With the added security (especially if you have the hard drive encrypted or a BIOS password), it will take longer to boot. If you have other items plugged in (external hard drives, mice, etc), it will take time to recognize, therefore, longer to boot. If the hard drive is full, or fragmented, the system will be sluggish overall. The best way to speed up boot is to turn off features. Only problem is, you won't have them in Windows.
Is it good for students? Will use word, powerpoint, read pdfs, attend lectures on zoom and sometimes for movies and youtube. Is it a good option in 2020?
Good review , may I ask if this laptop is good and comfortable for computer science tasks , or should I choose a hp probook 650 g2 ? ? I mostly practice java ,php js , mobile/andorid programing ,virtual machine with liunx running ,and oracle databases . Thank you
Hi sir, I just bought this device and Wonder if it is good enough to stream movies, working in office and even play a little bit of League of legends or should I sell it again?
It still works great! I also have the 8GB RAM i7 4th Gen, even though I don't use it for programming and stuff, it works just fine for college and daily work.
You have to get a SIM from a phone carrier. If you have the SIM option, you slide the card into the computer through the slot. #Thanks for the question!
Which RAM memory works on this little guy? I have read that it only runs single-sided RAM modules... If you could link me some RAM that I could order, I would be very grateful :) Can't find any in my country, already tried three DDR3L sticks, none of which worked
Geekazine Nothing heavy.. Just browsing on the internet, using word, listen to music, and playing some low demanding games such as Half life, Rollercoaster tycoon 2 etc :)
Great review there.

What's the reason for that line going across the outside of the lid?
As far as I know - design. The top has a bevel, which I believe that is what you are seeing. #thanks for the question.
when booting up the hp logo takes a bit too long to appear for me (around 15s) any ideas ??

Are you asking? It works. If you're doing high-end editing, then you might want to look at something a little beefier.

Not really. It's a few years old, and has a low-powered video card. #Thanks for the question!
Body plastic or aluminum?
Aluminum I believe.
Is it available in i7 processor and 16 gb ram?
Check with HP, this is an old model laptop. There is probably a better version available. #Thanks for the question

get a technical support. one of its fans may be broken, most possibly.
Is this good enough in 2019? :)
Yes, but I don't know what you would be using it for.
