@@ComputerStuff I am not associated with HP in any way. As a consumer (count my family as well) and a sys-admin for a small group, I find HP PCs at least as good as others (Lenovo/Dell), and better than the Asus/Acer I used.
You're not alone! I'm on my x360 with the 8th Gen Core i7 from 2017 and it's been a great laptop for what I paid for it. It was a complete impulse buy while I shopped around my local Bargain Hunt's electronics section and picked it up for around $600 at the time they were going for like $1000 new if I recall correctly. It's showing it's age with a degraded battery and SATA Hard Disk for storage but it's a runner for sure.
Actually, this video talked me out of it. I had an HP years ago and returned it within a week because the build quality was so bad. But then I started seeing videos on latest 2in1's and people rave about the HP. But @computerstuff seems have some street cred when it comes to computer repair. I am sticking with Dell... or maybe I will try an ASUS.
This is crazy to hear considering I was looking at getting another HP Envy to replace my old one that I’ve had for over 5 yrs because it got dropped. Zero issues with old one. Don’t use it for work, just home stuff, email web browsing and I run a program X-lights which I’ve been told can be hardware intensive.
Sadly, I was warned of the hinge problem and have done my homework - sad, my ten-year old envy has sturdy hinges and worked fantastically for all these years.
So... basically this entire video is a made up with no substance whatsoever? Well, I salute you for your audacity I guess, I'll definitely remeber your name the next time I look for tech review to be extra careful.

I hate HP nearly as much as you do! I bought several rip-offs from them over the years before learning my lesson! Most recently, in late 2022 the dreaded HP 15 series efxxxxx- AMD supposedly 16, but says 14 RAM. It has never worked. It would shut down randomly. Drove me nuts until Finally, I reseated the screen, which was one problem. But, then it shut down during a recovery attempt and it not only didn't recover, but it erased some of the thumb drive, or I did somehow. But now it's a 750. Shell without drivers that sits on my desk. Since my desktop Dell just went down, i have no pc at all now. I bought the HP as a back-up. HP won't help in any way:(
Its a shame to hear HP has so many issues. I think their build quality used to be better or i am just lucky. I have an Envy m6 that i have owned for about 11 years. I have abused this thing for every bit of those years. It pretty much runs constantly while I am home and all night while i sleep playing youtube. I was terrible about cleaning it a long time ago and it shut down to overheating multiple times because of it. Dropped it directly face open onto a night stand before. Its super outdated at this point but it has outlasted any bit of technology i have ever owned. I have been wanting to upgrade but I know nothing on the market is going to endure what this thing has.
As a high school student, this laptop is actually a waste, It may work well on the first 2 to 5 weeks but after that, it is way DOWN BAD. After almost 3 months of use, I can’t even play Roblox ( 33fps on lowest graphic of an average roblox game )and have heavily keyboard delays on it no matter what you are doing.
Thank you comments for saving me some time. Knew this guy was full of it when the first thing he says is "HP copied Apple's look by using black keys... Thanks for listening HP and finally adding the black keys I rant about". I us an HP with the silver keys and wish it had black keys. Love my HP Envy 16.
I don’t understand. You say I’m full of it but then you agree that the computer should have black keys. Don’t get me wrong anybody that loves their HP Envy 16 is incapable of formulating a coherent thought, still this one threw me.
lol I bought one and it didn’t last a week I had to bring it back. I got the 2023 model which is good but the battery life is meh. So after I replace 2024 I had to listen to my family gloat that I should have gotten an apple before 2024 HP Envy. I’m a bit relieved that I wasn’t the only one who had a problem.
I am watching this video on the hp envy lol but the only bad thing I would say about it is the battery life is ass... but otherwise its a nice laptop, almost had it now for a year
@@ComputerStuff Yes next time you review this please say the battery life is horrible because it loses 10% every 10 minutes other wise its a good laptop
The ram upgradeability is not a "design cue" they took from Apple, all the manufacturer are doing the same thing, it's called LPDDR memory, supposedly it's more energy efficient, but at what cost!
