This is my third desktop from HP. My first one made it 10 years, my most recent one 9 years. Both were still working but it was time to upgrade each time. I did a high end Envy desktop as i figure this computer might now outlast me. I was also able to now set up a dual monitor system with my old monitor which itself is 9 years old.
I am underwhelmed. I am older and maybe not up on all the computer skills of a young person but there were no instructions, no start up CD's to load. I'm still trying to set up my personal preferences without a clue as to how. Also, I purchased a wireless keyboard and mouse, the sales rep. said nothing about the wired mouse and keyboard that came with my computer, so have I paid for both? Thanks, but no.
I finally upgraded and am so glad I did. I am able to browse faster, play games without latency and use buttons within websites without hesitation. I am very happy with my purchase!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The desktop is much faster than expected. It runs Davinchi Resolve almost 10 times faster than my i5 from 5 years ago. Having intel 10400 processor with Nvidia 4 gb card works well together. The SSD hardrive creates almost instant startup. Goodjob!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have had HP products for over 20 years and this new pc is another great example why. Very reliable products and they allow for lots of customization with your order.
I recently purchased this computer to replace my 6-year-old HP. I don't like being required to enter a pin or a password. I don't like the on button that is set too far into the computer. It should extend out beyond the face of the computer so that I don't have to stick my fingernail inside it to turn it on. I don't like that it has Microsoft Edge as the default browser, but that can be changed. I had a difficult time syncing my bluetooth speakers too.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I hadmy computer made to my spec's which were not all that extravagant. Computer is well built and attractive. Runs silently and works perfectly. Much faster than my laptop with about the same spec's.
