This was perfect for college, I was using an older 17" HP and it was just way too bulky and really heavy. This laptop actually fits on the desks in lecture halls and the screen is really good I can actually see outside on it and even inside when the lecture lights are beaming straight onto the screen
I recently broke my laptop and bought this one to replace it and it’s better than what I had I love it, I do wish I was able to get a better color but it’s not a big deal
This computer is such a nice upgrade from my previous Hp Notebook (that was getting to be around 7 years old!). I did upgrade my computer have 512 GB of storage because I take a lot of pictures! I know if I would have stayed with the standard 256 GB that my storage would be all used up after transferring my documents and pictures from my other computer to this one. The upgraded storage is so nice to have! The speed is super nice, and it works great. Some issues I have with this laptop is that the fan is a little loud. I don't know if it's because it's overheating or what (yes, I do work with it in my lap, but it also becomes loud when working on a table with proper air flow), but it makes me a little nervous. Another thing that does irk me a little is that the battery life isn't that great. Sure, the battery lasts about 4-5 hours depending on what you're doing, which is great! But I'll have it all charged up and then shut it down and when I turn it back on my battery is already a quarter dead. I've looked online and this seems to be a common issue with fast boot up or something related to that, but I can't figure out how to fix it. I also bought the warranty for 3 years and am unable to install it on my computer, so that really bugs me. Apart from those issues, I have run into other small issues, but those are more my preferences than actual issues. I thought that the laptop was super easy to set up. Having already had an Hp product, it was super easy for me to just sign into my Microsoft account on my new computer and have all my web bookmarks transferred over. Overall, this is a good laptop for home users!
This laptop suits my needs. The only problem I have is the location of the speakers. They would be a lot better if placed on the top of laptop instead of being located on the bottom, which muffles the volume quite a bit. I have to use my anker portable speaker if I want to hear what I have playing on the laptop in another room. I don't believe, but I am not sure if the location was included in the specs I could have read before I made my decision to purchased this model laptop, Other than that I find this laptop suitable for my needs at the price. Backlit keyboard is another big plus for me as I use it a lot a night, For the price in my opinion, it is a great laptop.
