I have purchased this laptop on 22/09/2015. It was delivered to me on 25/9/2015 and I have been using this ever since. Observations: Pros: Performance is OK for basic office applications, I am even running another OS inside vmware and it runs very smoothly. Build quality is good. No heating issues encountered in normal usage (No gaming). Additional software from cyberlink is pre-installed along with some other bloatware. Excellent after sale service by HP Cons: No VGA port HP Support assistant shows this product is no longer serviced by HP when I check support options. I called them in this regard and they told me that is not true, this laptop is supported by them & I can get extended warranty if required. Display brightness ok, but too much glare. Only 1 usb 3.0 port No laptop bag

Bought it in Big billion sale and got it delivered in 2 days. Have been Using it for around 1.5 months now. Coming to point the positives apart from price are -- 1. Top of the line specs at this price. 2. comfortable size of keyboard and screen 3. battery life 4. upgradable ram and 1tb hdd 5. No vents get blocked even if you keep it on bed. So no over heating The cons being -- 1. position of speaker is at bottom so sound quality is average 2. Touch pad will take some time getting used to. 3. No office installed. Final Verdict--- for first time buyers and average users. If u get this within 23k go for it. Do no fall in trap of Intel vs AMD. As a user u wouldnt know the difference. if u are contemplating bw buying a tablet vs notebook. A notebook like this will serve you more than a tablet double the price.

I purchased this laptop at Rs. 25690. I must say first of all that i was impressed by its body build when i first opened this laptop. The touch paid quality is also good. The performance of the laptop is also upto the mark. I think anybody can buy, it will satisfy everybody's needs. Only cons I say is the speakers are placed at bottom. and please remember that you people have to buy laptop bag separately, it comes for around 500-550.

In response to Awijeet's comment, when you buy a RAM, it is always listed as DDR, DDR2, DDR3 etc. Here, the DDR stands for double data rate. So, the RAM sends twice the amount of signals as that of the base clock. So, technically speaking, even though the FSB operates at 800 MHz, the RAM operates at 1600 MHz. A simple google search gave me this answer. Do your research next time before misguiding people.

Liked - * External finishing is good and the laptop feels solid in hand. * Weight is pretty nice for the size. Does not feel very heavy. * A8 with 4GB RAM offers decent performance for day to day work. Light games run well. * Windows 10 was pre-installed which is a great thing as i don't have to go through the hassle of downloading and configuring stuff. In general, making Windows available at this price itself is a positive point of this laptop. * Speakers are good - sufficiently loud and clear for songs and movies. If you are on the table, they sound good. On bed, sound may get blocked. The speakers are on the front bottom part of the laptop which is slightly curved. So, laying the laptop on the table does not cover them. * Touchpad is large and supports gestures. I found the two-finger-scroll very nice to use with web browsing. * Wifi range is good. Could have been better - * Keyboard layout could have been better. I do not like the small arrow keys as the are hard to use. HP has given a num-pad on the right instead of giving bigger keys. I personally prefer bigger keys as it makes it easy to type. But, people who use num-pad may like it. * Screen could have been better. It is not very vibrant. It is sufficiently bright. Viewing angles are not great. For the primary user, it works well. But if you want to show videos or pictures to your friends and family members, they experience some darkness unless if they view it from side angles. * The USB ports were not very smooth to use. It took me a lot of force to insert the usb drives. Hope this improves with regular use. Overall feeling - I am happy with this product performance and quality. The fact that it came with Windows 10 pre-installed is what i really liked. This may not be the right choice for a gamer but for all users who want a big screen laptop with good performance for office and home use, this is perfect.

Pros: 1 TB hard disk at low price. 4 GB RAM. Windows 10, Edge and Cortana is simply awesome. Great built, I mean cross brush pattern at back and keybard bulit is too good. and last look up the weight only 2.19 Kg so ultra light..u will not get that much lighter laptop with the same price and specs Cons: Speaker at bottom..difficult to hear under the bed. No bag is provided

not good

Very slow...at everything..... Slower than Pentium IV processor... Only sound and display is good....never buy...better is to buy a cheap laptop... Having Pentium processor...

After using the product for more than 2 years all I can say is it’s a very ordinary product. The processor and the RAM combination is very slow to respond to even fetch a folder in C drive. My requirements were very basic and I had bought this as got it with a very attractive offer. My only complain is if a laptop is not even good enough to browse and basic MS office operations in a smooth manner then probably HP should have discontinue the model. Struggling since last 2 years with this price of brick. Even alt tab command takes 5 seconds to jump to the next page. I have tried the basics like clearing the cookies, installing a good anti virus but nothing works. However Design and battery life is good. So if you want to buy it as a show piece on your desk then go for it.

very nice
