    It's a basic laptop. Not the best for gaming or anything that requires a good graphics card. It's ideal for the college student who just started and is on a budget or just want something basic

    You can't beat the price for a new HP laptop. My son needed a new one for college. I searched many sites and products and am very happy with my choice.

    This was a great starter for my 10 year old to begin with. This allows her access to the things she needs and the progras she utilize for school projects.

    This computer is a good value for the money. Not as fast as others but it gets the job done. It is not my primary computer. I use it for bookkeeping.

    Competent computer

    I would not characterize the HP 15.6” laptop (Model: 15-BA009DX) as a high end computer, but it is certainly a competent computer suitable as a general machine for word processing and accessing e-mail, for example. The 500GB hard drive provides ample storage for pictures and the keyboard has a good feel to it. If this were my primary computer though, I might want to replace the hard drive with a solid state drive to improve boot speeds. It does not have much in the way of bells and whistles, but for the low price, you should not expect a fully decked out machine.

    Good laptop for the basics. Able to do everything i need it to do. Battery life isn't very good, but probably to be expected for the price.

    It is very easy to load programs. The only downside to purchasing a less expensive model is that the keys do not light up which I have been use to.

    I only purchase hp laptops and this one is great if your looking for a budget friendly but great laptop. I use it for internet and my daughter plays sims 4 on it a lot. I'm used to touch screen but I still love this one. Ordered online and picked up at Best Buy the same day

    Compared to my last computer, which had been giving me problems almost from the beginning, I am very happy with this product so far. It's only been a few weeks, but I have high hopes that it won't drain my pocketbook. Plus it's new, sleek and feels good when I type on it.
