    Love the functionality, had this since April, 2025 and so far everything has worked well. Primarily use it for school, but the gaming features are amazing. Only drawback is the SUPER short battery life, less the 2hrs if running a game (Fortnite, Marvel Rivals, etc). About 3-4hrs if doing homework!

    Pretty light weight for the screen size. Picture clarity is great. Battery life is a little low but that can probably be managed more. Great to bounce from school work to apex.

    Husband uses for work, not typical computer type work, cnc designs, plasma cutting and acrylic cutting/engraving. Laptop has been wonderful thus far. He also uses it for an occasional gaming session and it’s worked great in all aspects. Glad we were able to pick one up while still on sale!

    Good graphics and speed. Still getting used some of the quirks (i.e. hidden tool bar on the desktop) but some of that could be a Windows issue.

    I bought this computer for $850 on sale, I’m very good with computers so I knew I had to have this, I’ve been saving for a while and this can play all the games i need it to, including Fortnite, Roblox, Minecraft,etc.,etc., it’s performance is very good and can run every game smoothly with no lag spikes or low fps.

    Excellent computer it was an open box item it didn’t come with the power cord. I knew that when I purchased. Great item works as it should! Battery doesn’t last long but also the computer is very powerful.

    Couldn't have made a better investment. I was doubtful about HP laptops as I had a bad experience several years ago but decided to give it one more chance, and boy, wait it the right choice. It's been wonderful, I haven't had any problems at all, runs multiple programs smoothly and usually it doesn't get as hot as you'd expect.

    Laptop has been solid. Ended up swapping the ssd to a 4tb add and swapped the ram to 32gb. Runs everything without any issues. Only thing that could be better is the WiFi card

    Business laptop to a Gaming Laptop-Not impressed

    Have used HP and Lenovo business laptops for work and this is the first gaming laptop purchased. Overall, it is ok. Build quality is no where as good as business laptops I've used. In addition, I'm used to the Home, End, PgUP, PgDN, buttons being separate. On this laptop, you have to turn NUM lock off and use the corresponding keypad with that label.

    System is a welcome breath of technology and lets the games shine with ease. I did upgrade the memory but wanted a good cpu and gpu system. Very happy with the purchase and HP’s driver availability.

    I haven’t seen anywhere a better price than that offered by Best Buy for HP Victus laptop with Ryzen 7 processor, 16G RAM & RTX4070 graphic card combination. I bought it for less than $850. It has a small 500Gb SSD that can be swapped for 2T for an extra $120, which still with price under $1000 makes that gaming laptop a great value.

    The laptop emits a lot of heat, the games' speed, resolution and everything is great, but the amount of heat is too much, I know for a fact that these laptops are a microwave relevant. But didn't know these are actually relevant to restaurant style ovens. Returned the product.

    This laptop was exactly what I was looking for... a powerhouse that can handle the high quality gaming experiences I want to play. From VR to the newest FPS, it can run everything at the highest quality. DID NOT DISAPPOINT!

    Laptop is running great! Only issue I'm having is Bluetooth connectivity on start up but a quick restart fixes this. I will be contacting ho to see if this is a manufacturer error or a bad setting but over all loving the laptop so far!

    The laptop is like a powerhouse and according to it's price (i got it on sale), it's spec is something out of the world. Highly recommended for gamers and students who want to be the best in both worlds
