Impressive performance, great battery laptop, good display quality, decent keyboard, reliable, and still able to replace SSD, RAM, and battery rather than being all soldered and molded in like most new thin and light notebooks these days. The 15.6" display lets you keep the numpad on the keyboard whereas it's gone on 13" and 14" notebooks.
Just really great overall value on these AMD-based notebooks. Especially if you look out / wait for deals on ProBook 455's, you can get these priced in the same range as lower-quality consumer class models.
Also happy to see 16GB RAM laptops more common and less price hike over 8GB models. Same for SSD's where 512GB and even 1TB SSD models aren't obscene -- at least not on the ProBook 4xx range.
Since Microsoft provides no support for their products, I think HP should do so...somebody has to! I am tired of feeling like I need to go back to college to figure out how to set up Microsoft products. It is a nightmare that hardware manufacturers should not have to face...but somebody has to...
First this is the best computer I have ever purchased. You get 3 stars because I now have "error 30 printer not installed" message when I try to print a PDF AND I CANNOT FIX IT. I use this computer for business. If I had known I would never have purchased this computer.
Great laptop but with an unresolved issue with McAfee popups and PC App store

It was easy to jump into using this laptop from my old desktop with Windows 7. It is fast and efficient. I have one complaint. I chose to use a different virus protection from McAfee. I can't stop the McAfee popups from appearing. They have become a virus in themselves to me as they are totally annoying.
