Excellent laptop

I love this laptop so far, HP finally has got things right. First off I immediately replaced the 1tb hard drive for a Solid State drive and I recommend everyone else do the same. This makes the laptop even faster, it's pretty easy to do. Note: There are 2 screws under the back 2 feet for anyone that goes to do it. Screen is bright and crisp, full HD. Love the backlit keyboard, the bang and olufsen speakers are amazing, didn't expect such great sound quality from a laptop. The screen goes all the way around flat to be used as a tablet with the touchscreen which is a nice feature. This laptop has 2 USB 3.0 ports, 1 USB Type C port, HDMI, headphone/mic jack, and built in sd card reader. Another thing I like about HPs is they still have indicator lights, there is a power on light, hard drive activity light, AND a light that turns orange when the battery is charging and white when it's done, this is VERY helpful and many other brands like Dell, Lenovo, and ASUS don't have any of these indicator lights anymore. Battery life will depend on what you are doing of course and screen brightness but I get over 5 hours with average use. Overall great laptop and I highly recommend.

Excellent laptop for the money

Really solid laptop, the whole casing is aluminum and not cheap plastic so it's very durable. The thing I really like about this one is the bottom panel comes off and you have easy access to everything including hard drive, memory, wireless card, cmos battery and others, very easy to upgrade stuff. I through a solid state drive in it right off the bat and it starts up in around 10 seconds, I can't go without a solid state anymore. Backlit keyboard is really nice, can't go without that anymore. Can't beat the price, it's a really solid laptop for the price. Has a touchscreen, it folds into stand mode which would be nice for like watching movies, videos, or playing games. Has no DVD drive but you can get a cheap usb dvd drive for like $20. Full HD screen which really surprised me at this price. Only thing that bugs me because i'm an IT guy is lack of indicators, no hard drive light, no light letting you know it's fully charged, only lights up when it's on and when it's plugged in, not very intuitive there, but that's nitpicking. Runs extremely cool thanks to the 5th generation Intel processor, as well as me switching out for a solid state. Average battery life for me is between 4-5 hours depending on the load. Touchpad is okay, functional, but it's one solid button instead of having separate buttons for the left and right clicking. Another thing that amazes me at this price point is the fact that it has dual band AC wireless in it. Speakers get very loud and are better than others that I've seen. Overall really great laptop for the price, $449 still a good deal, if you can get it on sale for less than it's a steal.

Excellent tablet for the money
on November 29, 2015
Posted by: realreviews
I've had several cheaper tablets including the brand new $49.99 Kindle Fire and I didn't not have a good experience with that. The new fire os was buggy and just a mess compared to android lollipop which is what is on this digiland tablet. Also the kindle fire only can do amazon apps and there are major titles still missing from the amazon app store that are only in the play store. This tablet can not be beaten for value. It's running lollipop which was the newest up until marshmallow. It has a quad core processor and a 1gb of ram which I've played a bunch of games including plants vs zombies 2, angry birds 2, and a bunch of other with zero lag or problems. The screen is IPS so it's not like the previous junk tablets around this price range. Very surprised at how nice this tablet is for the price. The only downfall to this tablet is the battery life is only up to 4 hours because it's a smaller battery (2100mah), which is smaller than most smartphone batteries. But if shorter battery life isn't an issue then this is a great tablet because it has the full android play store, vanilla android with no skins on top. I'm also using a 64gb micro sd card in it with no problems, minor thing is it does not support exfat so when I inserted my 64gb exfat card it immediately wanted to format it to fat32, shouldn't be an issue as my movies are under 4gb which is the limit to fat32. The tablet has an update to make it more stable out of the box and it NEEDS an SD card in it to do the update because it downloads the update to the sd card. So first thing when you get this tablet, put a microsd card in and perform the wireless update under settings and about tablet so you don't have any issues. Speaker seems to be not quite as loud as others but can't really expect too much from this. One last important thing, this tablet supports OTG over microusb!! Meaning if you get an OTG adapter online you can plug in flash drives or micro sd cards into this through the micro usb port and see them on the tablet! Was not expecting a cheap tablet to have OTG support. Overall this tablet is excellent for the money, only a few downfalls, but for the price you can't complain.

