The machine is GREAT, but the Windows 11 setup does not quite get up to sucks. Instead of just setting up a very good operating system, Microsoft forcibly installs their product line of Microsoft Outlook, Microsoft Edge and McAfee on to the setup. There are better apps and program out there, in my opinion, and dumping this merchandise onto the memory is a greedy move. Seems to me, a novice computer user should be able to choose to install only the operating system or to load all the Microsoft baggage.
This is my first HP. Now I understand why people buy them. This is turning out to be one beautiful machine and a great value to boot. Very happy with this purchase.
I have been very pleased so far with the laptop. It is a significant upgrade from my current computer and does what I need it to do. It is fast and the price was outstanding. Windows 11 is taking a little adjusting and the touchpad is different with a slight learning curve, but Google helped me figure that out. Overall, very pleased.
