I've bought this laptop about a month ago for $500 off and it's been great. I wanted something for work and gaming that, crucially, does not look like a gaming laptop--this was precisely it. It handles the internet and a word processor with ease, the key bord is comfortable, and it's got a nice big screen. And it can play a game like Elden Ring with the graphics set to high--though it needs a cooling pad, which isn't surprising.
My only gripes are that the key lables on the keyboard can be hard to see when they aren't lit up and that the fan occasionally turns on when I'm not using the laptop--like, it'll start up in the middle of the night

HP 16” laptop

The laptop itself works fine and has no issues. It heats up relatively fast and it tends to overwork itself when running two programs at once, so it isn’t heavy on processing things. It’s fine if you just wanna run basic softwares. Games I tend to run on lowest graphics for it to run smoothly. Another issue I have is finding laptop accessories. I had to dig hard for a backpack that fits 16” laptops, hard to find any compatible laptop skins (haven’t yet lol), and is more on the heavier side.

This laptop has been an excellent purchase for both work and personal use. The performance is smooth and reliable—programs open quickly, multitasking is effortless, and it handles everything from office tasks to light editing without slowing down. The startup is fast, and Windows 11 runs beautifully on it, with a clean and modern interface.
The battery life is very impressive. I can get through a full day of work, streaming, and browsing without worrying about charging. It also charges quickly, which is a huge plus when I’m on the go.
The screen is bright, sharp, and vibrant, making movies and videos look amazing. The keyboard is comfortable to type on, and the trackpad is responsive and accurate. The overall build quality feels premium yet lightweight, which makes it easy to carry around for classes, travel, or work meetings.
Another highlight is how quiet it runs, even when handling multiple applications at once. No distracting fan noise, just smooth performance.
Overall, this laptop offers excellent value for the price. It’s stylish, portable, and powerful enough to handle daily tasks and more. I would definitely recommend it to students, professionals, or anyone looking for a dependable everyday laptop.

We could not be more satisfied with our purchase of the HP Envy 16" Wide Ultra XGA Touch-Screen laptop computer with the Intel Core i7 processor. The first thing we noticed about the laptop aside from its overall great appearance was its weight. The computer it replaced was an all composite one the just seemed "flimsy." Not so with the new laptop, it just feels solid. In terms of functionality and performance, it punches well above its weight. It is blazingly fast for a computer at this price point. Great graphics, responsive touch screen and clearly defined controls are just a few of its attributes. It came loaded with Windows 11 which gave us pause, but I must say we were pleasantly surprised how quickly we adjusted to using Windows 11. All in all a great computer for the price. As for the purchasing experience, Best Buy did not have one in stock at the store so we ordered it and paid for it in the store - a seamless process. The computer was delivered in perfect condition and when promised with ample shipping updates provided during the shipping process.

Highly recommend for anyone looking for a reliable laptop at a good price

Purchased this device May 2023. LOVE it. What can I say...good build quality (almost as good as Apple hardware). Touch screen (a little bit too glossy). Upgradable RAM slots, two hard drive connectors...4060 GPU running 90w (which is unique considering this isn't a gaming laptop)... Device is a bit heavy..but it's solid.

Great laptop! So far it does everything I need it to do and way faster than my old HP. The screen is a good size, great image, easy to read. I use it for work, making changes on drawings etc. My old computer was getting very slow when trying to multitask. This one I have had no issues. Price was right also.

I recently purchased the HP Envy 16” Touch-Screen Laptop. With an Intel Core i7, 16GB memory, and NVIDIA RTX 4060, it delivers excellent performance. The 1TB SSD offers ample storage. The design is sleek, but it tends to heat up during intensive tasks. Overall, a great investment for high performance and style.

Great product with satisfactory specifications and hardware! It is useful for my engineering work, research, and some games! It has high performance. The only problem is that it is a little bit heavy! Regarding its specifications like the high-performance CPU, its battery life is good. I like the 120 Hz display and its touch-screen.

I had previously been using an Omen 16 with almost identical specs but traded it in for the Envy. The Envy beats the Omen by a long shot for my purposes.
I use this laptop mainly for productivity, 3D renderings, CAD, and occasional gaming.
Pros (VS the Omen)
- The keyboard and track pad feel a lot more crisp and responsive
- Aluminum body feels more sturdy than plastic and is easier to keep clean.
- The higher resolution glass touch screen seems more durable, easier to clean, and looks way more crisp. I didn't think I needed a touch screen but find myself using it frequently for scrolling.
- The facial recognition is incredibly convenient. I didn't realize the laptop had it when I bought it so that was a pleasant surprise.
- It doesn't have that "gamer" aesthetic so it looks more professional, which is a pro for me.
- The laptop is thinner overall.
Cons:
- The fan noise under load is louder than the Omen, but if you only game occasionally, it's not a big deal. If you're just doing light work it's not super audible.

You might find other reviews online showing that this is heavy...it is. But its a desktop replacement with a lot of value packed into it so its a fair tradeoff.
In this price range there was one other laptop (think it was an Asus). The problem is the other one looks like an Alienware knockoff and I wanted something that doesn't make me look like I live in my mom's basement. The other problem was the screen. The other one was ok...until you looked at the screen on the HP. It wasn't even close. The crispness and brightness of this screen outperforms everything in this price range. That coupled with identical graphics/processor and a bump up in storage made this a no brainer.
So yes, its a hefty boy that needs a diet. Yes the "speaker grills" next to the keyboard are about as useful as a rear view mirror in a hummer, but the computer as a whole is solid for this price point and better than anything else at this price point if a top end screen, maximum storage, and top notch specs (for this price point) are what you want.

This is a hidden gem. I paid $999 for this on sale. The best value for the buck. The screen is amazing and is advertised as a WUXGA but is actually a WQXGA (2560×1600), which is a significant upgrade. The RTX 4060 GPU is very powerful and should be plenty for everyone other than the very very serious gamers. The sound system is superb for a laptop. It is definitely heavy, but the build quality is solid and durable. Overall a very impressive deal.

This laptop runs incredibly fast and is very smooth to get everything set up. It has a very premium feel to it and it’s not too heavy to carry around. The specs make it great to run with games, and the cooling system makes it capable of handling these things well. I would recommend a cooling fan underneath though to keep temps under 50 degrees if you want extended longevity & don’t like the 70ish degrees while gaming.
Only complaint is the battery life which is decent, but I just wish it could’ve been a tad bit longer while gaming especially. It roughly lasts 6 hours while doing minimal tasks and around 3 hours gaming.
