    Little but Super

    For a little computer it works pretty smooth. I code on it, but only simple limit stuff. Since it is on the lower end it does have limit space on that aspect. Meaning this product is not meant for people who produce content such as photography, videos, coding, among other activities that require lots of space to keep and install software and large files on your local computer. But I highly recommend it to individuals who want a small computer that is simple like a Chromebook but is not so web based and can get simple tasks done for light work (i.e documents, excel, research etc.) and web browsing. I love Microsoft Edge (being a Chrome user myself) it works nice. If you are on a budget, and need something simple and a Chromebook is just not something you want to buy, I highly recommend this product!

    Very user friendly laptop. The keypad lettering is decent sized. Its features are equal to Microsoft devices although it goes by their own name . It's not huge 11.5 inches. Perfect size for carting room to room or to work. I'm going to put this in writing. Get the 3 yrs warranty. At the store I declined. But when checking on the website and speaking to a representative it's a no brainer. It might actually runs a few dollars less than the store. All in it's under 65 dollars for 3 years. That is piece of mind.

    The image quality isn’t as great as some of the other laptops I’ve used but this is a great affordable alternative. It’s very lightweight and great if you need to transport it place to place.

    Normally I wouldn't buy an HP due to the fact that I usually have problems with them. This one was no exception the external speaker did not work. So now I am stuck with dealing with Best Buy and the Geek Squad to fix it. Since I bought 2 for my kids to use for distance learning the price was ok and it meets the needs just wish the one worked as expected.

    My job requires me to move around a lot so it's the perfect size if it's in my purse I can just grab it and go it also has an extended time for the battery so I don't have to always take my charger with me once I'm charged I'm ready to go

    We purchased the same color for each Granddaughter. The LapTops have been a learning curve because we have never owned a laptop until now. They are fast in switching from class to class and the camera is good for what it is doing in virtual school. The laptops should continue to perform very well when the school switches to the face to face school and the singular virtual classroom virtual class.
