I love this laptop! On a scale of 1-10, I give it a 10!

Really looks as if this was an open-box laptop, when I ordered new. With letters nearly worn off a couple of keys, (Ctl, A, S, C...). Battery drops from 100% to 0% surprisingly quickly while browsing with Firefox and literally nothing else running at all. Laptop operates more slowly than any laptop I've ever owned including a 2010 Lenovo Thinkpad that had a ~1.7GHz Intel core i3 and 2GB of cheap DDR2 (running Windows 7, which I upgraded to Windows 10, and still ran for years better than this runs out of the box). Also came jam packed with every piece of "free" bloatware I meticulously unselected from the list when purchasing because I didn't want it installed or at least didn't want to have to uninstall it all myself. At least the display is okay... nothing special, but no dead pixels or clear signs of use. Attached photo of home keys, this is not what new keys look like out of the box on a new laptop, I have barely used this thing, and I wash my hands frequently and meticulously (I didn't make them look this way, I received it looking like this). The world is all messed up these days and I'm busy dealing with that. I wasn't going to review the laptop at all, just take the loss and move on... but you convinced me with the $400 gift card entry.

I bought as a gift for my mom. She absolutely loved it. Sorry I can't upload a photo of the item with the screen lit up since it's charging right now but here is a photo of what is looks like out of the box. This is a very good buy.

I bought this laptop brand new. The graphics are really good. I changed the sound in the settings It sounds even better now. It also has calibration for your headphones which is good for music production. It’s a nice large laptop.

It is a pretty decent laptop with functionality to effectively handle basic and heavy multitasking, everyday computing, have not tried running any high memory programs yet but overall still very good.

Nice laptop with 17” screen. Functioning well for what I purchased it for(printing, streaming, surfing). The battery is only 3-4 hours while in use. Only other hiccup is I assumed (yes I know) that the keys were back lit………, they are not.

Decent but a tad slower than expected. Overall you pay for what you get and is worth the price. Would probably get again but may compare to others at similar prices to see if the speed could be better. Also seems to die very quickly and not hold long battery life.

Wanted to love this computer, but after two months it showed a “no hard drive found” error. HP is fixing it under warranty, but the drive was fried and we lost all our data since it hadn’t synced. Hard to trust it now, especially after seeing others report the same issue.

Did store pickup, worked fine. After 2 weeks came home to a black screen and could not boot up . Hardly used it and put nothing on it. After trouble shooting with HP and best buy it still would not work. Lap top is under a warrenty but still best buy was charging 200$ to fix it and leave it with them for 4 days . I grabbed the laptop specifically for a training course im not at and im on the other side if the country so hands are tied. Just upset brand new laptop at that price stopped working so soon and the warrenty was no help and best buy charged 200$ to fix a laptop they sold me weeks prior . To send it back to hp would have been a month or two without it . Just a frustrating situation and feel like best buy is doing me dirty
