    The computer does not even work. The wireless system worked for several days then said I needed a new part. Tried everything Hp said so a factory reset and now the computer won't even completely load the Windows software. Worst purchase ever made.

    Impossible to type without constant errors due to the mouse interference. I took it back to Best Buy and one of the Geek Squad tried to type and then said. "I've seen mouse interference (due to hand position ) but this is the worst.

    This laptop was a problem from Day 1 - Fortunately the hard drive crashed just before its 3 month anniversary, and Best Buy generously gave me credit toward a new laptop. Thank you Best Buy - No thank you to HP

    Worked Well at First

    I bought this as a bundle for $330. At the time, I didn't know as much about computers as I do now, and I regret it. For the first few months, the computer was very quick, but now that there are programs on it, it has become increasingly slower. For the price, I should have been expecting this. I will break my review down into what I like about it and what I don't. The Good: - The A6-5200 APU is powerful enough to run most older games on the max settings. I was even able (with some tweaking) max Minecraft out by turning the render distance down. Other games like Command and Conquer and Battlefield 1942 ran without a hitch on max settings. - I like the keyboard layout. The keys are spaced just right for anyone who likes to type; however, they are a bit mushy. - The notebook is very slim and attractive. It has a nice uniform matte finish on the outside and a shiny black finish on the inside. The shiny finish easily shows off hand and fingerprints. - Mine came with a 1 TB Hard Drive. That's an extremely good bargain for the price I paid if you ask me. - The laptop has been reliable in the sense that it hasn't had any actual hardware issues. The Bad: - Only 4 GB of Memory limits how much you can do on this computer. I can only run a few programs at a time before the RAM starts to fill up, so this computer is not for multitasking. - The computer came pre-installed with lots of bloatware, adware, spyware and other junk from the very beginning. This was annoying to go through and have to remove. I downloaded Malwarebytes and it said I had 97 "unwanted" (examples listed above) programs on my computer. Not only were these programs annoying, but they also hogged up a lot of system memory and disk usage, making the computer laggy. - If you have the choice to keep Windows 8.1 on the computer, keep it. I upgraded to 10 and the hardware on my laptop wasn't fully compatible. I had issues with my touchpad and media buttons. However, Windows 10 is a very nice OS, so I clean installed it onto my desktop. - For some reason the touchpad is either not sensitive enough or over sensitive. When I need it, it is barely responsive, but when I don't (when I'm typing) the pinch-to-zoom feature drives me nuts. I tried disabling it and the settings always revert back to default when the computer resets. - I have issues now with the computer being entirely unresponsive to key inputs when I log in, making me have to do a hard reset by holding down the power button. - RAM is not easily upgradeable Final Thoughts: The computer started out really great, but over time it didn't hold up so well. For the price I paid, it was definitely a good bargain. I guess I am just biased now towards it because I built a custom PC. Regardless, I have noticed it have more problems over time. In a heartbeat I would recommend this to anyone who won't be doing heavy workload applications and instead just be typing and web browsing; this is what the laptop is geared for. Excellent for a college student or older person who won't use it for much except to type and browse the web. If you are looking for a laptop that has power, look for something else.

    I am very displeased with the performance of this laptop.... Maybe it's Windows 10...maybe it's the internal components... All in all, a poor choice. I plan on returning this laptop.

    It is much to difficult to use. I have no idea how to get to anything. Instruction Manuel would be nice to have, without having to use a ream of paper to get it (the Manuel)
