Review for HP - 17.3” Full HD Laptop

I’ve been using my HP 17.3” Full HD Laptop for the past 2-3 months, and it has been an outstanding performer, especially as I pursue my IT course. As someone training to become an IT Technician, having reliable and fast technology is crucial, and this laptop delivers on all fronts.
One of the standout features is the large 17.3-inch Full HD display. While some may find the size a bit overwhelming compared to standard laptops, I find it perfect for multitasking. The spacious screen allows me to easily separate four different windows, making it incredibly efficient to work on multiple assignments simultaneously. The clarity and resolution are top-notch, providing a comfortable and immersive viewing experience whether I’m coding, running virtual machines, or simply typing up reports.
Performance-wise, the Intel Core i3 processor, paired with 8GB of memory, handles all the demanding software I need without breaking a sweat. Whether it’s running complex IT tools or handling large datasets, the speed and responsiveness are impressive. The 256GB SSD ensures quick boot times and fast access to my files, which is essential when working under tight deadlines.
The build quality is solid, and despite its larger size, it’s surprisingly portable and easy to carry around. The Natural Silver finish gives it a sleek and professional look, while the keyboard is comfortable for extended typing sessions. The trackpad is precise, which enhances overall usability.
Overall, I’m extremely satisfied with my purchase. This HP laptop has proven to be a reliable companion in my studies and has exceeded my expectations in terms of performance and functionality. If you’re looking for a powerful machine that can handle intensive tasks with ease, I highly recommend this model.

Got this laptop primarily for my fantastly football leagues as the browser option is better than on a phone, and also just for normal web research of news.
After 4 months, so far, the laptop has been great. Zippy enough too multitasking.
It doesnt last long unplugged if using it... maybe an hour to an hour and a half? Before needing to plug back in. That would be the only bad thing. But not a problem if you are always near power.
Clearance price of $150-180 is an absolute steal. But still think its worth the $320 - $350 it normally sits at, since that is still pretty cheap also for a laptop with a 17 inch monitor.
The big monitor at 17" is awesome and the reason I did it!

This laptop with Windows 11 has been a great addition to my workflow. The startup is super fast, the interface feels smooth, and multitasking is seamless. I especially like the sleek, lightweight design — it’s easy to carry and looks premium.
Battery life is decent and gets me through most of the day with regular use. The display is crisp, and the keyboard is comfortable for long typing sessions. Windows 11 has a modern look and some useful productivity features that make it feel like a real upgrade.
My only minor complaint is that the fan can get a little loud when running heavier tasks. Still, for the price and performance, it’s a great deal.
Would definitely recommend it for students, professionals, or anyone needing a reliable daily laptop!

The screen on this laptop is amazing! This is for my dad so the large screen was ideal. It was easy to set up with the monitor but we wanted him to be able to use it anywhere and still have the large screen. The laptop is large but thin and lightweight so it's easy to travel with.

I bought this computer for work as I work from home and it has been wonderful for what I have needed it for. I especially love how large the screen is as I tend to have multiple windows open at a time and it allows toggling pages much smoother.

Decent laptop but with lots of problem. The laptop was purchased in December 2024. I had ongoing issues with the laptop shutting down on me. At times, it was very slow. Recently the laptop stopped working and would not turn on. I brought to Best Buy , they told me I had to go to HP. It is still not working
