Issues from day one, September 16, 2017 This review is from: HP Pavilion 15.6" HD SVA Brightview WLED-backlit Laptop PC, Intel i5-6200U 2.3GHz 8GB DDR4 RAM 1TB HDD DVD+/-RW WIFI Bluetooth HDMI, B&O PLAY, USB 3.0, Windows 10, Gold (Personal Computers) This laptop didn't work for me. I got it quickly from Amazon and started to the set it up. When the new Windows 10 version started to download I got the first error that is can't finish the upgrade. I looked at the error message it was something with the RAM. Still, I gave it a chance and started working with the existing version. Every 30 minutes I was getting a "blue screen" and the laptop restarted. Unfortunately I had to return the item and get a different laptop. Without the issues it could have been a nice cheap laptop. Too bad it was bad on arrival. 2 stars from me... Help other customers find the most helpful reviews Was this review helpful to you? Real pain, September 25, 2017 This review is from: HP Pavilion 15.6" HD SVA Brightview WLED-backlit Laptop PC, Intel i5-6200U 2.3GHz 8GB DDR4 RAM 1TB HDD DVD+/-RW WIFI Bluetooth HDMI, B&O PLAY, USB 3.0, Windows 10, Gold (Personal Computers) First thing I did was try to clone it to an SSD. It restarts TWICE without asking while in the middle of cloning. This is more about their choice of operating system. If I could get a refund for the OS and put a real operating system on that understands that the owner is in total control, I would do that. Oh, and I got several D1 bug check blue screens too. Way to go HP. Help other customers find the most helpful reviews Was this review helpful to you? Great laptop for the price!, October 17, 2017 This review is from: HP Pavilion 15.6" HD SVA Brightview WLED-backlit Laptop PC, Intel i5-6200U 2.3GHz 8GB DDR4 RAM 1TB HDD DVD+/-RW WIFI Bluetooth HDMI, B&O PLAY, USB 3.0, Windows 10, Gold (Personal Computers) It works great, and great price. I can run Adobe Photoshop and Illustrator at the same time without issue. It's super light, which is also a plus.
Battery life seems pretty good, but I'm not on it all day.
I just wish HP would stop putting all the bloatware on their computers, but I just went in and cleared most of it out.
Definitely a good laptop for the price range it's in. Help other customers find the most helpful reviews Was this review helpful to you? |
