Breaks down easily
So let's begin with the basics. Like most any laptop, this one meets all of my basic needs and requirements. It allows me to get on the internet, download music, upload pictures and does all of this with ease. The screen is more than enough for working, playing, or watching movies. The laptop itself is fairly light when considering the screen size but it is not very portable as I consider this laptop to be more of a desktop replacement. I haven't had that many problems or issues with it but the ones that have come up have been significant. The fan overheats very quickly so I had to purchase an additional laptop fan for it. When this happens, it becomes VERY loud and noisy. According to consumer reports that are issued yearly, HP laptops also have the highest hardware failure rate of any brand that is tested and I have found this to be true in my experience as well having had to restore the hard drive twice. Most frustrating is that the power button became dislodged to the point that I had to forcefully press on it several times just to boot up the computer.