I was looking for a successor of my old HP laptop, but I guess I'll switch over to Dell. I saw they got pretty good built quality, specs and a nice Oled display. I kinda had to chuckle how affectionately you were ranting about HP. But it seems like they went quite downhill indeed.
@@ComputerStuff I'll surely take your advice. And it seems like my Husband agrees on that too (Only hearing the name made him gag lol) Any experience with more modular laptops such as Framework?
@@HomelessShoe If you're looking for a 2 in 1 platform generally speaking Lenovo's Yoga series has solid premium options. ASUS also has their Zenbooks which are great for 2 in 1 however depending on where you live their customer service can be questionable comparatively. I like Dell but their 2 in 1s suffer a bit comparatively.
In my experience, HP sucks and his reviews are vey accurate. HP doesn't give a crap. You can't even get to a human and they are letting Chinese markets out cheap parts in their cheap shells and selling their name. They don't even TRY to put out a product with pride. They don't care what you get or how much it cost you.
Had a envy for 5 years now literally switching it out for a Lenovo yoga tried repairing the envy as much as I can but screen problems and loud fans trying to stop the over heating is too unbearable
I am an interior designer student and I don’t know what laptop buy ( I will use adobe and other heavy programs). I saw your video on de Dell Inspiron 16 2-1 and I think I’m going for that one but I’m not sure…I need help
Can't go wrong with an Inspiron 16 or Yoga for interior design use. heavy programs you may want to get a model that has a dedicated graphics card e.g. Nvidia.
This laptop was an intel one. You never buy these with intel! Cmom 😅 they cost atleast 300 usd more and have less battery time and are not good multitasker
I can confirm it's unrepairable. Terrible product. My HP ENVY x360 Laptop - 13-ay0001's USB-C port failed, and fixing it requires a $700 motherboard replacement-basically the price of a new laptop. HP is off my list for good.
Hi, i am planning to buy Ultra 7, 32Gb, 1TB SSD config model for HP Envy x360, what's your suggestion. Instead of that what is other options? For Lenovo Yoga it seems RAM soldered
You’re correct the ram is soldered on in Lenovo, which is a dire shame. Have you considered a Dell XPS or Inspiron 16+? I have found better success in these platforms. Even an Asus vevo book is a fabulous option, but some of those have soldered ran as well.
I bought a MacBook but I’m having buyers remorse buying such an expensive laptop for college. I seen this on sale at Best Buy for $499 and was going to swap it out
Hey, Thanks for letting me know but what if i am getting HP - Envy 2-in-1 14" 2K Touch-Screen Laptop - AMD Ryzen 5 - 16GB Memory - 512GB SSD - Glacier Silver for 380 bucks?
Need a 2 in 1 that is reliable, has awesome drawing capabilities/pen, windows, i-7, preferably 2 thunderbolt or type c high speed usb- hdmi. 16 gb ddr5, 1 tb drive, all for around $800-$1000- any recommendations? Oh, one question too, maybe the pen doesn't need to be so great, but plugging something like a drawing tab,et I to the machine would have its own pen, so I guess that would offset the issue if the laptop pen isn't so great?
Hi Chris, thanks for the heads up, thought this laptop looked good for 900 dollars, but you let me know if that price is good for it, if not I might just wait out for the OLED variant for the Dell XPS 13 plus to come back in stock on their website since I can get it around the same price with the code I've got for it.
Haha i didnt buy this laptop, it was given to me since Officeworks dropped my old laptop and they compensated by giving me this laptop!! Been more than happy with this new one since day 1.
I can not comprehend how anyone would every buy anything from Lenovo when they've been busted multiple times installing root kits. How is Lenovo still in business when they've repeatedly demonstrated they're untrustworthy?
