Switching out of S mode in Windows 11
Windows 11 in S mode is designed for security and performance, exclusively running apps from the Microsoft Store. If you want to install an app that isn't available in the Microsoft Store, you'll need to switch out of S mode

1. On your PC running Windows 11 in S mode, open Settings > System > Activation.

2. In the Switch to Windows 11 Pro section, select Go to the Store. (If you also see an "Upgrade your edition of Windows" section, be careful not to click the "Go to the Store" link that appears there.)

3. On the Switch out of S mode (or similar) page that appears in the Microsoft Store, select the Get button. After you see a confirmation message on the page, you'll be able to install apps from outside of the Microsoft Store.

Title: Obsolete, not a power house, but great for the money
Review: This is the second one I've bought. The first was to donate for our local kid STEM Lego League group. I liked it so much I got another one for me to use in meetings. I gave up on laptops some time ago, no meetings, using a real PC for sw development. But, ever increasing meetings, so this is the perfect solution.It isn't any speed demon, it uses an obsolete Intel Celerion N series processor, has no way to add more internal storage other than the 64G eMMC. But, with 16G of memory, it is actually surprisingly responsive. It's still supported by HP, it's brand new, just discontinued. I don't love the small screen, but it is a 14" screen, so I'll live with it. Comes with Win 11 and surprisingly it's quite responsive running it. Do be aware that it ships with the idiotic S mode Win 11 that locks you to the MS store and such. But, other reviews notwithstanding, follow the unlock directions, no issue at all going to full W 11. It doesn't even have too much of the usual preloaded bloatware. The usual McAfee trash, a bunch of HP 'tools', and a lot of the usual MS garbage. It does come with Office, if you care. I only need Excel, so this is a slight benefit. For $250, this is a no-brainer if you just need something portable for email, spreadsheets, etc.

Title: Effective
Review: I am writing this review from this very laptop. I've mostly used HP for their product quality, and this laptop was no different. It is affordable and works great at home, in class, and during work. It has good storage and a nice SD card slot for additional external storage. It has a surprisingly great battery life during its most efficient optimization mode. The free year subscription to Microsoft 365 also helps me as a college student, giving me access to multiple features that are also useful for work. The SD card included was also a nice touch, offering more storage for my laptop that is transferable to any other device. The camera and microphone quality is perfect for this laptop, as well. I strongly recommend this laptop to college students and remote workers.

Title: 10/10
Review: I recently purchased the HP Newest 14" Ultralight Laptop and let me tell you, it has been an absolute game-changer for both my student life and my business needs. As someone who is always on the go, I needed a reliable laptop that could keep up with my busy schedule, and this laptop has exceeded all of my expectations.Let's start with the design - this laptop is sleek, lightweight, and portable, making it perfect for carrying around campus or taking to meetings. The 14" screen is the perfect size for both work and play, and the Intel Quad-Core N4120 processor ensures that everything runs smoothly and quickly. The 8GB of RAM and 192GB of storage (64GB eMMC + 128GB Micro SD) provide more than enough space for all of my files, photos, and videos.One of my favorite features of this laptop is the 1 Year Office 365 subscription that comes included. Having access to all of the Microsoft Office programs has made it so much easier for me to stay organized and productive. The webcam is great for virtual meetings, and the HDMI, WiFi, and USB-A ports make it easy to connect to external devices and accessories.But what truly sets this laptop apart is its incredible value for the price. I was a bit hesitant at first because of how affordable it is, but I can confidently say that this laptop is worth every penny. The performance and quality are on par with laptops that cost twice as much, and I couldn't be happier with my purchase.In conclusion, if you're a student or a business professional in need of a reliable, efficient, and affordable laptop, with amazing battery life, look no further than the HP Newest 14" Ultralight Laptop. It's a 5-star product that will truly make your life easier and more enjoyable. Trust me, you won't be disappointed!.

Title: Great value, love the simplistic design
Review: Very simple and functional yet it has all of the essentials without any of the gimmicky frills. Maybe it takes a $300 laptop so I don't have to deal with built in Alexa-enabled something, HP-specific ports, fingerprint scanner, and other stuff I don't want or need. They don't try anything fancy with this one which for me is a positive. Plus it's TKL keyboard which really should be the new norm. Does not have a backlit keyboard which is a slight miss but for the price it's not a huge deal.You can take it out of S-mode easily and remove a lot of the addons and you have yourself a perfectly functional Windows machine. Despite the lower-tier hardware it still starts up very quickly if you make sure you don't have too much bloatware. Sure it's a little slow at times but if you're using it for day to day tasks it should be fine. Battery life seems very good, the laptop is also fairly lightweight as well. What more could you ask for at this price point.

Title: Subpar for screen and SD sent is not compatible
Review: This device seems to be OK. It’s a little slow. I managed to get it late last night and immediately tried to set it up. However, they do advertise that they send you a SD card with 128 gigs. It does not say that the SD card varies and they advertise a manta SD card. However, they sent me a superior pro And it sticks out about 2 mm so one of the things I advertise is the fact that they give you more storage with this SD card. I cannot use this laptop until I receive the actual SD card that’s compatible and not sticking out to millimeters and not even being read by the HP. so I technically have no extra storage because of all the updates and everything that are done prior to them sending the laptop I only have 22.5 GB available out of 57.3. I am hoping that they send the correct SD card so that way I have maximum storage as the card that they should have sent seems to be compatible with the card that they did send that I Unfortunately, cannot use. The screen quality the display is also a bit dated but for the price it’ll work for now as long as I get the proper SD card.

Title: Laptop
Review: The laptop was easy to setup. It's lightweight and sleek. Runs great. The screen size is perfect for me. The battery life is pretty long, I went two days of using without having to charge it. Don't even hear it running.
