The HP laptop generally receives positive feedback for its value, speed, and lightweight design, making it ideal for work and study. However, several verified reviews highlight significant issues: a defective display, poor customer service from HP, a clacky keyboard, and the restrictive Windows 11 S-Mode that blocks non-Microsoft apps. The keyboard labels are hard to read without backlighting, and one unit arrived with only 4GB RAM instead of the advertised 8GB.
Pros
- Good value for money
- Fast performance
- Lightweight and portable
- Clear screen
- Comfortable keyboard
Cons
- Windows 11 S-Mode restrictions
- Defective display on some units
- Poor HP customer service
- Clacky cheap plastic keyboard
- Keyboard labels hard to read without backlight
