[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] GREAT PRICE ... EASY TO USE ... I ALWAYS BUY HP ... FORGET THE REST WHEN YOU HAVE THE BEST ... PEACE ...
Meager RAM, smallish SSD, Smallish 1tb HDD, no blue USB ports so I don't know if any are USB3. Came with Windows 11 home which I suspect is why C++ redistributables can't be found or replaced, preventing some software from being installed.
It works fine. I asked a young man who runs audio visuals for our church to help me transfer my files from my old computer. I have > 6000 photos now on my Seagate external hard drive. That’s a lot better than letting them clog my c drive.
A very helpful Hp salesperson helped me choose this computer over the phone. It was easy to set up and so far, I am happy with it. I was surprised that this item came with a DVD writer as it is not listed in the specs.
The HP Pavilion works great, but the windows 11 should have never seen the light of day, it is not user friendly, not even close. I had to buy Microsoft 365 and that also should have never seen the light of day. It is just not good.
