Purchased the HP Envy Smart Touch about 1 month ago, so I am still learning each day about the computer. I really like the keyboard, the beats audio is really great, and I like the touch screen. The complete look of the computer is awesome. At first I was a little unsure about the computer and asked my manager and a couple of other computer smart co workers and they all agreed that it is a really good computer. So yes, I think the computer is a great computer for anyone!

The touchpad IS infuriating. The wireless speeds ARE slow. The silver plastic, simulating aluminum, looks cheap. The hinges needed to be stronger so there's less flex when using the touchscreen. The lighted keyboard is nice, but perhaps TOO bright. USBs don't insert ALL the way in. For the money, it should have come with 8 gb. RAM, not just six gb. The FX chip and R7 may graphics MAY be enhancing game play as advertised, as all Steam games are playing with little to no lag. Without a comparison laptop, it's hard to know if the extra money spent on the FX upgrade is paying off. Perhaps I should have stayed with the on sale A10/Radeon 8560 version that was $129 cheaper. HOWEVER, customer service in the BestBuy store was EXCELLENT, so there's that.
