Bit Blocker
Nice computer however it gave me problems right from the start. That was because the bit blocker turned on automatically when I was not using the computer and locked me out of my system. Even though I found the codes to disable it they did not work. Eventually I contacted HP and they had to reformat the hard drive and reload everything. They also turned off bit blocker for me. Then I had problems reloading McAfee which I had paid for. You should give new purchases the choice of using bit blocker or not.

Reliable Performance with a Minor Setup Concern
The HP Laptop 17t-cn300 has proven to be an excellent device with no major issues as of the date of this review. Its overall performance has been reliable, making it a solid choice for professional use. However, one aspect that requires attention is the Microsoft Word program that was purchased as an additional feature.
Upon saving documents, I discovered that Word was preset to automatically store files in OneDrive, rather than in local storage. Since there was no prior information provided about this setting, locating saved files became challenging. After some troubleshooting, I realized my documents were stored in the cloud rather than in the Documents folder on my laptop. As someone who prefers keeping files locally, I had to take additional steps—including deleting OneDrive—to prevent automatic cloud storage.
Apart from this Word storage issue, the initial setup was smooth and hassle-free. As a certified photo-video journalist, blogger, and Google reviewer, I rely on my HP laptop and desktop for critical tasks, and this device has met my expectations well.
Overall, despite the minor inconvenience with OneDrive settings, this has been a great purchase with dependable performance. Users who prefer local file storage may want to adjust settings or seek guidance during setup to avoid similar issues.

Cons about HP Laptop 17
I purchased this laptop because it was pretty much the same as the previous one that I purchased some time ago. However, I do not like the side where the power cord is on which is on the right side and I do not like where the power on and off button is which is located in the middle of the upper keyboard. I much rather have a free sitting button where I can find it without having to look for it.

Not for multiple monitor use
This laptop falls fall short of HP’s normal consideration of customer needs. It will not work with a dock and has only one monitor port. The usb port will not work with monitors either (utilizing appropriate plug and play converter).

I was these items were still included as in my previous Hp Laptop
I really like my new laptop, but I miss the lighted keyboard which was on my old HP 17" Envoy. Also wish it still had a CD player like my previous model. Basically, it is adequate for my needs, but I miss the above mentioned features.

HP Laptop for Our Business
The laptop was exactly matched to the specifications that I gave to the HP rep online when I was ordering it. She took the time to review our needs and give me several different options in the price range that we were working with. The laptop was just what we had asked for and is quick and works great with our camera system

User friendly and great for home and office. It’s perfect for streaming, photos and music.
My computer is very capable of preforming all the tasks I need for home office and online music streaming and using iTunes. I frequently use Word and Excel for home office documents to keep up with personal data. The 16gb of operating memory is sufficient a long with the 1TB of storage. I only wish that the speakers were better and louder.

Good options for price point.
Purchased upgraded replacement for 12yo HP laptop that had been a workhorse.
PROS: Excellent viewing size screen, crisp graphics, reasonable customizing options for this price point, excellent price point for options available. Consistent reliability has been my experience with HP.
CONS: Arrives with unremovable bloatware in Windows 11, AND unwanted HP useless items consuming the space you paid for. Keys feel too light/cheap. Hinge feels weak, opens and closes with some instability. The upper 17" screen is excellent, but lower keyboard area is awkwardly positioned in the large lower area being pushed up to the base of the hinge---reaching to type is then oddly far forward.

HP Laptop 17t-cn300, 17.3"
This was a custom build. Disappointed in the Office add on as I cannot use my Outlook pst file. I had to purchase and use a converter to convert these files to mbox for thunderbird.

Made a very nice gift.
I configured this one for a family member and sent it to her. I expect that it is working fine. In the meantime, the Omen that I use personally is still working beautifully.

To be a good artist you need the best tools.
I am happy to say that it was easy to set up and it should be all I need for my art work and research. With the exception of a software issue it meet all my needs.

Nephew Rocked This Choice!!
My nephew who works for the state of Minnesota is my go to guy for computers since Im an old fart with basic needs. But I needed a big screen, internet access with Microsoft Office. Bailey put me on this computer immediately and it has been one of the most satisfying purchases I've ever made.

Awesome laptop not so great battery
Solid computer. Runs as expected. Wanted a middle of the road laptop for some gaming and some productivity things. Runs the games I play pretty well at normal settings.
This is a 4star review because the only caveat with this computer is the battery life. It really isn't so bad when you're browsing the web, but when you happen to be playing a game (of any kind) as expected it drains the battery- way faster than you would expect. I'm talking about you got an hour or so until you better get it plugged in and charging. Still happy with the laptop, would like a little more life out of this battery though.

ok computer
It is a very good computer, very fast next to my old HP and everything is as clear as a bell. I would give it higher marks if you got rid of Microsoft and Macfee every move they pop up and delay what ever you are doing.
