5.0 out of 5 stars A great investment for work and fun

Great laptop for when you want it to be more than just a work laptop. Its built for a certain level of gaming meaning it can handle some beefier tasks like handling multiple tabs and or programs at once and just great for watching videos and playing the occasional steam game. Laptops never have the level of sound i desire however this is not bad if im just doing my thing in my space. Overall great performance and the battery life is looking good because ive been able to just walk away from it. Shut it down and still have some battery left later if I didnt bother putting it on the charger.

5.0 out of 5 stars Battery life sucks, good bang for your buck, needs upgrades.

I'm not a tech junkie but I've had this victus for over a year or so and it's handled very high res games consistently. Starts up faster than most phones. Will suggest though upgrading the ram and memory ASAP. You get a good amount of gigs after the updates but be aware. The ryzen core 5 series holds up graphics but ... The battery life absolutely sucks you will be chained to the wall while playing game.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent graphics and size

So far so good! My daughter has been using it mostly for Roblox and YouTube. She can see everything in such good quality compared to her old desktop... And this one gets to come with her if she ever wants to travel! Lovely buy so far. The battery doesn't last as long as I would want but it does charge fairly quickly.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great entry level laptop but lacking ram

Great entry level laptop with decent hardware to back it up, although I found that out of the box, 8gb of ram wasn't enough and was the system bottleneck right out of the box. The system was lacking speed and fps while gaming. I grabbed a basic 8gb ram stick for $20, jumping the system to 16gb, and wow what a difference! 30-40fps gain instantly. Finally can utalize the great 144hz monitor with great screen quality. Battery life is lacking, but that's to be expected on a gaming rig. Sound quality is meh, and weight is right in the middle. Feels plenty durable!HP could retain a lot of customers with this amazing entry level laptop if they simply made it a 16gb of ram system out of the box. Do yourself a favor and upgrade that ram right away!

5.0 out of 5 stars Great laptops!! HP has very slow, tooth pulling experience for service.

Laptops are perfect gaming laptops for beginners. I got them for my three kids and they play FF14 on them without any issues. Dealing with HP product support and customer service was a nightmare and it took me almost 2 hours to have a defective charger replaced.

I adore this laptop. I had a Macbook Pro 16 for five years and it was the worst computer I've ever owned. I got this laptop and it's like cool water after being stuck in a desert. Great battery life, humongous screen, solid for games, easily upgradable in terms of RAM. The only flaw it has are the speakers, which are terribly low and don't match the standards of the rest of the computer. HP made a winner.

Mal funcionamiento

La compré en Diciembre y apenas se la di a mi hijo, todo el tiempo estubo cerrada y empaquetada. Y ahora que la usa, la pila solo le dura 20 min y se supone que es nueva.
