    Decent computer but not what I was needing it for, it's subpar for modern gaming at this point.

    Had it for about three weeks since my last laptop went out. So far so good. The graphics and sound are amazing for the price. Battery life is great for what I do. About 8 hours off the charge.

    I've had for about 10 weeks. Was happy for a great price on the laptop at $550. First day setting up, it would not connect to my network. I have zero connection issues with any device on my network, this laptop was the very first. Since then it has dealt with occasional connection issues. But the worst part is the lag that no brand new computer should have. A simple drag across the screen and the cursor lags a second or two, no exaggeration. Might be able to solve with a google and watching youtube to troubleshoot, but I just expect for something to work right out of the box. Very disappointed and am returning today.

    Pretty great laptop. The battery could’ve been ten times better and certain games aren’t playable which sucks.

    I don’t just write reviews when I’m upset. I also write reviews when I’m happy. I was already reluctant to buy this laptop because of the reviews, but didn’t want to spend too much for a laptop for a kid. Welp, 5 months after purchase I send them my laptop under a warranty claim , or so I thought. They later responded that there it wasn’t covered under warranty and sent me some pictures of alleged liquid on the machine. That is impossible. My child only uses the laptop when I’m around and he only uses it in one place. There has Never been any liquid on that machine aa he knows that is not allowed. He also doesn’t even have the passcode to login. That’s when, to my horror, realized there were countless reports of HP alleging water damage, when people swore that was impossible. I am flabbergasted. If I had water damage on it, I would be more than happy to pay to fix it, but this is ridiculous. Get this, the cost of the repair is literally more than I paid for the thing. How is that? I hope their laptops sales continue to decline until the end of time. They can’t even produce a video of the tech opening up the machine. It’s basically their word against mine. I wish I would have known to take pics before I sent it in. I should have just purchased a Mac. I usually don’t mess with those cheap companies, and now I’ve learned my lesson.

    I had to buy this laptop as my old one stopped working after many years. This laptop is not only better in most ways but was also cheaper with the out of box and deals.

    It was a solid gaming laptop, and the price was excellent. However, while playing Fortnite it randomly shut off and has never turned back on.

    Excellent starter gaming laptop, has enough ram to run a decent amount of games. Upgrading the ram and storage makes this already good gaming rig even better.

    The device is okay but poor specs within the device is not meant for any type of multi tasking. You’re either browsing or gaming not both. Computer would require a ram upgrade if possible unknown if the ram is soldered or not if it is soldered I would not recommend this pc but if it’s not soldered and upgrade able then it might be a okay device. Personal experience ran well when specifically only doing one task.
