A:AnswerThank you for your question about this HP laptop! It is good for games such as Minecraft and Roblox. For games like the Sims, they would require a dedicated graphics card. HP offers the Victus gaming laptops in Best Buy stores. These are gaming laptops that are affordable and will play the more graphics-intensive games like The Sims 4.
A:AnswerAll laptops use a charger. This allows universal use of the unit, so long as your charger can convert your local current to the required one for the computer, and the output polarity is correct.
A:AnswerI believe it's the standard 1 year limited warranty on this item, but you can purchase an extended warranty for a fraction of the cost if interested.
A:Answerprobably. There is a quick reference pamphlet with computer outlining the various parts and connections and keys. But working Windows 11 was not part of it. I'm guessing it might not be part of the manual either ???
A:AnswerHello and thank you for your question. As system requirements for software constantly change, we are unable to answer questions about software compatibility or performance. What is compatible today may not be in the future. Please check the software manufacturer's website for the most current minimum and recommended requirements. We would also suggest speaking with your local Best Buy's Computer Associates for assistance finding the best laptop for your College needs, as they will be able to address any concerns and issues that we cannot on this Forum, due to the nature of Questions and Answers forums.
A:AnswerStephanie, thank you for your question about the differences in laptops and their pricing. Aside from components, features and physical construction of laptops influence the price. This model is made entirely from plastic while the shells in HP's premium laptops are made of metal. Metal construction is ideal for someone who moves around, like a student or someone who travels for work. Keyboard backlighting, touchscreen, and foldability also influence the price. At the component level, not all processors or components are made equal. Some current models may have the previous generation of processor and running DDR4 memory, which is slower than the current DDR5. If you have any questions about these, you can partner with a Best Buy sales associate and they will help you find a laptop that not only meets your needs now, but has feature-readiness and durability.
A:AnswerThank you for the question. Microsoft 365 (formerly Microsoft Office) is a separate purchase. Microsoft includes a free 30-day trial with the laptop, and you can subscribe easily for ongoing use.