Posted by: realreviews
The reason I went with this one over the others is that it had an easy access panel on the bottom for the memory the wireless card which made it easy to add more ram right off the bat. I threw another 4gb stick in so now it has 8gb, I also upgraded the wireless card to dual band with bluetooth because it came with single band with no bluetooth. I've seen online that you can add up to 16gb in this laptop but I haven't tried that because I don't see a need for it in this for my purposes. The screen is really good, fan is quiet, keyboard is really nice to type on, touchpad actually works fairly well unlike some other laptops and has dedicated click buttons which I like. The webcam I believe is only VGA if I remember so the webcam is not the greatest but I never use it anyways. It has 2 USB 3.0 ports and 1 2.0 port and an SD card reader which is awesome. Has an internal dvd burner which is a little harder to come by nowadays. I also replaced the hard drive with a Seagate solid state hybrid drive to make it boot up and run a little faster because I'm used to using a solid state on my desktop. The hard drive was not quite as easy to get to, had to take all the screws out of the bottom, take the keyboard out and lift the top cover off to get to the hard drive, very tricky if you've never done it before so be careful if you attempt, look at the service manual from hp before you attempt this. Also the battery is removable which is another rare thing these days, a lot of them are internal and a pain to replace. The laptop has an AMD A6-5200 which is actually very snappy, I was surprised how snappy it was being a lower level AMD but it performs well. With all other AMDs it does run a bit warm if you're doing quite a bit on it so make sure to keep the fan vent clear and clean (every couple months it should be blown out). Speaker get very loud so that was nice as well. The only thing on this guy that's not very good is the battery life, I use battery bar to track my battery life statistics and I average about 2 1/2 hours of battery life out of this, and that's with usually fairly high brightness and actually using it quite a bit so it'll depend on your screen brightness and what you're all doing on it. Overall excellent laptop for the money, can't go wrong.

Decent smartphone
on November 17, 2015
Posted by: realreviews
I've had this phone for a few weeks now and I can honestly say it's not bad. My biggest gripe with the phone is that it has no notification light and the battery life could be a little better, I struggle to get through a whole day with it even if I work all day and barely use it. If I'm using it fairly steady it will need to be plugged in a couple times a day. I may trade up to the studio energy which is basically the same specs as this except the battery is twice as big. The 8mp camera actually takes pretty good pictures and it has zero shutter lag in well lit scenarios which is nice. The front camera being 2mp takes pretty decent selfie pictures. Basic functionality such as calls work well which is a must and sometimes forgotten on these high tech smartphones. It's only 4G hspa so that means theoretically up to 21mbps, no LTE for data, but with cricket my speed is capped anyways so I don't see the limitation, but you might actually using at&t which doesn't throttle the speeds. Overall decent phone, if you're looking for amazing battery life look at the Blu Studio Energy instead, a little more but twice the battery so you can last for days instead of under a day.

Would be okay if it didn't have a major issue

Posted by: realreviews
It wouldn't be a bad basic smartphone if it didn't have the issue with not having an overflow button. So apps like Fuel Log where you need the overflow button (3 dots on newer androids) you will be totally unable to use that function in those apps.

Great sound ruined by low volume
on October 27, 2015
Posted by: realreviews
It's a real shame that this sound bar has really low volume and overly spaced volume curve because it sounds really good. You'll find a lot of times that you'll turn the soundbar all the way up and it won't be loud enough. Also when you adjust the volume the volume jumps a lot, it's always too loud or too soft, and that drives me nuts so I'm going to return it for a different one. But despite those major downfalls the sound is excellent, great bass. But because of those two downfalls I can't recommend this model.

Excellent laptop for the money
on August 5, 2015
Posted by: realreviews
You can't go wrong with this laptop. It comes with 6gb of ram but I put an extra 8gb stick in to make it have 12gb, so now I have an i5 with 12gb of ram, not bad at all. On this laptop you have to take everything apart to get to the ram underneath the motherboard but that's how most laptops are nowadays. Also put a 240gb solid state drive in so it boots up in like under 10 seconds, upgraded to windows 10 and it runs beautifully. Battery life is about 3 hours or so depending on the load. Laptop feels really solid overall unlike some of the older HPs that seem more flimsy. Speakers are pretty loud for this unit, has a DVD drive even though that's not used much anymore. Has only 1 USB 3.0 port which is kind of a bummer, should have most by now I would think. Overall excellent laptop for the money.

Excellent laptop with backlit keyboard
on January 14, 2015
Posted by: realreviews
This is an excellent laptop, much higher build quality then I was expecting. I love the backlit keyboard which was the main reason I went for this model. The lighting is really good, has two brightness levels, and the keyboard has a very nice high quality feel to it. The keyboard is tight feeling and quiet, not cheap and clicky feeling like the cheaper laptops. The number pad is also really nice. The touchpad also works well too. I don't really miss having a DVD drive all that much, my old one had it and I didn't really use it ever so I won't miss having that. The battery is underneath the bottom cover, it does lift up and out for replacement but it's not hot swappable like the older laptops. The battery life that I have gotten so far has been around 3.5 hours but that has been with fairly heavy usage including installing stuff on battery, I will update if the average goes up more with lighter usage. The fan on this does seem to run a little louder than my older hp but it's not really that noticeable unless you're in a totally silent room. That being said the laptop does stay very cool. The speakers are pretty good but you need to tweak them with the waves maxx audio and they sound great and are pretty loud. Another thing I like about this laptop is that on the bottom it has a nice easy access panel with 2 screws and you have easy access to the hard drive, wireless card (m.2) and the 1 ram slot (which maxes at 8gb anyways). Swapped the samsung spinpoint 5400rpm hard drive it came with for a seagate solid state hybrid drive and that made it quite a bit more responsive. The hard drive was definitely the bottleneck in this laptop but once I swapped the hard drive for an sshd it is much better, a straight ssd would probably make it even faster. The screen on the laptop get's really bright and then gets really dim for at night which is great. It also doesn't seem to be as shiny as some laptops almost like a bit of antiglare but yet not matte, it just seems to be a really nice middle of the road. Talking about the weight, this thing is quite light with it having no dvd drive and being thinner, I have it in my backpack and don't really notice carrying it unlike my older laptops which made my back hurt. The top cover is a nice brushed aluminum, really makes it seem like it's a more expensive laptop, the plastic also seems higher quality, not that shiny stuff that gets fingerprints all over. Overall I highly recommend this laptop for someone looking for a really high quality built laptop for under $500 with a backlit keyboard and who can live without a dvd drive.

