So far so good! If you need a new laptop right now, I’d recommend it!
5/24/25Just UPDATEing to say: it’s been a month and I’m only more pleased with my purchase. Everything I said initially still applies, it’s zippy, it’s big in terms of hard drive space, it runs the games I want at max settings without lag or chugging. It really is everything I need and so far the only issues I’ve had have been Microsoft/Windows related, not hardware stuff (onedrive… freaking onedrive… ugh -_-).I have some further thoughts now that I’ve had this longer, and though they don’t change my personal review, I think it’s worth commenting on. First, this thing weighs a surprising amount for a laptop its size? My prior laptop was slightly *larger* and definitely weighs less. It doesn’t bother me, I don’t expect it to travel much further than my desk to my bed, my bedroom to the living room or kitchen, and occasionally by car to a friend’s place across town, but if you want to say, toss this into a backpack and haul it from class to class, or even travel with it, keep in mind, it’s kind of hefty.Second, I don’t understand the vendetta laptop makers have against providing usb connections, considering how many things require it. There’s only 2 standard usb ports, (and for me, one is dedicated to my mouse dongle, so effectively 1) and 1 small USB C one. USB hubs are relatively cheap, but it’s still another expense and external device to get and carry when it’s such a predictable need, this will never not annoy me.Third, yeah, the battery isn’t great. Obviously worse for gaming than if you’re just browsing online or working, but for it being a brand new battery on a brand new laptop, I was looking forward to being cord free all day and it definitely falls short of that. Again, for my purposes around the house, not really an issue, but if you’re looking for a college laptop, it’s something to think about. I wouldn’t expect this to last all day without bringing the charger.Fourth, a minor thing but something I’d forgotten about until I’d had this for nearly the whole month, but the keyboard *is* backlit. I feel like there might have been confusion about that, with the specs saying it is, but some reviews (or maybe it was a different laptop?) that said it’s not? It wasn’t on by default when I received it, my old laptop didn’t have a lit keyboard so it wasn’t something I’m used to, and I touchtype just fine, so I honestly just forgot it had been a thing I was looking forward to, but once I finally remembered, it only took me a second to figure out how to turn it on (FN+f4). Once on it stays on until you manually turn it off again.Other than that stuff, my first impressions have held. I love this thing so far and barring catastrophic failure, I’m very happy I bought it and would recommend it to anyone whose needs (and budget) are in line with mine.———-OG review 4/23/25Based on the first couple of hours, I’m very pleased–and writing this review on the laptop in question while I wait for some of the files I like to have downloaded to finish migrating. Arrived quickly, the box was perfect, the laptop looked perfect, the battery was completely dead which concerned me a bit, but it started charging and turned on as soon as I plugged it in. (And I wouldn’t normally comment on those aspects, except that it seems like the only versions of this laptop that are available as I write this are from third party sellers with mixed reviews, and I was very hesitant to order such a–for me–big ticket item from a third party.) But like I said, the computer itself looked great, no sign of it being a return or anything, and it started charging and turned on as soon as I plugged it in. I did the setup which predictably took a couple of hours with updating and downloading my main apps and such, no problems. So far it’s pleasingly zippy.I loaded Elder Scrolls Online and was able to run around a bit with no lag even in heavily populated areas that made my poor older laptop lag to heck and back, but that’s the most intense gaming I really do, so I while I wanted something to ideally last me a while, I’m not exactly a power gamer. For my purposes it looks like this laptop will do everything I wanted, including not immediately be out of date for anything I want to play for at least a couple of years.I was hesitant about getting an HP, I’ve never had one, I’ve really only used Acers at home, but my dad has long used HP and as his first-line tech support, I’ve absolutely loathed every one he’s ever owned and tried to talk him out of them every time he’s needed a new computer, mostly because of all the bloatware, much of it that I was never able to remove. The first thing I did when I was actually in was take some stuff off and set some stuff I couldn’t be bothered to verify the use of to at least not run on setup, time will tell how much it ends up annoying me. Again, at the moment I’ve only had this laptop a few hours.The screen is nice, the sound is fine, I rarely rely on laptop speakers, most of the time if I care about what I’m listening to I’ll be on headphones. Looks like it should run the games I care about with no problem. I couldn’t beat the price, which is why I took the chance on the HP. My old Acer still runs everything I care about well enough, but it’s too old to update to Win 11 (which I didn’t really want anyway… sigh) but Microsoft keeps emailing me about them killing support for 10 in October and with current events exponentially raising prices of everything across the board, especially tech, whatever they try to insist, I’ve been feeling increasingly panicked about replacing my older laptop ASAP. Which is also why I’m writing this review based on only a few hours of use, something I won’t usually do. If you’re like me, panic shopping because you know you’ll need something in the next year or so and you’re terrified prices are going to skyrocket, at least from my initial impression, this is a good investment for simple gaming on a budget. If this thing dies say, thirty-one days from now, the second it’s out of the return window, believe me, I will update this review immediately.

Exelente aunque tiene cositas
Tuve miedo de comprarla por las malas reseñas, pero tuve suerte que no tuve problemas, es verdad que la batería se acaba rapido, pero es porque aunque este la computadora con la tapa cerrada(es suspensión) el equipo aun sigue funcionando los ventiladores a una muy baja velocidad, casi indetectable, solo si pones tu cara y en la salida de aire, asi que la solución es tocar el boto de apagado y listo, es bastante rapida, el unico problema que eh tenido, es que aveces el click izquierdo del touch pad se traba, y se queda clikeando, pero no es algo que pase mucho, ya que uso un mouse aparte, se soluciona apretando fuerte y listo, los juegos los corre muy bien como hell let loose a todo alto en 45 fps, League of legends ultra a 140 fps, se escucha bien y no es pesada, por el precio y para lo que ofrece va bastante bien, la llevo casi seguido ala universidad ya que uso vscode para usar pythom, y programar y va bien con las multitareas, me rinde la bateria 2 horas de clases como 30% a 40% gasta en modo ahorro de bateria, tengo la versión de 30gb ram y 1tb y de lujo de momento

Great Product, Bad Battery Life, & Deceptive Seller!
I’ve been a customer on Amazon for over 20 years and this is one of the worst experiences I’ve had on Amazon. I’m extremely disappointed with this purchase. The laptop I purchased was supposed to be NEW, but it’s clearly used. I checked the warranty with HP, and it had been activated on Dec 17th, 2024 – I received the laptop on Feb 7th, 2025. The box also had a sticker placed over the computer specs to read as 1TB SSD—32GB RAM. Underneath, it had the official specs which said 8GB RAM and 512GB hard drive. If the hardware were changed, the warranty is void – meaning if something happens to this laptop I won’t be able to get the warranty benefits. The seller is engaging in deceptive practices. I honestly suggest against purchasing this laptop here and going elsewhere, preferably in-store. This was an extremely expensive purchase for me and I’m very disappointed.

Perfecta entrega
Me llegó en perfectas condiciones a ecuador y con las especificaciones que muestra.

Item sent on time and in original box.Laptop specifications exactly as advertised.Had issues with the laptop and seller was quickly responsive. Fix the laptop at no cost and in a professional way.

Pues eso, así como está descrita, así es. Ningún problema hasta el momento, solo me gustaría que fuera un poco más barata.
