So far it seems good. I was not wanting to purchase one this big but needed this specific keyboard layout. I upgraded from the HP ENVY x360 but the 15" screen and do to needing the same keyboard layout, it appeared this was the only somewhat affordable option the 17" screen. While I like the bigger screen it is proving cumbersome to transport. The 2nd thing and MOST important is I HATE THE NEW CHARGER. It is very flimsy and feels like it will not last or be near as durable as the previous design. I would go back to the previous round charging port. I'm very concerned how I will keep this from braking. The charging port is why I'm giving this 4 stars at this point.
Graphics and speed are excellent. Backlight keyboard is handy. Not a lot of bloatware installed which is a plus. Not too happy about battery life so far.
It was very easy to set up. My son usually sets up my laptops. However, he told me I could do it. Keys are quiet and only need a light touch. Clear screen and requires a light touch. The i7 processor is fast. Superior to my i3. Browsed one evening and found this laptop with a great cost reduction. Highly recommend.
