Thoughtfully Crafted: Get things done with a peace of mind, the HP 17 Laptop PC is designed with ocean-bound plastic.

Power Through: Multitasking feels easy and fast with the performance of an Intel processor, powerful graphics, and speedy Wi-Fi technology. Store more of what you love with a lot of storage. Breathe Easy: Everyday computing made easy, with comfort features like HP Fast Charge and a big click pad, this laptop let's you do you.
A: Everybody's answers are good ones. I myself am closing in on 70 and fullly sympathize, so I would like to add another couple of possibilities: 1) You can buy an external keyboard; this is usually white letters and numbers on a black background, so more conventionally easy to read, but can also be purchased with backlighting, but is more troublesome to carry around. 2) Another option is a USB LED light. I don't know if Best Buy has these, but they are available elsewhere if need be, and work well. They attach to the laptop port (or a hub, if you prefer) and are flexible, like a gooseneck lamp. LED lamps means they are long lasting and use little battery , while producing little heat.
Q: how many ports in this laptop
A: This laptop has the following ports: 1 SuperSpeed USB Type-C® 5Gbps signaling rate, 2 SuperSpeed USB Type-A 5Gbps signaling rate, 1 Headphone/microphone combo, 1 AC Smart pin and 1 HDMI 1.4b.

A: It's probably the HP anti-glare screen. It minimizes reflections, but the clarity is slightly diminished.
Q: What would be the cost with 16 gig instead of 8
A: The computer comes configured with 8 gigabytes, so you'd need to replace the 8 gigabytes with 16 gigabytes. Please contact the Geek Squad at your local Best Buy for a quote on the price of the RAM and having it installed.
Q: How do I connect the laptop to my HP OfficeJet 3833 printer, which has Wi-Fi?

Q: Is there any photo editing capabilities on this laptop?

Q: Can the internal m.2 SSD be upgraded or is there a 2nd m.2 slot?
A: There is not a second m.2 slot, but you can replace the existing drive with a drive that has more capacity. You can also purchase a cable and a 2.5 inch sata hard drive if you want a second drive. The cable p/n is M75893-001.
