HP 15 Pentium 4GB/128GB Laptop-Scarlet Red

I received this computer a few weeks ago and have used it everyday since then! It comes in a box with the computer and a charging cable. I have been wanting a personal laptop for quite sometime, but didn't know what kind would be the most useful to me. This HP has met every one of my needs. It has a 15.6 inch screen and comes standard with an HDMI and a USB-C port as well as an ethernet port. On the right side it has two USB ports and a SD memory card slot. I have mainly used this computer to check emails and play on the internet, but most recently I downloaded a flight simulator game to it. I was a little worried that it might run slow, since this is not a "gaming laptop" but i have had no issues with latency or glitches using the flight simulator. I haven't had time to use all the features it offers yet, but it comes already loaded with Microsoft Edge as well as your standard office applications such as excel and word and many others. It is very simple to set up and as soon as you turn it on, it "walks" you thru the set up. I think the setup took about 5 minutes to complete but I found it helpful as it shows you some of the things that you might not otherwise have known about. I would definitely recommend this computer for anyone who wants a good reliable high speed computer to use at home.

I am not a "techie", but I love and embrace how modern technology enhances my life. And I really enjoy learning about new tech options, and using this laptop has really been educational for me. The set up was absolutely seamless and perfect! With Cortana's friendly guidance, and HP presence {not bloatware, just good stuff), I really enjoyed personalizing this laptop. This is my first experience with a fine quality solid state device, so I had to do a little homework. I see so many benefits in using this laptop: no moving drive parts means a silent operation, extremely fast boot (it takes my unit 11 seconds, on broadband, for total start up, and streaming is so fast and efficient! I have learned so much about SSD drives in a laptop. Here are a few facts: Less heat and vibration, sturdier for travel, and more energy efficient. Oh, and again, so fast, yet quiet! The storage offered in this laptop fits my needs to a "T". I don't store tons of data on my laptop, but i did add an SD card so i can move and store photos, etc. easily. I know some of Us may think that 4 gigs of RAM, and 128 GB solid state hard drive isn't much, but personally, when I consider what I do with my laptop- streaming, social networking, communicating, researching, shopping, and all common daily activities, then this is perfect! It is more lightweight, more quiet, faster, more durable, and more efficient than a laptop with an HDD drive. And , nowadays, we all have so many options for cloud storage, that we really don't have to rely solely on our more portable computers for storage and saving data. I have done my homework, and realize it may not be for everyone. But for me, personally, experiencing how the newer SSD drives function has changed how I look at my personal computing. This laptop has opened a whole new world to me. It moves quickly and efficiently, and that is a good thing!
