimientos basicos acostumbrados a ordenadores de windows y a usar smartphones de android.
Para uso comercial es un entorno de escritorio sorprendente y muy atractivo, ojala mas distros de linux acaben teniendo una opcion a un entorno como el de deepin.
Espero que el propio Deepin siga evolucionando y mejorando en todos los aspectos que pueda mejorarse.
Por ahora a mi ya me tiene muy muy satisfecho.

I have used Deepin off and on for years, sometimes on Manjaro. In the early days I was not too happy with it because I was used to KDE and it is more like Gnome to me and that was a negative but, with the advent of touch screens I have become used to it. I like the way it installs and I have had no problems with it. It just works. The only thing I would like is for it to show upgrades necessary. It is fast and has a great selection of software. I like it because it is differrent and loaded with eye candy. I get bored easily so it is nice that I can customize it to my preference. Overall it is great and I have it on my touchscreen laptop. It is going to stay there too. It is without a doubt an easy to use beautiful distro.

I would like a more user configurable Menu_Launcher.
Any GNU/LinUX distro that is aimed to atract ex Windows O.S. user should have —pre installed— the latest version of WINE (even do they como with PlayOnLinux or CrossOver).
I think this version is excellent but could get better.
If I do not use deepin I would use MAKULU LinDOZ (if it could be installable) or CHALET O.S. (if it is actaullized).

- Lacking a live version is really sad.
- On an old desktop with 8Gb of RAM and an I5 it lagged very badly
- appreciated all the in-house apps that have potential
- has a fresh look however a bit too heavy
- did not detect my 5 yrs old NVIDIA automatically

Great experience with this distro - no snags, blindingly fast. Very happy with Deepin after using Peppermint for years and having stability issues.

Very easy to use, and looks pretty out of box. I used to spend long time to customize looks and feel but not on this one. Software centre is one of the best I ever see. Event tested under VBox on my Mac, and deepin is the only one that run smoothly with my i5 mac.

I keep switching beween the distro looking for cool beautiful looking desktop os.
But, could not find what I was looking for, until I tried DEEPIN.
Now, I harding wanted to come back to windows 10.
Seriously, this distro is beautiful. Plus it has all the app that I need, easily instable.
Great Job.

I'm running 15.5 Beta on a G50 lenovo laptop amd4 processor. I like what they are doing with the easy to access control panel. Wifi drivers all there and working. A good environment for my travel lap top, as you can install Google earth and maps, single click. Minor issues. Deepin music sometimes crashes, the sound is set up well and is quick to direct to which ever port you choose, music can be accessed during playback via play controls sitting on top (after the security screen appears- handy for privacy a socials). Can't seem to boot video from lap top to big screen tv greater than 720 hd. Copying issues, I found that I have to create a folder on external drives to then backup folders on the computer- will not directly reproduce the copied folder to external drive. Nice selection of software in the repositories and can install Synaptic package manager for more apps. runs well. I will be keeping this one on this laptop and running Opensuse KDE Plasma on the other. overall really good distro.

the most usable linux which can replace windows in the daily working or entertainment. However, it is still unstable sometimes. This is the most defect I cann't bear. But as I said in the beginning, it makes users comfortable without too many coding work.

Excellent distribution. For this distro, I removed windows from my computer which was a dual boot (about 22 years). I think I will never change it for a long time (perhaps 20 years!!)

The only reason why I took 1 point off is that there are still some minor bugs, and some missing features. For example, I am running Deepin on a Thinkpad W520 now, and I cannot turn the bluetooth off, even though in settings, it tells me it is turned off. For the missing feature, I really want if the developer team can add something like the color manager in ubuntu for user to use their own icc/icm files to regulate the screen color. Although I know and I am currently using xcalib to load icm file, I think it would be more user friendly if the developer team can make an app for user to load the icc/icm file. But all in alll, Deepin is definitely a very good distro overall, and I am really looking foward to seeing it become better.

This distribution includes a store that contains even proprietary software by default, in my eyes that's rather pragmatic. Others may disagree, but I think pragmatism like this can get a distribution to be more user-friendly in the long-term.
The distribution also includes utilities and packages that are specifically for it and the D.E., it makes for a nice and comprehensive experience out-of-the-box especially with the previous pluses I mentioned added on.
My gripes with the distribution come with the desktop environment itself, and that the packages are not as up-to-date as I'd like (but it is very stable to, as if make up for this).
Very user-friendly distribution and was overall a good experience.