Sir, I believe you that HP is a steaming pile of trash. My only option is an X360 or a Dell Inspiron 7430 2 in 1. Will the Dell last more than 2 weeks before it breaks down like the garbage HP? Or is it worse? Thank you.
thank you so much for this video i was just about to buy this laptop too. I was thinking of getting the LENOVO Yoga 7 14" 2 in 1 Laptop - Ryzen 7, 512 GB SSD. I’ve heard it doesnt have the later CPU like HP does with the 6000 series. But i’m pretty stuck what do you think or any alternatives you could recommend?😊
I like the Yoga's. The difference in CPUs are so negligible in terms of power I doubt you'd notice any practical difference. If you want latest and greatest though you can check out Dells Insp 16 / XPS or ASUS higher end Vivo series and those would have the next gens.
@@ComputerStuff You even agreed with me though. You edited in an extra minute of you speaking saying how the rest of the video was just you complaining, and should probably add some much needed context.
@@nintendofreak11 The context: this computer is no good. Find better alternatives. If you want a more in-depth review you can check out a slew of our HP videos on this channel :)
hey man I had the 2021 version and it was amazing no problems at all and still held up! I now switched but damn that laptop was very sleek and premium and literally did everything even emulate some PS3 games it was the i7 11th gen one
Resonates with me as I've had loads of problems with my 360. Avoid. P.S. I wish the language was cleaner on this because I'd have shared it, it is so on-target.
@@_xd6681 Because they're not top 5. Their OLED screens have weird ghosting issues, reliability is questionable, and warranty support is harder to get ahold of than Lenovo and Dell.
Okay I have given your opinion a point that's convincing, so can you recommend a laptop with similar price with hp envy and abit better specs, quality and is upgradable and so on? Also something that can actually help in academics more inclined to paper works and performance of laptop?
Hiii…i’m a fashion designer and trying to buy a laptop but truly my mind is blowing now and don’t know what to buy plz help me😭 I wanted to buy this but just saw your review Should i buy macbook?
It’s more premium yes. It’s a Mercedes whereas the Inspiron is a Honda Civic. But like a Mercedes you’ll be left with a huge bill post warranty and it will spend most of its time in the service center. Jk love u @mercedes
Hi hoping you can reply but im a computer science college student looking for a good laptop 16gb ram and over 500gb of storage doesnt matter what budget. What would you recommend?
Perhaps I wasn’t clear in the video. We get more Envy’s in than any other computer in our shop. And it’s not because they are more popular - it’s because they break more. Anyone with an HP can tell you their customer service is non existent. Feel free to watch our “don’t buy an HP” video and see the countless bad experiences. And yes, everyone is praising it because they are either paid, sponsored, or using them short term. But buy one! It won’t affect my life even a smidge.
Glad I watched this video. I was going to buy HP. I seen alot of review videos saying they are good for content creators but I guess there probably sponsored videos. Have you any recommendations? I’m going to be doing a lot of video editing and streaming.
Almost guarantee'd sponsored. HP pays more money into their marketing budget than they do R&D. You think about the XPS or ThinkPad? Really anything with a dedicated graphics card should do you good.
I'm looking to get my girlfriend a new laptop and so far I'm leaning towards a lenovo or a galaxy laptop, as she needs it for college and university but she loves to do digital art so I'm looking for a laptop that can do both, any suggestions
this guy just hates HP for some reason. however, I have a bunch of issues with my similar laptop. 3 shipments to HP and 1 last one ( I hope ) to Costco Warranty services for a motherboard replacement.
I do hate HP. I offer other videos as to why. Short answer, they make unreliable products and have awful customer service. I have tons of experience with their products and customer service so my opinions, while anecdotal, are coming from ACTUAL experiences so when I tell people not to buy an HP it’s so they can filter through all of the paid for and sponsored videos on the internet. One is better off w dell lenovo apple or Asus.
