Rated 5 out of 5 by P1310 from HP ENVY 17: a History of Quality HP Envy 17”:: Setup = easy! 3-step paper pictorial sheet. :: OS Usage = MS windows, dual booting with LINUX Fedora 42. :: favorite features: numerical keyboard, HP 4K UHD display. While I have used 2 other high-quality brands of laptops in a corporate setting, I insist on HP because of sturdiness, build quality, and service. This 2025 HP Envy 17" Laptop is a preemptive replacement for: my HP Spectre 360 Laptop [born 2017-11-27], which I still use daily over seven years for C++ development. The Spectre has LINUX Fedora 41 OS. About 2 years after my Spectre warranty expiration, I contacted HP to pay for cleaning, fan service, etc. The help team supervisor delivered a box to return the Spectre the next day. Cost of the service was ZERO! My initial experience with superior HP quality was in the RPN calculator arena: 15C, 41, 48, PRIME.

Rated 3 out of 5 by Anonymous from HP Review from Roger Reisinger PC works fine. Have Problems with all extra un-needed applications and startup crap. When using PC link to copy files from old computer, it copies files to one-drive and forcing me to by more space, i have a 2TB hard drive. That should have been plenty for all my files. I am dis-satisfied with buying extra products.

Rated 3 out of 5 by pgmr from An okay, "settle for" laptop I was asked to review my "173 inch laptop". 173 inches? Wow. Well, I like my 17" laptop...sorta. The 17" size is slowly disappearing but it is very useful for displaying documents side by side in a reasonable size. Also, for complex user interfaces like Photoshop, 16" is too small for my taste. I like the laptop's dark gray color; I was pretty sick of the shiny, silvery color of my last HP laptop. The keys also are gray with nice backlights when needed. I appreciate the lights on the Caps Lock key, Power key, and Microphone/F8 key, but would like one on the Num Lock key. I would have purchased a better graphics card but better ones were not available for this model. The fan doesn't run often and when it does, it's quiet (unlike my last laptop which, as it got older, had more and more fan noise, like it needed a screw tightened or something). The screen is very good, no black pixels, great color, and plenty bright for indoors (I have not tried it outdoors). The touchpad responds quickly, reliably, and accurately. I absolutely need a number pad and this laptop has one; these are increasingly hard to find nowadays. Now for what I don't like: 1. The sound is awful; music lacks treble and voices are annoyingly lacking in the non-vocal letters like "b", "p", "d", "s", etc. It sounds like someone talking through a blanket. Try learning a new language when you can't hear half the sounds. There is absolutely no way to adjust sound settings except volume, which at this price, I think is ridiculous. 2. The touchpad is wa-a-ay too big and is not centered below the standard keyboard so my right palm constantly is touching it when I type, causing the cursor to move who knows where a hundred times a day. 3. The keyboard requires very firm typing. I am so used to my last HP which had a very light touch and I could type a mile a minute. This laptop, however, seems to need much more pressure and definitely in the center of the keys or the keypress is not recognized. It is especially annoying on the numpad which I use throughout the day. For games like Sudoku, where you're typing only numbers, it misses about 25% of keypresses and I have to go back and retype the number. VERY annoying and unacceptable in my view. I have tried tweaking the Keyboard settings but the problem remains unsolved. 4. The small, half-size Power on/off key is right next to the small, half-size Delete key. Both keys are above the Backspace key. 5. The CoPilot key replaces the right Control key. This is not just on HP laptops but it is annoying since I use the Rt Ctrl + Enter key combo many times a day. I installed MS PowerToys just to be able to reprogram CoPilot back to right Ctrl. AFAIK, there is no registry key available to alter the key assignment. 6. I never get anywhere near 6 hours of battery run time, more like 3.5-4, and that's just typical browser, email, and minor Excel computation. I don't move this laptop around at all; it is firmly set in the family room. I easily could keep it plugged in but HP's online battery "maintenance" tips say to drain the battery often. It's a pain in the neck to get down on the floor to unplug it every morning and then plug it back in around noon. Rinse and repeat for the afternoon. Needless to say, I don't do it everyday. 7. The only real set-up problem I had was with the warranty which was listed incorrectly and which took multiple customer service contacts before it was fixed. There also was a minor issue with the screen colors initially being practically fluorescent until I adjusted it. 8. HP touts its rewards for purchase but after you wait the mandatory 36 days, you find rewards cannot be used on software. I waited over a month to buy MS Office only to find I could not use the $40+ reward. 9. There is no fingerprint sensor, only facial recognition. 10. The function keys are small, half-size keys that are progressively offset to the left from the number keys below them. The "F_" labels on these keys are extremely small. The offset increases with each key; for example, while the F1 key is right above the "1" key, the F6 key is only half above the "6" key, and the F10 key is almost all above the "9" key. 11. The HP customer support website is a mess. It doesn't recognize the product #/serial # in some pages but does on other pages. Nothing seems organized; it's easy to go down a rabbit hole clicking links, only to end up back at the beginning. It's nearly impossible to talk to a live person and the robot helper is not helpful if your question is outside its decidedly small database of answers. All in all, if I had been able to go to a physical store to try out this laptop, I would not have bought it, mostly for the keypress issues. Also, since we are stuck with online purchase, it would be nice if HP offered more customization options. I "settled" for this laptop. It did not have all features I wanted and was willing to pay for but it was the best I could find.

Rated 4 out of 5 by Anonymous from Aggravating problems Experienced 2 on-going annoyances: Cannot connect the new HP laser printer bought recently as the computer refuses to be found by the printer, Secondly, It reports the camera is being blocked. I tried all the suggestions on your website and on Google. So I have to type in my pin constantly.

Rated 3 out of 5 by Alan83 from For the price, it's a mediocre laptop. Default power settings are incredibly annoying, like the screen dimming if it thinks you look away. The built-in camera doesn't display color well and often doesn't function properly with Windows Hello. The touch pad is very finicky about exactly where you click and is hard to use. The touch pad definitely needs to be improved. The main redeeming feature is the 4K display, which I consider to be the minimum acceptable resolution for any computer monitor.

I do not see dvd drives

Asked by: tjg41
Thank you for your question! As consumer demands for laptops lean towards slimmer, lighter, and longer battery life, internal DVD disc drives are no longer being offered. An external USB is a great option for this.

How is the sound of the laptop, is it loud enough compared with the ones that have the bangs and olufsen speakers, the last hp envy I purchased in 2018 didn't have a good sound

Asked by: brmatiq
Thank you for your question! As this question is subjective, this forum cannot answer it properly. What one may find to be great sound, another may not. However, this HP Envy Laptop 17 has Poly Studio sound with dual speakers capable of DTS:X Ultra and has HP Audio Boost. DTS:X Ultra is a technology designed to enhance audio experiences, particularly for gaming and XR, by creating a three-dimensional audio environment. It allows for precise placement and movement of sound effects, providing a more immersive and realistic listening experience.
