Short answer: Not usable.
Long answer:
As a rule of thumb, never trust AliExpress product descriptions.
You have to always look up _specifications_ on Intel official website or 
websites of other vendors.Seller claims this device has N100 CPU [1], 
but in Characteristics section it is actually J4115 [2].
So which is it?
Display resolution 1280*800 means it couldn't be used comfortably by 
today's UI standards and is not significantly better than screen of your 
smartphone.
Notice how none of the reviewers made a photo or screenshot of actual 
hardware specifications detected by OS. More reasons to not trust device 
descriptions or reviews.
There is not a single actual photo of the product, in the description 
section, only 3D modeled edited pictures.
When order is disputed, AliExpress arbitration service will consider 
Characteristics as primary source for specifications, so it will be 
customer's fault in the end and refund could be denied.
In conclusion: It is a *very* overpriced toy, not a device you could 
accomplish any complex work.

If I was in the market for a new "work horse" laptop, I'd search for one 
with at least 14" screen size, with display height resolution of 1080p 
or more.
