It's ok after power up. It actually takes longer than my (very) old Win10 to boot up, and sometimes I have to hit the power button several times before it does anything (which makes me very nervous that one day it won't start). But overall it works fine once it gets going.
My new HP OmniBook5 is perfect! I have owned numerous laptop computers over several decades, and this 16-inch-screen OmniBook5 is absolutely the best one. A few of the best features include the following: Backlit keyboard; NumPad that works with Windows as it should; emoji key; specially lighted keys for sound being off and power button location; easy typing on the keyboard; large letters, numbers, etc. on the keys; pop-up notification for NumLock on/off. I also like the fact that this laptop came with 32GB of RAM and a 2TB SSD and that it has the full complement of ports, including HDMI. The setup process was seamless and quick -- no glitches. Finally, the price: very low cost to this wonderful laptop computer. Overall, a wonderful product!
This is the fourt HP laptop and they have all been quite functional - primarily used for MS Office applications (sometimes multiple apps and multiple files at the same time - Excel, Word, Power Point & Outlook). Occasional simple games while waiting on the phone. One issue with this new OmniBook 5 - the 'Copilot' key position seems to have displaced the CNTRL key on the right and is positioned so that a 'miss' using the left arrow brings up Copilot - a pain.
Purchased laptop almost two months ago and still continue to have wifi connectivity issues. Device will not connect, or will disconnect from wifi, even when other devices in the immediate area do not. I already had one lengthy session with support, but issue has yet to be resolved. Also, Outlook software provided did not allow for easy transfer of data files from old to new laptop. Geek Squad was unsuccessful after trying for two hours, but I was eventually able to find someone with a complicated work-around that was moderately successful.
The laptop feels cheap, the after closing it and opening it for a month the screen edges leave a dirt print on the bottom part of the laptop. For some reason its hard to plug and unplugged a HDMI or the charging cord from its ports. The display changes colors all the time and its very uncomfortable, horrible white colors and not so vivid colors on the images. I can see light that may be cause by pressure on the display while urning on the laptop. In the software are I feel it has
So far, I am not loving this computer. It randomly freezes regularly and has to be turned off. The laptop also restarts randomly. I have adjusted the settings, and nothing seems to help.
We bought our HP laptop to do some work using the internet. The set up was easy!!! Very important for nontechy people. ;) a lot of questions popped up while setting up. Some I wasn’t sure of, could I go back later? Was it a one time thing? If not…. Where you find it again? It would be nice to make that clearer. Great screen size. I’m happy with it because I can do what I need to.
