Play games all day with this 17-inch HP laptop. The Intel Core i5 processor and 8GB of DDR4 RAM allow for smooth playback and quick loading, and the 1TB hard drive stores a large collection of projects. This HP laptop has an HD+ display with 1.4 million pixels for sharp photos and graphics.
A: Yes, this is the same computer that will be on sale for $399. You should be able to get it both in store and online starting Thanksgiving evening.
Q: So now you've increased by price by $130? I'm sick of these games! Will buy elsewhere.
A: I ,too am shocked the price increased $130 after the customer service representative at the store told me it would be $399.99 all this week. So....is it going to be on sale on Black Thursday on-line? It could have been ordered for $399 this week, I was told by my store. But now the price is back up. Disappointing!
Q: Does this laptop have a CD/DVD writer?
A: Yes it does! :)
Q: specs say no webcam but HP support says yes in previous question---does it have a built in webcam?
A: We apologize for the discrepancy in information. Yes, this model has an integrated web camera.
Q: Is their capability to add a SSD with the current 1TB hard drive?
A: Yes, you can add an M.2 ssd.
A: You have to remove the rubber feet strip but be careful since it can easily break in to. There's 6 screws under the rubber pad that needs to be removed. Why the h does hp put screws under the rubber feet in the 1st place because after it's removed to add more memory or an ssd it never sticks on again. I would NEVER buy a laptop that doesn't have access panels to upgrade memory/ssd since it's a pita to remove the entire back just to perform an upgrade. It's easily damaged if you're not careful.
A: Hi, there! I am in the line same work and have found this laptop to be a good fit. The webcam seems a little dark on my end, but I have heard no complaints from my students. It is able to run multiple PDFs, Zoom, Skype, Chrome, and other programs simultaneously with seemingly no issue. Works great! Hope that helps!
A: The i5-7200U processor in this computer has a turbo speed of up to 3.10 GHz. Start up speed varies based on the components inside the computer and the software installed. An i5 processor paired with 8GB of RAM is an excellent configuration. Swapping out the Hard drive for a Solid state drive would provide a tremendous boost in initial load times.
