Disappointed
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this for wife's Facebook use. FB news-feed videos would appear blurred out and wouldn't auto-play. Display would go black. Frequent blue screen crashes. Bought on black friday, gave to wife for Christmas, Best Buy wouldn't return - 15 day return policy. HP support was slow to unreachable and now is closed for COVID. Bought wife a 17.3" ACER Nitro 5 to replace this POS. I would not recommend this and don't know what to do with it.

Poor hinge design. Should be a class action suit.
||Posted . Owned for more than 2 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The laptop is very nice, all up until the hinge breaks away from the plastic frame. This is the second HP laptop that I have had this happen to. It always occurs right after the warranty expires. I will never buy HP again. This is coming from someone who has only bought HP for the last 15 years.

Good Computer - Poor webcam
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The computer is a good basic computer with a larger screen. The webcam is of low quality. The image is grainy. This is not the computer you want if you intend to do much online communication.

Waste of time!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I purchased a Certified Excellent Conditioned unit that was about $36.00 less than a new model of this same Laptop. I could not connect to my Spectrum WiFi during setup so I brought the unit to the Bestbuy Geek Squad. The guy there examined the unit and said that the keyboard letters were off. For example if you typed the letter “D” it might register as “M”. This tells me that whoever authorized that Laptop as Certified Excellent Condition unit did a lousy job. However, the return process for a refund went well.

Not worth the money. Buy Apple instead
||Posted . Owned for 11 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have had this laptop for less than a year and it has too many issues. From not connecting to WiFi, crashing, and much more. If I knew I was spending roughly $600 for something that was gonna break in less than a year, I would have just held my breath and bought a MacBook instead. I have had these issues happen consistently with every HP, DELL, and so on brand laptop I have ever bought and I will never sink more money into such a wasteful product again.

laptop sucks
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.i was told by 3 best buy employees if i switch to AMD from Intel to just surf web, no streaming movies or music it would be fine. Well I have ATT 100 mbps and all it does when I try to go to a website is buffer buffer buffer. So not happy I was misled that the AMD would run same as Intel to just surf. Thanks

Information shown differs rom what was received
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.In the information shown in Best Buy had an image that illustrated the laptop as a touch screen, but it really isn't. I made the purchase from El Salvador and discovered that the laptop does not have that functionality being in my country, which prevents me from being able to return it since the cost of shipping would be higher than the purchase made; I am very disappointed and I feel cheated

Pre loaded browser
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I don’t know how to get rid of the preloaded browser that was installed. I specifically asked if it had that and the salesperson told me no . I want that browser off of my computer so I can build the browser Of my choice . The ( E ) insignia used miss leads people to believe it is Internet explorer . I don’t like being deceived

Terrible laptop
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I am so sorry I bought this lap top! The camera is terrible in this time of Zoom. It’s very blurry. The display is horrible, extremely light on any setting. Geek Squad couldn’t solve these issues when I brought it in after a few weeks. I’m going to try to sell it so I can buy something else. Don’t buy this laptop!

mine was defective
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this as open-box and it arrived with a defective battery. The battery isn't charging and the HP Support diagnostic says it needs to be replaced. Will be returning this laptop. Other than the battery issue, it seems to be a good laptop.

Brand new computer randomly shuts off after a year
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Well, the computer decided to just randomly shut off three days after the year warranty. So, that’s not indicative of a good computer is it? Guess I have to try replacing the battery to see if that resolves. Otherwise, will need to look into a new computer which absolutely sucks.
