Budget laptop quick & functional. Windows 11 loaded up within 5-10 seconds.
Im happy w 17.3 screen & 27" curved screen which is sufficient to see music editing programs arranged between 2 screens & also good for stock trading.
Im disappointed i cant just add another 8gb stick to existing 8gb.
Laptop only has 1 channel memory slot so i have to ditch 8gb & get a 16b ddr4 stick.
Which costs more. I got the laptop at a discounted price so i have extra funds for upgrading.

I’ve been a loyal customer since 2017 and it’s been nothing but pure satisfaction. The word Bestbuy is synonymous to quality, reliability and peace of mind.

I had to replace an old hp laptop. It is just what I need. I am president of one organization and treasurer of another. I use it for reports, emails, and some online shopping.

The screen has great visuals, works fast enough for daily task and schoolwork. Lightweight and the battery last for a good 5 hours plus. Touchscreen is a great feature.

There are so many reasons why I love this laptop! The screen is large, so it's easy to use regularly. Streaming movies on it is comfortable from even a few feet away. The graphics are sharp, and it has a super-fast processing speed. It's relatively lightweight, and the battery holds a charge for a long time, allowing me to work on it without worrying about rushing to get to a power source. My daughter-in-law used mine one afternoon and immediately ordered one for herself.

I bought this computer to help ease the burden of an already hectic college workload, and it easily became one of my best purchases! It has high speed performance with unique features that allow me to work on multiple projects at once. I bought my computer online, and the process was simple and seamless. The estimated preparation time for pick up was an hour, but I received a text that it was ready in less than 15 minutes. The staff were very professional, personable, and polite. Fabulous job overall! If you need an affordable, college friendly helping hand, this is the way to go!

This is exactly the laptop that I am typing on right now. It is a Best Buy! This laptop is easy on my old eyes. My Envy that broke early would have cost more to fix than this laptop cost when it was at retail price! This is a good work laptop, not for gaming. The i3 processor and 8 GB RAM is easily enough power to run Windows 11.
What you won't see here is a praise over the Envy laptops, even the larger size ones, for a person who has ever worked in Inside Sales/Customer Service/Accounting/Sales Administration...this Laptop has a NUMBER PAD!!!
Seriously, I was a 3rd party HP Rep, and I was not fond of selling over-priced laptops to people.

For a laptop with a 17.3" screen and a numeric keypad on the keyboard, this model is an excellent value for the price. Positives include short time to boot-up, very good processing speed and several hours of battery life. One missing feature is a touch-screen, but that would likely increase the price, so that is a trade-off one needs to consider before buying this model.

The HP 17.3" HD is a very decent choice for everyday tasks like web browsing, streaming, and light office work. The large screen is quite comfortable for multitasking, and the Silver finish gives it a clean, modern look. The Intel Core i3 with 8GB of memory handles basic functions smoothly, and the 256GB SSD keeps start-up and loading times fast.
That said, the display resolution is only HD+, so it’s not as sharp as Full HD, especially on a screen this large. The Core i3 processor is fine for light use, but it struggles with more demanding applications or heavy multitasking. Overall, it’s a solid budget-friendly option for casual users, but not ideal if you need high performance or the best screen quality.

This laptop has a great screen. It runs really good. I have been using youtube and steam. Steam works good for older games. Ive tested gta 4 lower graphics and it works good. Also counter strike source and halo master chief collection on halo 1. Gog works good too for older games. I played re2 and re 3 ps1 versions. If you need a laptop for a basic games i recommend it. Also tested bioshock 1. Really loving this laptop for 2nd laptop.

I bought this HP 17.3" laptop for my mom, and it’s been a fantastic choice. The large HD+ display makes everything easier to see, whether she’s browsing the web, watching videos, or video chatting with family. The colors are clear, and the extra screen space is great for multitasking.
With the Intel Core i3 processor, 8GB of RAM, and a 256GB SSD, it starts up quickly and runs smoothly for all her everyday needs — from email to streaming. The full-size keyboard with numeric keypad is a big plus, especially for someone who prefers a comfortable, familiar typing experience.
It’s sturdy, has a clean Natural Silver finish, and the battery life easily lasts through her day. She’s happy, I’m happy, and it feels like a solid investment for years to come.
If you’re looking for a reliable, easy-to-use laptop for a parent or loved one, this HP is a great pick.

I was searching for the best possible new HP laptop with Windows 11 for my personal use now that support for Windows 10 is ending this month. I didn't think I could afford the luxury of a big screen since my priority with my limited budget was having decent storage and a faster micro processer. But then, by good research and even better luck, I happened upon this 17-inch HP laptop, formerly just under $600, for $355! Best birthday present to myself, ever!

HP - 17.3" HD+ Laptop - Intel Core i3 - 8GB Memory - 256GB SSD. I am finally back to an HP computer and very satisfied with the performance. The directions that came with this lap top made it easy to set it up and use. The size of the screen is 17.3" and gives a very good picture. Great purchase!

First I bought this laptop for use as a tool for meetings and internet searching and some spreadsheets. In general I wanted a large screen and not much else so...
For my purposes it is great the sound is acceptable for meetings and the large screen is sharp although the viewing angle is a bit critical for the full effect. I don't need speed and processor power so no issues there.
The only thing that I would like to have and this doesn't would be a backlite key board but I can live without is so overall for my application it works well.
