Good: compact body, good display, ports TB4 - more than enough. Bad: Very noisy, especially when downloading updates from the internet or just files in a network; but even in general you always must keep the laptop in energy-saving mode if do not want destructive noise from the fan. Very bad keyboard: hard to recognize symbols on the keyboard since the colour of symbols merges with the colour of the keys. But the biggest concern is a video card: you do not have any control over a discreet card: which means on some tasks where video card power is required the display becomes frozen in milliseconds. But you are not able to force const work of the discrete card in BIOS, only Windows decides when to start using it, but this functionality doesn't work well.

This 2-in-one laptop is the perfect size and weight when you need to be on the move. The size is also good a a more fixed device on a desk - the keyboard/wrist rests are all very ergonomical. The options available for configuration should be able to support everyone's requirements - whether it is the screen size, touch-screen, HDD size, or memory size - there are a lot of options to fit your specific needs. I have used HP products for many years - they have served me well - I have no regrets with this purchase.

Great performance for the price point. Wish it was a bit lighter in weight but still good

Excellent laptop, almost as good as the HP Envy I am replacing. Would have been nice to keep the 4 USB ports!

So far so good. I've got an HP Studio G5 that's served me well for years and have purchased this one for my husband who does photography.

This is not a gaming laptop but it's equipped like one. Its 13th gen 14 core/20 threads Intel i7 13700H is super fast, the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4060 is game worthy and the 32 GB RAM is more than enough for just about anything (in 2023, who knows what the future holds). The two Thunderbolt 4 ports are also quite fast but I have yet to test them at their full capacity since I don't have enough devices to reach 40 Gbps; my external SSD is limited to 4.8 Gbps which I easily get every time. It came with a touch screen which I don't need nor use so I won't comment on it. The track pad is a joy to use. Overall design is pleasing and seems solid. Windows 11 however is not my cup of tea, there are a few bugs with it and setting it up is a hassle but it's the reason I bought a new laptop, Windows 10 going out of support next year. I shopped for weeks before choosing this laptop and price/performance/quality, it's the best I could find. Having done business with HPE on the server side for years, I trust this company to provide quality products. This laptop came in a bundle with an extra 3 year warranty which I wouldn't have paid for since I think this laptop doesn't need it. But even with the warranty, the price was better than the competition (that doesn't have this warranty) for the performance and quality it offers.

This laptop has a luxurious design and is made with high-quality materials, all at a price below $3k. I returned two different brands of laptops with the 13980HX processor, 64 GB RAM, and the same SSD size and dimensions. One had the GeForce 4070 GPU, and the other had the A3000 GPU. These laptops were also priced between 1 to $2k higher. I returned them due to compatibility issues that the manufacturers were unable to resolve. However, when I started using this laptop, I discovered many rich features such as a touch screen, a 5MB camera, a flexible keyboard and numerous other features. This laptop is the only one I found that matches exactly what was advertised. It is also the first laptop with the Intel 13th gen series 9 processor that I couldn't find any issues with. In my opinion, it is definitely worth every cent.

4 years ago, I purchased a HP Spectre x360 which served as my work daily driver up until recently. I had high hopes for my HP Envy-that is, until I discovered that the 2.8K screen was quite awful. Although the screen's resolution on paper isn't that low, it feel like a much lower-resolution screen with overly large and visible pixels. To my eyes, it feels like staring at a checkerboard grid. I also asked two other people to look at the screen and they too confirmed the problem. I spent over an hour with tech support to figure out if I had faulty hardware or if it was just a software setting that needed to be change. The conclusion was that there was nothing wrong with my device, so I decided to go to a local electronics store. There, I found another HP laptop that looked exactly the same. The Envy with a 4K screen was better, but it still exhibited a similar problem, albeit to a lesser degree. Overall, this is puzzling to me because I've never had such a poor experience with a desktop or laptop with a sub 4k screen. I have since purchased a different laptop and I'm content with its lower-grade QHD screen which does not look like a checkerboard to my eyes. Unfortunately, the screen was a dealbreaker for me and I hope that future screen manufactured by HP will be comparable to my 4-year old HP Spectre's.
