    Do not buy, only had this a year and a half and it will not connect to the WiFi anymore. I have done internet resets, a master reset it still won't work. My internet connection is good, my other devices never skip a beat, I basically have this just to sit on a shelf.

    I will not recommend this laptop to anyone for purchasing. The only way the laptop would stay on, was it had to stay plugged in. I am not a computer person, but I thought all laptops now-a-days came with built in Wi-Fi. I purchased this laptop for my son to do his school work while out of school and I was really disappointed.

    If I could rate lower i would. Hp says my warranty is expired though I had just purchased it and it comes with a 1 year warranty. The computer stopped working. Hp couldn't fix it nor could geeksquad. So I got a bad laptop for my daughters schoolwork and no one will replace it!

    Overheats

    I discovered that this model does not have any fans or vents so it overheats. The bottom of the computer gets burning hot after a few minutes of casual use (surfing the web, checking email). I read that some HP models had exploding batteries due to overheating. Do not buy!!

    Horrible computer. Returned it two days after I got it. Very small and it kept on shutting down within the first five minutes of turning it on. Do not recommend in the slightest.

    laptop mouse freezes almost immediately after turning it on. I've reset it many time to factory setting and still mouse freezes. Not worth the prize. It's the worst laptop I've purchased so far.

    The only good thing about this item is its touch screen. No CD drive and does not support downloads. It works more like a phone. Sales person got over on me on this one.