除了我的显示器用DP输出2K有点问题外其它可以说对中国用户已经相当不错了，DP输出2K的问题估计下次更新就可以搞定了，并不是什么难事儿。如果不是因为我是小白，可能已经自己搞定了。
简单易用是DEEPIN给人的第一印象，惟一一个装完就可以直接用的发行版

I have given this distro 9, as I do not believe anything is perfect.
Deepin is a very good distro. I do not agree with some of the package choices, so I will change them for my own personal preferences.
Reviewers that complain about the use of certain packages should remember that the joy of Linux is that the user has total control over which packages they choose to use.
If you don't like a package provided by the developer, change it. Even a novice can install and use Synaptic to install Firefox and LibreOffice, deleting Google Chrome and WPS, if they so wish.
The ultimate reason for using any Linux distro is freedom. Freedom of choice. Freedom from cost. Freedom from Windows and the waiting for endless updates to complete.
I am personally disappointed at developers stopping producing 32 bit versions of Linux distros. One of the joys of Linux is that it helps keep old, but serviceable, hardware in use. There is still a lot of older hardwares out there that are being kept alive by Linux. Let us hope that not all developers will jump ship on 32 bit.

After Deepin 15.2 in June 2016, a new test of Deepin 15.5.
Even if Deepin is based on Debian, a true free/libre distribution, this distro coming from PRC is not promoting the free/libre software as defined by the FSF. Deepin is installing by default to many non-libre; i.e. proprietary, and closed softwares like Chrome (vs Firefox), WPS (vs LibreOffice), CrossOver (vs Wine), etc. I can understand pushing with many care proprietary s/w only and only if there is not free/libre s/w alternative, which is not the case for at least the 3 above mentioned s/w.
Deepin is not taking care at all about the values of the free/libre software and he is only focusing on the technical aspects of its distro. It's they rights, but it's also our rights to highlight this contradiction for a distro which is based on Debian, of course free of charge for Deepin.
Technically this distro has still too many bugs from the installation to the every day use, awa the updates. The only positive aspect of this distro is its desktop environment (DDE) which is one of the best I have tested.
Nevertheless, why willing to switch from Big Brother Windows and/or macOS to end to an other potential Big Brother which is Deepin, here v.15.5.
Personally, I don't recommend at all Deepin. There are enough true free/libre distributions available on the market, so that everyone can easily find his-her happiness and get rid-off as much as we can from proprietary and spying softwares.

Quite polished and functional.
Nice to not need a "Linux" translation dictionary to find something as simple as "File Manager".
Been trying distro's of Linux since late '90's. Corel Linux was nice but died.
I've been a Windows user since Win 3.1, not because I wanted to be but because there has been no other choice.
I've been using Deepin exclusively on one laptop and another similar distro on another laptop for about a week now. I am very happy with them and intend to keep them.
Everything on both laptop's worked after install.
I hate Windows, not because it doesn't work but because they own whoever uses it. Cannot switch on my desktop: Gaming, Adobe, Video Editing...
The only way Linux will get the marketshare of it's potential is to make switching from Windows to Linux easy. Not just for the end user but for hardware vendors.
The Linux Community needs to back distro's like this, if only to gain a solid market-share to make it worthwhile for Hardware and Software vendors provide support for Linux.
Thank you to the Deepin Community for having vision of how to move Linux into the mainstream and providing an excellent product.

Very polished, one of the best looking Linux distro's I've tried, and I've tried loads.
Would love to see a few more Icon and Window themes included as standard.
Is one of the few distro's that works out of the box, with zero issues.
Thanks Deepin for my daily driver and I look forward to future releases.

This is one of the few Linux distributions that I have found that installs easily and runs great on a 2012 Macbook Pro.
Resolution on the Retina display is tweaked very high, but knocking down the resolution is easy. Note: Display resolution changes can only be done after the OS has been installed. I was not able to adjust it while running from the Live image on my SD card.
Crossover is nice. It runs Neverwinter Nights well. I had not been able to run this game on Mac OS, even while remoting to a Windows desktop.
Steam sets up and runs well as well. I was able to stream Skyrim from Windows. The mouse was a little sensitive while in the game menu, but seemed to be fine once the game was launched.
The keyboard is a tad sensitive. Its easy to type multiple characters if you rest on a key too long.
Overall, a very polished distribution. I have some hesitation based on this distro's origin but I'll rely on the Open Source community for code reviews.