I recommend whichever 360 that has an AMD CPU. This laptop, the older model with Ryzen 4000 my mom's still rocking. I believe the problem was the Intel 😊
Hi, is there a laptop with the same or similar components to the dell inspiron 16 plus but with a touchscreen, for around the same price or slightly more expensive
Hello, I am from Bangladesh. I don't know mutch about laptops. I was about to go to the store to buy hp envy x360 15 today but then i saw this video. It was really tough to manage the money for this laptop and i really can't waste the money. Can you please recommend me any good laptop for me. I wished to get a 2 in 1 15 inch laptop and minimum 512 gb ssd and my budget is roughly 900 dollar although it is going to cost me around 1200 dollars in my country. I will use is for study , freelancing and play a little games with friends sometimes. Please recommend me something that i can use peacefully please 🙏🙏🙏 and really sorry for the poor English. Please help me.
I saw that you answer all the comments, what do you recommend with an OLED screen with good resolution, 16g of RAM and 16"/15"? As cheap as possible... Non-gamer if possible... I know there are a lot of demands to ask for a low price xd.
We try to engage our audience as best as possible! I don't know if you're going to get all of that in one low price package. OLED especially. You may want to look into ACER deals. Dell's have great screens but they're not OLED. Samsungs have OLEDs but they are crappy computers otherwise. Long and short, best bang for your buck is going to come from Dell, ACER in this respect. I wouldn't prioritize OLED - I dont think it'll enhance your experience as much as one would hope.
I bought this thing a few years ago and have never had a problem with it but if you’re a computer nerd, it’s gonna be underpowered but for basic people like me that are just using it for basic bitch stuff it’s not an issue
@@ComputerStuffAnd on the 8th day we all learn that your channel still sucks. Your videos aren't going to get enough views, you still gotta have a regular job. And all you had to do was just review the stupid product. But no, you just had to suck on Apple's® little worm instead of giving an "unbiased" review. There are millions of channels better than yours.
show me on this doll where did HP tou...... nevermind honestly the last time i had an hp laptop was in the compaq era (the laptop still works but since it is almost 15 years old, it is just collecting dust), so I am not really sure, however, this is the second video I've seen this week saying HP are shit, the other one was by alex ziskind, thanks for the warning.
I'd look at other alternatives for gaming laptops. Alienware or Lenovo Legion - we had an omen in for review a few months ago and it... no surprise... broke... wouldn't boot up, we got a replacement, then that one had some boot issues too.
Been abusing the hp envy machines for past 7 years and never have i ever encountered anything this apple shill is saying. The only thing you can roast hp on is for having bad hinge design for a couple years which they removed in 2022 and came up with the gear mechanism they have now. If someone gave me the highest end macbook for free id still pay for the hp because i want to actually do stuff on my computer instead of having it sit there and look pretty
If someone gave you the highest end MacBook for free you'd still pay for the HP? Congratulations on ruining your credebility to report anything reasonable, logical, or intellectual. You can't afford to do it on your own, so go ahead and youtube MacBook Pro M4 vs (insert any CPU here) and see where the benchmarks fall. Get out my comment feed, moron.
@ComputerStuff I have it. as a school student i use this laptop for my work and the battery life is phenomenal. also I can use it for gaming and it runs smooth. the ports on the laptop allow me to plug in a keyboard and a mouse. The 2 in 1 feature is great if I want to watch young Sheldon on Netflix I can switch to tent mode, if I want to play some games with my mates from school I can plug in my mouse and start gaming, and if I have schoolwork I have to get done, I can keep laptop mode, if I feel like drawing I can switch to tablet mode.
The only reason your dissing this laptop is because you have a problem with laptops, reviewers have to take in the fact that midlife adults aren't the only people using this laptop, this laptop has the perfect integrity and design to be one or the best laptop for school, battery life in insanely good, 2 in 1 feature is easy to access, you get those cool looks when you turn your laptop into tent mode, the screen may not be great but who needs a bright screen that will melt your eyeballs.

So after I replace 2024 I had to listen to my family gloat that I should have gotten an apple before 2024 HP Envy. I’m a bit relieved that I wasn’t the only one who had a problem.
I have so many clients bring these in for issues. It's sad. Good luck with your tech hunt!
I am watching this video on the hp envy lol but the only bad thing I would say about it is the battery life is ass... but otherwise its a nice laptop, almost had it now for a year
Glad to hear you're having a good experience with yours!
