HP Envy x360 2-in-1 15.6" Touch-Screen Laptop - Intel Core i7 - 16GB Memory - 1TB Hard Drive - Silver

I replaced my pitiful ASUS with a new HP ENVY two months ago and I feel like I made an excellent decision. I had been a huge fan of HP's since the 1990's but when I got ready to purchase my previous ASUS laptop, I made mistake of listening to sales rep instead of my previous experience. Sales rep convinced that DELL and ASUS made much better laptops than HP and, thus, I purchased a DELL. It lasted 4 months and died. BestBuy replaced it with an ASUS and it ended up being worse than DELL. I am "gentle" with my computers/laptops and found myself amazed that keys on my ASUS would "fly off" when I was typing fast, the screen would pop loose when closing the lip on the laptop, screen developed blurred areas, touch screen quit working, hard drive speed slowed, hard drive failed, etc. After two years, I had enough and began my search for a new laptop. I researched every resource I could find. Most resources gave HP laptops very good reviews but gave ASUS and DELL better reviews. When I found most of these reviews were based on laboratory testing and not end user reviews, I then turned to the BestBuy review website and purchaser of the HP ENVY extremely happy with their HP ENVY laptops and a very high percentage stated they would buy their HP ENVY again and recommend to a friend. After reading these BestBuy reviews, I went to my local Columbia SC Spring Valley BestBuy to compare the different brands. I visited the Columbia, SC Spring Valley Store and got EXCELLENT service by the computer rep and even the store manager stepped in to assist me with excellent service. I found the HP laptops stood out when I compared them to the DELL, ASUS, SAMSUNG and LEVENO brands. Of course, I then had to pick a model. For the money, the ENVY model stood to be the best. Yes, it would have been great to have a solid state hard drive but I could add one if I found I needed one. However, when I got home the standard hard drive was excellent as was the key board, the display, sound quality, the speed, etc. I WOULD DEFINITELY PURCHASE AGAIN and RECOMMEND and in Columbia SC I recommend the Spring Valley Store. PROS: Speed, display, sound, key board response, case, hard drive size, battery life CONS: NO internal DVD drive, lack of USB ports (especially when one has to be used for external DVD drive)

I purchased 3 laptops over the last year, different sizes, different weights, different processors but was never contented. I am involved in animal disease risk mapping and use databases and spreadsheets as source of data (real time) and mapping software at the same time. This laptop is excellent for that. Not adding the 360 feature as a plus. Downside - keyboard back-light should have a low option in addition to on/off.

Bought this laptop after lots of research. I wanted something fast and functional, as I take online classes, and play around with video editing in my free time. We had some hiccups in the beginning with tablet mode and lagging internet, but did some digging and quickly resolved both problems. It's a beautiful laptop, and feels great to use. Highly recommend.

big screen. great for bad eyes. love the number keypad to the right. thin but not too light

I found this laptop to fulfill every spec every feature with a budget price really awesome.

I got this laptop and when I change the windows background color to solid black and go into a dark room then I realized white flares in the top edges of my screen . I returned it and got another one and I got same problem again. This only occurs when u are watching dark black desktop and u will never recognize it with any other color. I called HP and they are working on it .. they checked all hardware drivers and they could not resolve it .. I checked with a friend of mine who has same machine and he was shocked from the white flares even though he was using it for months. I attached a photo of what I am having and encourage everyone to test this .. HP rep said this should not happen but I think we are dealing screen defect on this model and hard to see. I discovered it while watching a movie aspect ratio 16x9 with black bars in a dark room.. waiting for HP response as they escalated my discovery !!!

It's a great computer except it comes with some annoying things.

I don't use this laptop everyday. Most times I'd use this laptop once a week. To my horror today I opened it and the display by left hinge popped right open with it as well. A screw fell right out and now I'm left in a predicament where I seemingly have to squeeze the display where the hinge is in order for it not to pry open when I use the laptop. Immensely disappointed because I don't use it enough for it to start falling apart 10 months after purchase.
