It's fast but the USB A doesn't work well. It seems to get interference from the USB C ports. The only way to get my wireless mouse/keyboard to work is to run a 6-foot USB A male/female extender so the Mini USB receiver is away from the laptop. If I had to do it again, I would look for a different brand.
Performance was great, but the additional software installed by HP created conflicts with our security systems and took a great deal to resolve. Making a simple solution more complicated than needed.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I purchased this laptop a few weeks ago and it shipped right away. It was easy to setup and get started. The performance of the laptop has been quite good and I'm very happy with my purchase.

No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Perfect size including alphanumeric keyboard. Backlight comes on as soon as you start typing then turns off automatically. Easy set up. Looking forward to years of use.
