Title: Great little laptop
Review: This seems to be a great little laptop for general web browsing, school work or even remote work. Good size screen, brightness is good. I had zero issues installing Google chrome, not sure why it was an issue for anyone else. When I first started it up it did take a little time to get going as it needed to install updates but once installed it seems to be fairly quick. Reading reviews its not great for gaming but that’s not an issue for me since I have no intention on using it for gaming. I’ll write a follow up in a few months but happy with this so far!

Title: Very nice
Review: I really like my new laptop. Can't believe how light it is and how easy it is to use. I was using Chromebooks for a long time, so it took me a while to get used to this. But I am very much enjoying it.Its very fast, screen us bright and touch screen is very easy.

Title: Wow, where are all the positive reviews coming from?!
Review: This is a shockingly terrible computer. The look and feel is extremely cheap. The thing felt incredibly flimsy, and the entire keyboard could be pushed in without much effort. Awkward feeling keyboard feel and layout too. The screen quality was awful. If you weren't looking at the exact perfect angle, the screen would appear faded out and the color would change. It has an extremely narrow range of viewing angles. I could never adjust my eyes to the color, and photos would look simply terrible. My Chromebook has vastly superior color rendering, and the screen looks good at a wide range of viewing angles. The resolution was purported to be 1080, but the pixels seemed very large and most things appeared "blocky". But the worst part of this computer was the performance. Unbelievably slow! Web pages would take forever to load, text would come in, and a bunch of white boxes would appear on screen until each image would load. It is not my connection either, as I ran this computer right next to my Chromebook, which had none of these loading problems. This computer was so slow that it would literally hang up while I was typing! I would start to type a sentence, and nothing would happen on screen, then a few seconds later, the words would start to show up. I closed everything but one web browser to compose an email, and I could not write simple text without the computer lagging behind. It was beyond terrible to the point I may have just gotten a lemon. But if this was not a broken machine, it's the worst computer I have ever used. Returned it less than a week after using, I was fed up!

Title: Good laptop, but had issues with getting Google Chrome on it.
Review: We bought these for school work. I've always loved HP and have bought several. However now you have to go through several steps to be able to get google on the HP laptops they are completely set up with Microsoft/edge only. A good bit of the school programs we have to use require google chrome and it was a bit of a task to get it downloaded during the setting up process. But other than this, these are very good durable laptops.

Title: After I took my laptop out of S mode. PERFECT!
Review: I love the way the laptop is so customizable. I can change almost anything on it. I deleted all Microsoft office apps because I use Google Which freed up some much needed space. The laptop came brand new and I enjoyed setup process. I am currently using this laptop with a cover on it to protect the color on it I’m looking to get a keyboard cover too. Great value, brand new, easy to set up

Title: Easy set up, sleek look!
Review: Arrived quickly, 2 days sooner than stated! Package well. Was going to wait to three weekend, but was feeling a little blue & bored so decided to set up. It took about 30 minutes total, which wasn't long since I wasn't doing anyting else. Three screen size is perfect, raised keys, and plenty of ports to connect my wireless mouse (My only issue is my issue - having long nails makes using the TouchPad difficult, hence needing a blue! Cord is long enough to plug up and reach a decent distance so you aren't sitting on the wall when charging! I LOVE the white housing, looks sleek and now I don't feel so blue!

Title: It's decent
Review: It's in just slow. No two ways about it. I am not a gamer, all I do is surf the web and sometimes order from Amazon. I can run 3 open windows, a fourth will freeze up. Probably needs more RAM but why should I have to add RAM to a new computer that I have had less than 90 days? Also short battery life, don't plan to do any work from your lunch break!

Title: Excellent for price.
Review: Thin and well finished. Typical excellent HP quality. 64 gig solid drive. Drives have gotten so big that 64 seems puny. Actually 64 gig is actually quite large for the average user. You can add space quire easily these days.I started with a TRS80 with 4 K of memory and! used audio cassets for storage. We have come a long way.

Review: Compre este equipo por la marca HP, la verdad es económico pero no significa que por eso tenga fallas, el equipo se apago cuando se actualizo a Windows 11 y solo parpadeaban unas teclas y no tiene porqué hacer eso, a los tres días de la compraLo regrese ya que me arriesgo a qué no llegue ni a los tres meses y no quiero que se vensa la garantíaAhora en adelante me dara desconfianza comprar en Amazon ya que no aparecen los malos comentarios de este equipo le tuve que buscar mucho para que aparecieranY vi que son demasiadas quejas.En cuanto a HP no se si vuelvo a comprar siempre había comprado esta marca, es la primera vez que me pasa esto.
