I needed a replacement for my 6-year old HP laptop and wanted something with Windows 11 so selected this model. Overall it is working well and transitioning from my old laptop to this one has been relatively easy. Things I don't like: the inability to have an onboard optical drive, that there are only two USB ports and where they are located, and the absence of an SD card reader (seriously?).
I have primarily used desk top computers , so buying my first laptop from HP was a giant step for me. I am Extremely happy with my laptop and the HP printer I purchased. My system is much More efficient than my previous dinosaur desktop and easier to maneuver than I initially thought . I a m so glad I went with HP
