Customers are saying

Customers have good things to say about the 17.3" laptop's large screen size, ease of use, and performance. Many appreciate its reasonable price and the ample RAM and storage it offers. However, some customers note that the battery life could be improved, and a few have experienced issues with the hard drive. Overall, the positive feedback on key features outweighs the negative comments.

    Perfect laptop for an executive person but size and weight were just too much.

    The first one I ordered right out of the package had pixel problems so I took it back. Two weeks into the second one same thing has happened. Love the computer and its features but worried about the longevity of the screen.

    The LCD failed within 2.5 months. Had to use an external monitor to complete my work. However, Geek Squad fixed and turned around the unit faster than HP would have done. Thank you Zak.

    Operates too slow! Windows 10 uses way too much data. If you are on a limited data plan, choose something better. My old laptop operates on 64-bit and out performs this computer.

    This laptop fell apart. Only had the laptop for 4 months.The frame came off and that is not the worst. Dealing with customer service. Is just horrible.You have to find their number first. Then you are on the phone forever. They were supposed to send me a box for repair because you have a one-year warranty. I am still waiting. I tried GEEK Squad first because I have their warranty also. IF YOU DO NOT LIVE NEAR A BEST BUY. THEY WILL COME OUT FOR A FEE OF ABOUT 50.00. THAT IS NOT COVERED IN THE WARRANTY.

    After entering personal info and running setup, laptop screen turned white and then died. Have blinking caps lock light and fan spinning up and down noise. This is the 2nd HP laptop to do this in the last few years. Last time it was system board replacement. Going back to store tomorrow.

    I might be Capt. Obvious here but the graphics are sad. Can't keep up. Started acting up almost immediately shutting down. Finally, a couple days ago it just shut down and wouldn't boot up. I got an error message saying 'inactive boot driver'. I've had PCMatic on it since day one. Had to reset this waste of my money. It's almost entirely useless. Can't even run a basic PC game like League of Legends smoothly.

    Strong but Basic Value

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    This HP offers a 17.3-inch screen, plenty of fast RAM, an i5 processor, and lots of storage. What it lacks, however, is a friendly keyboard. For example, the only light is that on the Caps Lock key. There is neither one for the Num Lock key nor one to indicate processing. The tactile feel is definitely a step down from my 2007 Toshiba Satellite which exuded quality; the difference between the two is almost that of night and day. The "feel" aside, this HP excels in performance, and it is well worth the purchase price.
