The response time is very slow. I have a laptop from 5 years ago where I can get an instant response when I click on something. This new one lags terribly. The volume is also really low. I'm going to have to buy a set of speakers to hear whatever I listen to/watch.
My wife has a Mac book, but I need a windows based computer. The price was great. Didn’t know anything about AMD. So far I’m pleased. I upgraded to 256gb storage. I didn’t see an upgrade for a back lit keyboard, definitely would have gone that way also. Still getting used to it though, but so far I’m very happy.
Explorer was slow and basically did not work do I down loaded chrome and now the pc runs well. Also the auto cloud was not what I wanted and when setting up the pc for the first time it loaded lots of junk I was trying to get away from getting a new pc. Then trying to disable the cloud function is difficult and lastly now I haven’t been able to delete the junk files that were sent to the cloud. All making me unhappy with lots left to do change over to the new pc. Oh then you will need to buy an expensive cord to use the USB-C connection. Actually I need to buy three, one to download from my phone. One for the internet. One for usb to usbc
PC arrived with everything my student needed and much more.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This laptop has exceeded my expectations. The speed, the battery life, and how easy it is to add attachments make this a nice PC replacement. Setup time including the transfer of material off the old laptop took me 20 minutes. The AMD Ryzen 5 chip has as much speed as my older I7 chip, which was a surprise. Pages are opening fast, my Office 365 apps open without any lags, and the battery life seems to last forever. I had surgery and I was able to use this pc for a few days without recharging it. Two updates were sent by HP, and they updated without any errors. Super impressed by the current results.

Power Punch for the Price

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The laptop is thin but a little bit on the heavy side. However, it is still very portable. The internet connectivity is stable and fast. The processing speed is great and allows for fast streaming and typing up papers a breeze. The sound qaulity of the speakers is good and works well when on a zoom call or streaming music. The wide screen makes watching moves possible and battery life is ok, laptop lasted about 4 hours before needing another charge. At this price point it is a pretty good buy as opposed to a netbook or chrome book.

Efficient entry level laptop for home and office u

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] HP 15.6 inch Laptop PC 15-fc0037wm was ready to set up and customizing was straightforward. Initial set up managed through your Microsoft account duplicates the settings and programs from my previous device. I still needed to add apps, extensions and other custom settings. Make sure to give yourself a couple hours to cycle through updates, install, etc. It is a solid processor for home and office use and decent graphics for limited online and gaming. I would have preferred to be able to update/double the RAM but the system isn't designed for expanding. The laptop does exactly what it is set up to do and does so efficiently and quickly for most home and office use.
