    Decent Laptop for the Price

    A pretty decent laptop is you're mainly just using a web browser. You can still download some applications and have some files/photos saved but it'll start to affect performance and speed as it does only have 4GB of space. I will say the battery life is pretty good, although I don't really use applications like I did on previous laptops so that may have something to do with it.

    A good simple HP laptop that does daily tasks well

    This my review of this HP Burst laptop. It is a great basic laptop. The out-of-box experience was really good, after a sign-in of my Microsoft account and a few Windows 11 updates, it was up and running with no issues. The performance is just ok, it is not a high performance laptop that you would play graphic intensive games on. This HP laptop will do all of your everyday basic computing needs. I had no problems with Facebook, X, Instagram, Gmail, Youtube, etc. The battery life was really good and would last longer with the battery saver mode that is available. The 4GB of memory isn't really enough nowadays and I did notice Windows 11 slowing down when having multiple tabs open in Edge, Chrome, or Brave. The 64GB of onboard storage is also on the small side. But, for what this laptop is being marketed towards, it will be fine and an external SSD are getting cheaper all the time. I really wish that HP would have decided to use the now standard USB C charger for this laptop instead of what it has. I was surprised to see the SD card slot on the side, it also has HDMI, 2 USB A ports, A USB C port, and a headphone port. The onboard Bluetooth worked well in my testing. The camera was good, but for some reason, it was not working with the Windows Hello feature. This is a good basic laptop that will do what most people need to do, just don't expect it to be a gaming laptop. I really like it and it will be travelling with me daily as it is lightweight and works well for what it is.

    You get what you pay for. Computer worked fine in the beginning, but slowly after the 3rd or fourth day it began to be slow and have software problems. It’s nice for school or document purposes but wouldn’t recommend for something long term. Battery life also dies down quicker than it charges.

    The screen lighting and text are super harsh on eyes even when you try to adjust it and not being able to look at the screen good just ruins the whole experience but battery life is decent and it will barely work if you like to download a lot of apps

    This little laptop is just perfect for the light use I wanted it for. Basic internet searching, e-mail, and running my Cricut Design Space App. I can even stream movies no problem. There isn't much room on the hard drive so I purchased an inexpensive sd card and use that as my storage.
