HP 8GB RAM Student and Home Laptop with Microsoft 365, 64GB SSD, Fast Intel Core, Win 11 w/o Earbuds – Perfect for Work & Play

I got this laptop to replace my old music server that was having issues snyching with my sound system. This does the job. It's pretty slow, but once it finishes the startup, it runs well. Don't expect to do a lot (i.e., any) multitasking. The screen looks fine and the keyboard is actually pretty usable. My bluetooth mouse paired immediately and just works. I have no complaints. Sure, it's slow, but what did I expect at a $300 price point? It comes with Windows 11 Home in S mode (only products from the Microsoft store can be installed) but has good instructions on how to get it to boot into Windows 11 Home. The product page says "Perfect for Work & Play". This may be true if your work doesn't require anything actually productive and your play consists of simple games. It's not a powerhouse, but if your needs match the specs, it will do nicely.

I love my new laptop. My older HP laptop was soooo slow and did not support Windows 11. This one works great and is much faster.

It's hard to express how disappointed I am with this laptop. I will be the first to say that I am not a techy person. I only wanted a laptop to play cards on and write a Christmas letter. After one year I am nearly out of room in my storage. I took it to my IT guy and he deleted a few files but nothing substantial. He said that all the Windows updates are taking up the room and there isn't anything I could do about that. He suggested buying a larger hard drive so I decided to do that because I have loved this laptop. So he takes it apart and finds that there is no way to put a larger hard drive into it. So I'm just plain screwed because soon the updates will take up ALL the room and my laptop will be obsolete. I just can't believe this happened to my laptop after less than one year of use. The kicker on all of this is not being able to replace the small hard drive with a larger hard drive because I was willing to do that. I'm so frustrated.

Absolutely love this laptop. Very well priced. Multifunctional and easy to use. Good sound quality and processor speed. I use it daily for anything from social media, to streaming movies and shows, as well as office work. Only "issues" Ive had are that is takes quite a few seconds for it to start up, and one ONE tiny tiny pixel is out on the screen when I got it. But that being said, its perfect for my needs.

Has worked out week

Great little laptop for a great pricepoint. I travel with it; it's light and does everything I need.

Just know what you are purchasing before you order this. There’s a reason it’s inexpensive. If you need a laptop for word processing and email, I suppose this will do the trick. But know the processor is slow, the camera is low quality and the screen resolution is marginal.

Easy to use for my grandson !!!!
