Hoping for 10 more years
My previous workstation (Z-620) lasted 10 years. Everything on this new one worked right out of the box. A very zippy machine. Quiet too. Nice organization inside the case. Excellent design and build quality.

HP ENVY
This is the second HP Envy for me. After the first one died, I liked Envy enough to replace it with the same brand. Although my new Envy is an upgrade from the last one, the new laptop is running slower. The new keyboard is a piece of junk. When the lit keyboard is on, you can't read it under dim light and completely useless in the dark. The new laptop was infected with 2 viruses shortly after I bought it though I am not sure that's the fault of the laptop or the program. Given a chance to do over, I would most likely switch to another laptop brand.

Good allaround Laptop
The biometric login is fantastic providing security without having to use a password. Startup is fast allowing you to spend your time working versus waiting. The monitor is exceptional and great for streaming movies, reviewing or editing your favorite photos. A great value for the price.

Not many options for 17-inch touchscreens
I bought this Envy to replace the six-year-old Pavilion that had been slowly dying over the past two years, with power management problems, nonfunctional keys, dead camera, loss of touchscreen functionality, and a fan that was on the verge of quitting again after being replaced. The Pavilion ran hot all the time. There aren't many options for 17-inch touchscreen laptops, so I decided to call the Pavilion a lemon and take a chance on the Envy. Here's the good: the Envy is a lot lighter and the footprint is smaller. It stays cool. The bad: battery life is nowhere near what HP claims. The fingerprint scanner is not great. The ugly: power management still stinks. The machine doesn't automatically sleep when it's set to. Would I buy another one? I don't know, maybe.

Don't recommend HP's support at least.
Purchased for a small buisness, we have three of them. Two of them are working just fine. The third one has started suddenly powering off and will not power back on for several hours. I've been given the run around by HP Support. They want to charge a $60.00 one time trouble shooting fee to examine the OS, when I've already reviewed the logs, ran some diagnostic tests and determined the OS is fine. The issue is somewhere in the hardware.

From 22 Years Desktop User to First Laptop-2021!
Being my very first Laptop and a BIG upgrade from Windows 7 to 11, I can't be too critical. The wi-fi connection speed is fast and I'm ready to go in no time. This includes adding an external HD device Toshiba 2 terabyte connected to a 4 port USB device. Whatever scanning that took a long time on my older Desktop is now quite fast. I am a little disappointed in the audio, but that is because I'm a musician, use to BIG stereo sound, volume (even with my widescreen TV with soundbar) is far preferable as for music concerns. Volume, Tone is limited. The device does not come with a good video player program other than Windows Media Player. I downloaded something cheap, but it won't play certain file types such as "BUP" file extensions on most of my older DVDs. I also have to search for a stand-alone CD/DVD player-maybe one that comes with a program to play old and new media.
There is no photo editing program such as PhotoShop. Thus, I will have to download the latest edition . I did not care for having to pay a "yearly fee of $99.00" for MS Office so I cancelled prior to the 30-day trial.

A really good decision to purchase this computer.
This is one of the better decisions I have made lately. This was very easy to set up and use. The price is very competitive and is a great value.

Enjoying my new laptop!
Compared to my previous HP laptop, this is great. My biggest feature on the HP Envy that the other one didn't have was the ability to disable the touchpad. I'm a mouse person so the touchpad isn't necessary for me. Keyboard is great. I like the size. The one weird thing is that the power button is right up there in line with the function keys instead of some separate place.

Quality
I purchased this for my paraplegic brother who has very, very limited use of only one hand. He is deaf and non verbal and is in a group home.
He is able to use his laptop for Skyping me daily and has 3 children’s games on it also. This is his 3rd laptop and 2nd HP. He HAS to have a “touch screen” in order to do anything on his laptop. He is unable to use a mouse.
So his laptops are VERY expensive for me to purchase.
The last one was fine with no complaints, which is why I went with HP again. This one however is awful. The sound I get is so bad that when a caregiver is in his room and tries to talk with me, I can’t even understand them and they have to call me on the phone. The video or picture I receive of my brother is pathetic. It’s like there are fingerprints or something over the camera. (Blurry)
As our communication is mostly signing this is really frustrating and sad.
Every time he calls I never know if there will be sound or not, more than half the time for some reason there is no sound.
I live in North Carolina and he lives in Pa. I am 77 years old and I don’t know what to do.
I purchased a computer with so much stuff that my brother can’t use but I had to, to get the touch screen which he HAS to have.
I can’t explain what a BIG part of my brothers life it is to be able to Skype with me every day and sometimes with other family. He does not have much of a life.
I can’t believe I saved up and spent over $1,000 and have this kind of quality.

Not a happy camper however it's not HP's fault.
I actually received the computer a couple weeks ago but haven't used it yet. Upon the initial boot-up I was confronted with the fact that it is now mandatory that you have a Microsoft account to boot up or use a Windows computer. At the time I wasn't ready to deal with that level of BS so I shut it down and haven't even tried again since. Eventually I'll have to start an account and fire-up the new computer up as my job (self-employed consultant) requires it. The old laptop is eleven years old and just hanging on. It's a shame as the new HP is probably wonderful. Microsoft's insistence on getting too involved in your life is really a turn-off. Check back with me in a while. I'll probably cool off and love it.

Good design, comfortable screen.
I've got this computer to do business, basic graphic design, programing and some computer crunching numbering. It works OK, it is way faster than my previous Envy 360 (I've decided not to by 360's anymore because the hinges of the lid are very cheap and badly designed...they don´t last very long) and to be honest, a 17" screen is too big to use it as a tablet. I had enabled 4 processors (out of 8) and the computing speed is super fast (combined with the solid state memory). I had choose the 1 TB solid state memory so I can store big data sets for analysis instead of using the cloud, particularly to avoid internets speed issues (that I frequently have where I live). The screen size is very comfortable and allows me to work with 3 screens at the same time (while comparing data from different sources). Overall, it was an improvement from my previous Envy360, and I am very pleased to have it. It does cover all of my needs.

I am not a computer person. I studied different features and decided what I wanted on my replacement. So far, with my limited usage, I am learning how to get through things and am pretty satisfied with the laptop.

a little faster but not much difference from last HP. Odd thing is when I set this computer up, the HD on previous HP computer crashed before I could get all my info. Seems oddly coincidental
