    Does NOT work on my H.P. 4720s. The one they had under the counter worked fine. Bought the one they recommended. 100 bucks. Didn't work. Couldnt get my original one back. Disappeared in back somewhere. Don't trust the Geek Squad anymore.

    Don’t buy for high end gaming laptop

    I bought this because I lost my previous cord which was 200 watts. a 20 watt difference might not seem like a lot but it is. Every game I tried playing with this AC adapter I would encounter extreme fps drops. If you need another AC adapter don’t buy this one but instead go to your laptops manufacturers website and look for an exact replacement.

    “Universal” should be in air quotes. There are several tips, but none fit my laptop and my emergency trip to Best Buy to pick this up was a total waste. Still can’t charge my laptop and I’m out almost $100 plus the drive. Does NOT fit Asus q525u laptops.
