Title: Very good laptop
Review: I liked the that it's light and easy to transport around with me as well as the large-keyed keyboard with its multiple ports, which are very convenient and make it very user-friendly.The price was right as well. Great laptop. Love it!

Title: Update is slow computer is fine
Review: Made the purchase to learn coding and start online college and based off plugging it in and sitting at the library my experience is that is will be entirely too slow to be able to handle anything I need it to. For something refurbished it is of excellent quality not a single scratch on the device all the keys work. I sure hope this thing isnât a dud like all the other one star reviews say that this thing crashes and burns after 9 m to 1 year. If so this computer shouldnât even be marketed. Downloaded python app fairly easily so I have high hopes.

Title: Pretty good, But with a few problems.
Review: To be honest, its not the best laptop for 250$,But not terrible either. Memory is good for most things, like work, but not for gaming. Great work computer. But not great gaming pc. It looks pretty cool, but it gets warm and has a bad cpu. Not for gaming, but if optimized it can run minecraft at 60 to 150 fps which I count as a win very light, Not fast, decent solid color, but you can probably get a better one.

Title: HP does not honor warranty
Review: I thought this was just the right PC for us. We don't need much, web browsing, some gaming, some MS Office work. Yesterday I saw that the laptop OS needed update so started it. Noticed it was taking some time so I just let it do its thing all day. Went to turn the laptop back on that evening, and got a flash from the monitor but nothing else. I knew it wasn't a power issue because the separate mouse (not included) was lit, indicating it was connected. Tried everything I could think of then went to HP website. HP tells me there's 15 days left on the warranty ("whew!") and gave me repair options (phone, chat, local warranty provider [Best Buy]). I chose to go to Best Buy. They worked on the laptop for about 25 minutes, and while I can't tell exactly what was done, I do know it was a series of keystrokes and a flash drive. Geek Squad hands the laptop back to me and tells me it's a hardware issue and not worth the cost of repair. I take the laptop back home and get in a chat with technical support. They have me do what appears to be the same steps Geek Squad did. Then they tell me I need an empty flash drive to reset/reinstall the BIOS. Now I'm not really that tech savvy, but I know enough to tell the technician that all the steps that they have had me do I already had done by Geek Squad, their authorized repair center. Tech tells me that without doing that last step with the empty flash drive they cannot determine that it is truly a hardware issue (really??!) and that they won't be able to give me a repair/replacement if I don't take that last step.Sorry, HP, but you cannot convince me that the cost of a replacement laptop is worth more than the bad taste in my mouth, and my withering review (not only on Amazon, but to anyone who asks) of your inability to honor your very limited warranty. I can't imagine why you wouldn't send a replacement of a low-end laptop just to keep positive goodwill towards your customers. And it's why I strongly suggest anyone reading this review to search for a different unit.

Title: Pretty Good
Review: Definitely a slower processor, but is good for the price. Great for students, and if you want to make some room maybe for a basic game or more RAM just remember they preinstall A LOT of apps. Just go to the list in settings and remove which ones you wonât use. Great Performance for needs, I love the compact size, durability I mean it is a laptop so a few drops are okay but still be careful. Good comfort level. Fits in my lap easy and light. Only issue for me is fingerprints show EVERYWHERE. Even if your hands are clean just the oil from your skin. Easy to wipe off it is just a pet peeve of mine

Title: S Mode
Review: This laptop comes in something called S Mode. The specs on Amazon did not say this. Basically what that means is you are unable to download anything that is not in the Microsoft store. Nothing, not even Google Chrome. So after hours of research I was able to jailbreak the thing. Theres a button in settings to click to turn S Mode off, but conveniently that button does not work. It says something along the lines of unable to turn off S Mode, try again later. After watching numerous YouTube videos I was able to turn it off by disabling safe boot. The laptop itself came on time and packaged safely and works well.Edit: here I am months later and I really regret this purchase. I wish I had done better research. Its not the fault of the seller that this computer is slow, crashes, and windows 11 apparently thinks people should not be able to control their own devices. You are unable to enter windows defender to turn off real time anti-virus which sucks up so much of your ram its ridiculous. I have been looking for a fix for a month. Lesson learned.
