Perfect size for me with great picture quality on the screen. Boots up quick and runs all my tabs and apps smoothly. Only complaint is the battery life-- I'll be running only Spotify and Google Docs, with brightness and volume on low but still only get so many hours out of it. Not sure what's eating up the battery as it's still brand new and these aren't energy intensive apps as far as I'm aware. Lightweight and slim, it fits anywhere I take it which is impressive given how big of a screen size it is.
Set up process not quite as easy as it should be. I still can't get itunes to play through the headphone jack. It looks like I have to chose headphones or speakers when my prior HP's automatically detected headphones and matched volume controls to the device.
This purchase has not been easy one. The computer took almost 6 weeks to get to me and the set up has not worked yet. The battery won't charge so I have not even been able to use it. I'm not aa computer repair person but I did not expect to start out with a new computer that is suppose to be the top of the line and have all these problems. I can't even get it register to use the warrenty.
Laptop itself is a good product for a reasonable price. A major problem was preloaded One Drive which automatically forced cloud backups into a very small 5GB storage, which when full almost immediately caused problems opening many files. Many people do not want to put their data in the cloud, encrypted or not, as they do not trust its privacy, or else, do not want to pay for a forced upgrade to a larger storage.
I am very pleased with the general usage, fast and comfortable. However, when I set up my computer Microsoft took it over and I had problems with the one drive. I called HP support and was transferred several times, and much to my disappointment, no help was given.
Beautiful, well built, well equipped, and well priced machine. Set up and personalization went very smoothly. Very comfortable keyboard. Love the overall performance. But...Keeps interrupting my work "reminding" me to set up features I don't want/need. AI seems "opt out" rather than opt in. I'm still learning. Bottom line, very favorable experience so far.