Excellent Capacity, Horrible Audio
By Fotografz
I needed a machine for photo-editing when I'm away from my studio and my desktop PC. This laptop is more than capable of running Adobe CC and other fairly intensive software. I work in Photoshop most of the time and I didn't miss the SSD speed at all. With 12gb of ram and the latest i5 processor, the difference was hardly noticeable.
The real problem for me is the audio... which is really awful. Terrible. My music is extremely important, especially when I'm working. When I saw Bang & Olufsen below the screen, I expected great things and the deal was sealed. Big mistake.
The built in audio enhancement cancels bass response, creating a hollow and metallic sound. My audio engineer friends call this "out of phase". You cannot disable this. You cannot substitute the audio driver (manufactured by Conexant) with the Generic High Definition Windows driver, which would more than likely fix the problem. As a point of reference, my headphones are the Bose Quiet Comfort series, and a pair of Sennheisers.
There are a quite a number of posts in various forums about the HP/Bang Olufsen audio issue. Thus far, HP has offered no solution for this. This is a deal breaker for me.

Great tv
By goldenwizard
I was looking for the perfect TV for our camper that only gave me 30" of width to fit in. This narrowed the size to a 32" max. After searching the Bestbuy inventory online, I noticed this particular Westinghouse TV on sale. Seeing that it was for a camper, it didn't have to be a SMART TV, just a TV that has a good picture and works well. The price I paid for this was $109. and it works perfectly, has a fantastic picture, has all the input jacks needed, including 2 HDMI jacks. We cannot be more pleased with this unit. It also has the pedestal stand which we prefer as opposed to the 4 little legs at the corners of the TV. I would pay more for it if I had to but is a bargain for what I paid. It's just as good as a $279. unit with the same specs.

The problem is that they have consistently updated the s7 & s7 edge late. Android 7.0 Nougat just got pushed out, IN MAY!!! While other carrier locked phones got Nougat them several month in advance as early as December.

DO NOT BUY THIS UNLOCKED VERSION
By Mark937
DON'T DO IT! DO NOT BUY THIS PHONE!
As an owner of the US unlocked Galaxy S7 Edge (G935U), take it from me, you do not want this phone. Updates are virtually nonexistent with this phone! We FINALLY received the 7.0 update just last week! Not 7.1, or 7.1.1 or 7.1.2 - they gave us 7.0! Every carrier received the update WAAYYYY before the unlocked version. Most carriers started pushing the update in December!
And security updates? Hah! That's a joke! At one point we were 4 MONTHS BEHIND on the monthly Security Patch. They actually told us to STOP USING SAMSUNG PAY if we were concerned about security because they were so far behind with this model! THAT WAS THEIR SOLUTION! TO STOP USING A MAIN FUNCTION OF THE PHONE!!
Owners of the US unlocked versions (G935U - S7 Edge, G930U - S7) bought the phone assuming we would at least receive timely updates based on the fact of no carrier involvement. We were even told that we would receive the updates before carrier branded versions because they could bypass the carriers. No such luck. We were promised monthly Security Patches according to their website - http://security.samsungmobile.com/introsm.html - only to never receive them. When asked where our updates were, we were given answers of 'Soon', 'In a week', 'In a few weeks' - never to actually receive them.
If you don't believe me, please check Samsung's own US Support Forum to read the THOUSANDS of posts from furious S7 and S7 Edge owners. Here's just a sampling...
https://us.community.samsung.com/t5/Product-Updates/Announcement-Nougat-Security-Updates-for-Unlocked-S7-Edge/td-p/79935
https://us.community.samsung.com/t5/Galaxy-S-Phones/S7-G930U-G935U-Security-Updates/td-p/47620
https://us.community.samsung.com/t5/Galaxy-S-Phones/Nougat-Update-Unlocked-S7/td-p/61291
There are many more threads on the forum concerning the issue. Please read them BEFORE you purchase this phone. I was a huge fan of Samsung before this fiasco but after shelling out a premium for a flagship phone and then getting the shaft, never again.