May be it's OK for some very basic users, but it is not for me.
Tried 15.4 then updated to 15.5. I do everyday use for almost 2 months as my workpc, faced some bugs and inconsistancies.
1. They tried to unify the UI and dialogs, but seems they still failing, in a lot of apps, I got different open/save dialogs and overall appearances, as DTK (their toolkit have some differences than most gnome/gtk apps with their CSD)
2. Language selector is global, and have no option to make it per app like the most desktops
3. Failed to install in UEFI when had to override the old OS
4. Have some bugs with the docker, app icons disappear randomly
5. Hot corners are very buggy, not triggered always, or triggered with lags
6. Window switcher is buggy and unfriendly, lacks from keyboard binding and drag&drop functionality
7. Poor theming, just some apps doesn't feel like home like InteliJ, Viber and etc.
8. No way to change lockscreen/shutdown wallpaper, so it differ from the desktop
Additional, I can't agree with the people saying it feel like macOS, I use macbook and macOS from years as my home computer, and the behaviour is far different.
1. Missing top-bar, global menu (which is understandable because the linux toolkit's nature)
2. Missing smart search (spootlight), yeah, there is albert, ulauncher, synapse but they are additional software
3. Window controls are right, and can't be set to left, even if set with gconf/dconf some of the apps are hardcoded to use right positions
Despite all of these points, I think it's good trending distro, have big potential, and I believe it will be improved with the time. May be for for users that only do some facebook, watching some movie and write some basic office stuff will be good choice, but is far from my needs.
Overall good distro with huge potential, go ahead I will monitor the future updates.

Français:
Enfin la blibliothèque de logiciels est à jour, et la police de caractère de l' interface système aussi...l' interface système très belle...seuls choses de positives.
Pour le reste :
-Libreoffice: même en installant "scorefonts" le rendu traitement de texte n'est pas beau, par rapport aux autres distributions Linux.
-L' utilitaire d' installation du driver graphique, est buggé, le driver NVIDIA pas à jour, impossible de télécharger, lorsque vous voulez l 'installer il faut le faire en manuel.
-Le système se met définitivement une fois à jour, après les mises à jours sont bloquées, même avec le "Deepin-tools".

Deepin OS 15.5 is super sleek and functional I really believe that this is the future of Linux coming from a Mac and Windows user. I find this distro good for users who just want to use something that works without any hassle or frustration of trying to get a linux distro to work. If Deepin keeps moving in this direction I plan on using this as my main OS and ditching Mac OS and Windows all together. It really feels like Mac OS and Windows joined together to make Deepin OS. If you are looking for a distro dont look further download and try Deepin OS now!

Awesome distro. Turns Linux into "Mac OSX".
Installer is kind of buggy- have done several installs and it is best to match hardware with this distro ahead of time (Lenovo T410 works very well!)
Had several ISO's that would not boot properly and also USB that would only run Live session.
Once it runs you get TONS of software from the "Shopping Cart" tab. Arduino IDE, Multiple JAVA IDEs. Microsoft Visual Studio is right there one click install.
I like the Open Office offering and it also includes Outlook Live as a one click install.
Any tools and software available to Ubuntu are there.
LOOKS AND WORKS VERY MUCH LIKE MAC OSX
This is a continuation of the Pearl Linux > Pear Linux (both defunct now) - theme.

Gorgeous interface with a number of home-made apps. Deepin has its own file manager, its own terminal, its own media player, its own store, its own desktop, its own repositories, its own settings manager, its own screen recorder, its own voice recorder, its own screenshot tool, its own cloud client, its own boot maker for ISOs, its own calendar, its own driver manager... the list goes on. It really is the most all-inclusive, home-brewed Linux distro for people who want things to "just work".
I have installed it on a few different types of devices, such as headless media boxes and laptops. Wi-Fi worked out of the box, and so did my laptop's soft keys for hardware control over things like Wi-Fi, mute, volume control, internet launcher, etc.
I've had no problem using the Deepin store to install my favorite apps such as Kodi, Blender, Ardour, Sound Juicer, Synaptic Package Manager, and Firefox. Apps such as Steam, Spotify, WPS Office, and Chrome come pre-installed.
Multiple desktops, beautiful included wallpapers, I just love this OS. I had been using Ubuntu for years, but I have completely wiped my laptops and they only have Deepin on them now, so I am a full-time Deepin user. I only took off one point from the DistroWatch Rating because currently, sometimes my Wi-Fi won't turn back on after closing my laptop lid, and I end up having to reboot. The admins of the Deepin community are looking into the issue, and if they can fix this, I can honestly say that this would be a completely bug-free, apology-free, no-nonsense system that I would recommend to techies and grandmas alike. It works great on old hardware as well. It uses far less resources than my previous distro, Ubuntu Gnome. I have an old XP era Compaq 8510p with a Duo Centrino and 2GB of RAM. I popped an SSD in the thing and this laptop is screaming fast. No problem streaming HD content or playing simple games.

most impressive linux distro so far (after years of trying lots of distros).
-Visually stunning
-starts with OSX like dock but can be changed to win10 like taskbar in 2 clicks, same goes for application list (springboard type of list or traditionally categorized or combined) so no matter if you came from windows or OSX, just change it to your liking.
-all the apps that you need for average usage (spotify, chrome, wps office without ads)
-Crossover included
much more...
