HP - 17.3" Laptop - Intel Core i3 - 8GB Memory - 1TB HDD - Jet Black

Love it, I tried another brand before purchasing this laptop. It has a Disk drive plus lots of USB/card ports. The only reason why I did not rate it a 10 is because I would like it to have better graphics. This is my 3rd HP laptop and I will not try another brand again. I definitely recommend HP products.

I absolutely love it! My other laptop was on its last leg! AND I was having challenges seeing the print. Screen kind of small. I have to say I think the bigger screen is my favorite thing. This laptop fits my needs perfectly. I’m a student and web surfer!

It was difficult for this Senior to go from my desk top to a Laptop, but after a few weeks, I am getting the hang of it. Thank you to Geek Squad Matt for your help.

I am really happy with the purchase, HP really outdone themselves with this unit. It is perfect for basic use. It can handle HD contact very smoothly. I was able to watch 2160p YouTube video very good. The sound quality is very good and came with DVD drive and DVD software. The high resolution 1600x900 for screen. Webcam is 640x480, If you have basic needs this laptop will shine for you. Thank you Best Buy and HP for this awesome laptop.

So far so good, except for the whole Windows S thing. Is Windows S so great that I will regret removing it if I decide to do that? I don’t know the pluses of Windows S yet. The minuses are I could not install the version of Corel Draw I already fully own because it did not come from the Microsoft Store. Of course it didn’t - I bought it long ago and have the disk. I would have to remove Windows S in order to install any software not from the Microsoft store, purchase or free. As for the laptop, it is big, screen is 17.3”, so good for my old eyes. It has an optical drive (handy when malware disables all your USB ports because then you can move your stuff to a DVD before you reimage your laptop. This happened to me a few years back). It has 3 USB drives and a keypad. It would be heavy to carry on a plane but I doubt mine will ever leave the desk. A few days out it is still working. I’m making sure to create a new restore point before each piece of software I add. Tried to remove all the bloat ware but can’t get rid of some pieces of some apps. I will update my review if it starts crashing.

First, outstanding delivery service from Best Buy. I ordered on a Monday received the laptop next day at my house. Best Buys delivery time has been better than Amazon. The Laptop is perfect for what we were looking for. The graphics are not good but we bought the laptop specifically for the internet and email for those purposes and the price it is perfect. The only other issue is there is no light on the keyboard, but again our focus was price and just basic functions, for the functions we were looking for this laptop delivers.

I needed a computer that would run Office for our new business. I also wanted one that had a 10 key since I'm using it a lot for spreadsheets. I debated between a desktop and a laptop. This was the perfect compromise. It's big enough to work like a desktop, especially with the wireless mouse and keyboard I already had, but I can also close it and carry it home if I need to work after hours.

This is by no means a fast computer, but well-made and works fine for virtual meetings, internet browsing, etc. Very light for the size and nice to have a big screen. Does not get warm as some laptops do, which is nice. The video and sound quality is acceptable... not top end, but good for the price, and the large screen is great.
