Helpful consumer’s review
Before buying this laptop I had bought one from Gateway and it gave me so many problems that I couldn’t stand it. I returned it to the store and my only other option for the same price was this laptop. I absolutely love it! Its 100x sturdier than the Gateway and much better looking with its lightup “HP” symbol and cool design. Also, the performance is just as good.
PROS
-durability
-style
-speed
-price
-hardware
-audio quality(high definition)
-ports (HDMI, eSATA, VGA, USB)
-comes with a remote
-battery life (over 2 hours of heavy use)
CONS
-runs hot
-seems to be a little buggy (video card driver crashes every once in a while but recovers itself after a few seconds. Reinstalling driver didn’t fix the problem)
-there is no program that comes with the computer or from HP that allows the webcam settings to be changed (resolution, quality, etc)
Overall I LOVE this laptop though and I’m glad that I bought it regardless of its flaws. The value is amazing!
