I have had it for a week. It took over a week before it shipped. Had to contact FedEx to ship it as it sat at a hub for a few days. The screen is blinking when i wiggle it, may haver to send it back but nnot sure yet. No where to plug in device from camera to look at pictures. No cd drive.
I opened it up and was very impressed at how intuitive it was. Very easy to follow and set up so it was ready to use. The broad selection of features the work seamlessly together was unexpected but welcome.
These EliteBook 850's are just what we needed to replace out-of-date hardware. They are modern looking with a sleek style that our COO loves. It's light and well built and we only received the software that we needed loaded on the system. No JUNK! The SSD is extremely fast and provides the data availability we needed for our hardcore systems users. The Intel 7 core processor rocks. This machine will last a long time and we are happy with the purchase.
The esthetics are great on this laptop - awesome screen size/touch/bright and love the raised keys on the keyboard. However, the G7 camera, which has the same specs as our 850 G5 and G6's is horrible! Blurry Blurry Blurry - We've even rolled back the drivers to a default Microsoft driver ( a little better ) but the the "SunPlus / Luxvision" drivers and software would keep me from recommending this laptop to anyone - especially in our new Virtual Meeting world!
Updated the Bios to no-avail.. Could this be a hardware issue / Out of the Box??
For work I have been using the G5 version and I was so impressed with the light weight and just ease with the system works. That I went looking for the upgrade and found this beast that is a beauty. From form factor to style and USEFUL ports this is everything and more I had wanted from this laptop.
