I have had this laptop for a few days now and have some preliminary thoughts to share. I am a very high end user who needs space and speed; I have to have 8 programs/apps ooen for just one of my assignments. I use Adobe products. And I have multiple monitors. PROS: Large, clear screen; fast speed; touch screen; webcam/microphone (privacy camera); nice dual speakers; love the # of ports (2 x Thunderbolt 4; 1 x HDMI 2.1; 3 x USB-A 3.2) the backlit keyboard (I really like the keyboard); nice battery life; Bluetooth, Wi-Fi connectivity; headphone jack; and lightweight. This laptop does NOT come with a CD/ROM (optical) drive, but an external drive can be purchased and attached.. CONS: It tends to get warm occasionally. It's not consistent and I would not let that be a deterrant, but I might use it with a cooling fan. The system is very MICROSOFT driven. (It does come with Microsoft 365, but I dont know if any of them do. I have a subscription, so I just transferred to this laptop from the old one. You can ourchase and pay monthly or yearly.) Those are really the only two issues I might have. This is a nice laptop with great capability and I'm looking forward to attaching to my docking station and using at my desk with a wireless mouse/keybaord! I would definitely consider if you are looking for a bew laptop. P.S. I dont game, so I cant speak to any of those capabilities, but I would think it's a decent gaming computer with the speed and clarity it offers.

This is my second HP. I love the 17” screen, Intel 7 processor, very fast, 1.1 TB storage, plenty of USB ports, and light. Love Windows 11, it finally allows me to use and monitor my IPhone. Best purchase!!

The HP Envy 17.3" laptop blends performance and style seamlessly. With a Core i7 processor, 16GB RAM, and a 1TB SSD, it's ready for any task. The vibrant touch-screen display, sleek design, and ample connectivity options make it a versatile and stylish choice for both work and play.

This is essentially the same model as my previous laptop which I've had for six years, or so. It still works, and this one with the larger screen, memory and SSD capacity promises to be an adequate replacement, especially since it was only $100 more than the one I bought six years ago. I'm happy to the extreme.
