    Pretty Solid Work Computer

    I've been using the HP Envy Desktop for work, and overall it's been a decent machine. The 12GB of memory and 1TB SSD give it plenty of storage and decent speed, but every now and then it can lag a bit with heavier tasks. Nothing too crazy, but noticeable at times. One thing that surprised me is it doesn’t come with a disc drive, which felt odd for a desktop—ended up having to buy an external one. Still, for the price, it's a solid option if you’re looking for something reliable for everyday work.

    Had a few quirks in which I couldn't get some of my programs to work, but that wasn't H.P.'s fault. It's amazing how much more I can do with more speed in not only opening my document's, and start up, but opening internet pages as well.

    Fantastic Value / Good Geek Squad Recommendation

    This was a great recommendation by the geek squad. I had purchased a Gaming Nitro before and the motherboard fried in two years and three months. Due to proprietary parts, it cannot be repaired. However, the great idea was to move the video card that this one lacked over since it had the slot and I would upgrade the processor and solid-state Drive in the process with a more reliable PC.. Overall this was a fantastic value! The performance, when it was all said and done was remarkable. My fastest PC for the dollar.

    So the computer itself is really nice. I was amazed how it boots up so unbelievably fast. I am impressed with the computer for all my none gaming needs. Had one small glitch on a start up, but rebooting fixed that. I however am not impressed with the very basic wireless mouse which does work or the bad keyboard (at least mine) which doesn't. The keyboard multiple types letters and numbers too many times to be usable. I tried slowing down the timing to the lowest setting, but to no avail. Probably should try to warranty it, which I hope is not a big hassle. I've always stuck with HP and this is really the first issue I've ever encountered.

    A Powerful and Sleek PC for Everyday

    Here’s a sample review for the HP Envy with an Intel Core i5 processor: I recently purchased the HP Envy with an Intel Core i5 processor, and so far, I’ve been really impressed! This PC offers a perfect balance of performance and design. The i5 processor handles multitasking with ease, whether I’m working on multiple applications, streaming videos, or browsing with many tabs open. It’s fast, responsive, and handles everyday tasks effortlessly. The 13.3-inch display is vibrant, and the thin bezels make it look modern and sleek. I love the lightweight, premium build, making it easy to carry around for work or travel. The battery life is solid too, lasting a full day of work without needing to recharge. The keyboard is comfortable for typing, and the sound quality, with the Bang & Olufsen speakers, is surprisingly good for a laptop of this size. My only gripe is that the laptop tends to heat up a bit when under heavy load, but it’s manageable. Overall, the HP Envy with an Intel Core i5 is a fantastic choice for anyone looking for a reliable, stylish PC that delivers good performance for work, study, or light entertainment.

    The price was great and since I have the bestbuy total membership I wasn't worried about the warranty. It works great but I couldn't upgrade to Windows 11 Pro. I had to reformat the hard-drive, install Windows 11 Home from the MS site and then I was able to upgrade.

    The computer is doing great, I on the other hand am being handicapped because there is no physical manual. I usually take my manuals with me and read when I can. Having it only available on line gives you only the time you can access the system to read and then you have to do it again to learn the processes with the system.

    I like it pretty well. Two complaints, though. My music editing software is glitchy unless I go into airplane mode. Also the setup instructions could have been a little clearer, specifically about the mouse and keyboard running off the same stick. Those are my only complaints.

    Computer arrived on time and was relatively easy to install. My only real issue was I received an e-mail from Best Buy in Bozeman, MT offering the same computer for $200 less than I paid.
