Built to your needs / wants/ desires. HP is the only computer used in this home for many years! The only things (personally) that I would have liked or added to this particular model... would have been an internal disc reader / writer, and a SD slot. Being as I am an "ol' school kinda' person. This is our fourth HP laptop in the past decades.
Solid computer. Runs as expected. Wanted a middle of the road laptop for some gaming and some productivity things. Runs the games I play pretty well at normal settings.
This is a 4star review because the only caveat with this computer is the battery life. It really isn't so bad when you're browsing the web, but when you happen to be playing a game (of any kind) as expected it drains the battery- way faster than you would expect. I'm talking about you got an hour or so until you better get it plugged in and charging. Still happy with the laptop, would like a little more life out of this battery though.
The HP 17 Laptop PC 17-cn3097nr is a great unit. Powerful and efficient in the system configuration setup purchased. Super fast power-up. We love the Intel® Core™ i7, 16GB RAM, 256GB SSD, internal memory 1TB HDD, and beautiful full High Definition screen resolution FHD. We highly recommend this laptop, just make sure that you have apps ready to install, because this order has only the most core software.
With the cursor speed set all the way up, it STILL takes TWO swipes on the pad to move the cursor from one end to the other. Would not buy this model again.
