Bought this laptop from Office Max late January. It was on sale for $410, but I had to buy $50 worth of accessories to get that price. Haven't seen that price anywhere else. I would pay much more for this laptop. I think it is built well, sturdy, not too big. It runs cool and has enough power for a casual laptop user such as myself. I use it to surf the web and stream sports and other video. It does everything I need it to with ease, plus it stays very cool. Beats Audio is the best laptop sound I have heard. I know people with Toshiba and Acer laptops and the sound quality is not nearly as good as this laptop. The keyboard is a good size and includes a number pad, which is nice. Screen is bright and crisp. Appearance of laptop is quality as well....it has a brushed stainless steel look. Definitely one of the better looking laptops. I researched laptops for a couple months and found HP to be one of the better units when it comes to quality of materials. I thought Samsung, Toshiba, Acer, and Asus laptops felt cheap in comparison to this laptop. Keep in mind I was looking at laptops in the $400-$500 range. Many of the aforementioned laptop companies improve in quality drastically when you go up in price. I was definitely looking at the base model price range. That being said, this is not a base model unit. This is a mid-range unit that belongs in the $500-$600 price range and will compare to any other laptop in that range. Go to Best Buy and see what you can get for $500-$600 and you will see this is a superior laptop to others in that range. I have been very happy with my purchase. I had to contact HP Support on a couple occasions during setup. Support is hit or miss with any company. The first person I talked to was not much help. The second person I talked to was very helpful and knowledgeable, and he helped me solve my problem quickly. The problem had to do with connecting to my network and had noting to due with computer malfunction. Overall I am very happy with this computer and would buy it again if I needed another.

i bought this amazing computer at 500 bucks and it is worth. i use perfectly adobe after effects, corel paint shop pro x3, world of warcraft and in low settings for gta iv. perfect for a student learning before buying a mega computer like HP envy or a macbook. For me is enough, because it has everything a teen needs. Buy Hp, they are cheap, great and good looking.

Also i recommend amazon. it is great and with the prime account i bought it sunday and i recieved it wednesday, at 11:30 am. And the shipping was free.

A good deal for a very good price, much better than I first thought. A Fully loaded device in a nice and prestigious look.

DO NOT BUY HP PRODUCTS!

HP has the worst customer service. I took my laptop in because there was a short in my video cable that caused my monitor to flicker. They wiped my hard drive, tried to deny my warranty by saying I spilled soda all over the mother board (apparently I sat my laptop on a sticky spot once, but the substance never got near any internal parts), and after several long weeks, sent it back STILL BROKEN with a $800 bill! Customer service ran me in circles for months trying to get the issue resolved before I finally got a phone call basically saying, "That's too bad." When I took the laptop to the local repair shop I got the cable replaced in under 24 hours and only paid $50.

Toshiba, Samsung and Sony are all GREAT machines; they're more reliable and won't treat you like trash while stealing your cash.

We are ready to buy a laptop and this HP meets our needs. With many satisfied purchases from Amazon, this is where we want to purchase it. However, it is on sale at Office Max with a $100 discount, for $579.99. Will Amazon be matching this price? We have carefully matched the OEM product number and it is the same laptop.

The keyboard is silver which makes it hard to see. It's heavy and hard to carry. Though I am still using it, it has had to be repaired many times for overheating. I have to have a laptop cooler on it at all times to prevent over heating and use it in short time periods.

Watch out if you buy an HP Laptop. They don't build a good product. It is cheaply made and breaks over nothing. And don't expect any help from HP. There is a good reason why they got out of the laptop business. They aren't any good at it. Buy a better computer from a better company. Don't solely focus on price.

Hp pavilion was what i was especting for, nothing bad to say, i generally like hp products, let say is 9/10 notebook.