@@ComputerStuff Yes next time you review this please say the battery life is horrible because it loses 10% every 10 minutes other wise its a good laptop
The ram upgradeability is not a "design cue" they took from Apple, all the manufacturer are doing the same thing, it's called LPDDR memory, supposedly it's more energy efficient, but at what cost!
you are correct, a lot of manufacturers are doing this. Still though - apple started the trend. Hence, they took the design cue from Apple.
Don't hold back. Tell us how you really feel ;)
I could lament all day! :P
I was looking for a successor of my old HP laptop, but I guess I'll switch over to Dell.
I saw they got pretty good built quality, specs and a nice Oled display.
I kinda had to chuckle how affectionately you were ranting about HP. But it seems like they went quite downhill indeed.
lol, thanks for watching. I strongly urge you to check out a different brand. Good luck with your computer search.
@@ComputerStuff I'll surely take your advice. And it seems like my Husband agrees on that too (Only hearing the name made him gag lol)
Any experience with more modular laptops such as Framework?
@@HomelessShoe If you're looking for a 2 in 1 platform generally speaking Lenovo's Yoga series has solid premium options. ASUS also has their Zenbooks which are great for 2 in 1 however depending on where you live their customer service can be questionable comparatively. I like Dell but their 2 in 1s suffer a bit comparatively.
Man, hp must have said No to something really important to you 😄
In my experience, HP sucks and his reviews are vey accurate. HP doesn't give a crap. You can't even get to a human and they are letting Chinese markets out cheap parts in their cheap shells and selling their name. They don't even TRY to put out a product with pride. They don't care what you get or how much it cost you.
All I asked for was a slice of pie! 😩
He must have asked for a working wifi connection then. HP loves saying no to that.
Had a envy for 5 years now literally switching it out for a Lenovo yoga tried repairing the envy as much as I can but screen problems and loud fans trying to stop the over heating is too unbearable
Thanks for sharing!
I am an interior designer student and I don’t know what laptop buy ( I will use adobe and other heavy programs). I saw your video on de Dell Inspiron 16 2-1 and I think I’m going for that one but I’m not sure…I need help
Can't go wrong with an Inspiron 16 or Yoga for interior design use. heavy programs you may want to get a model that has a dedicated graphics card e.g. Nvidia.
This laptop was an intel one. You never buy these with intel! Cmom 😅 they cost atleast 300 usd more and have less battery time and are not good multitasker
I can confirm it's unrepairable. Terrible product. My HP ENVY x360 Laptop - 13-ay0001's USB-C port failed, and fixing it requires a $700 motherboard replacement-basically the price of a new laptop. HP is off my list for good.
Appreciate you sharing your experience.
Hi, i am planning to buy Ultra 7, 32Gb, 1TB SSD config model for HP Envy x360, what's your suggestion. Instead of that what is other options? For Lenovo Yoga it seems RAM soldered
You’re correct the ram is soldered on in Lenovo, which is a dire shame. Have you considered a Dell XPS or Inspiron 16+? I have found better success in these platforms. Even an Asus vevo book is a fabulous option, but some of those have soldered ran as well.
I bought a MacBook but I’m having buyers remorse buying such an expensive laptop for college. I seen this on sale at Best Buy for $499 and was going to swap it out
I'd stick with your MacBook. Not worth going to this computer even for $499.
Hey, Thanks for letting me know but what if i am getting HP - Envy 2-in-1 14" 2K Touch-Screen Laptop - AMD Ryzen 5 - 16GB Memory - 512GB SSD - Glacier Silver for 380 bucks?
$380 is a steal. Do it.
@@ComputerStuff Mine is the same, but ryzen 7, 1TB SSD for $660. Worth it?
I’ve had a middle of the road experience with it…mainly audio and fan issues
Thank you for commenting your experience.
Need a 2 in 1 that is reliable, has awesome drawing capabilities/pen, windows, i-7, preferably 2 thunderbolt or type c high speed usb- hdmi. 16 gb ddr5, 1 tb drive, all for around $800-$1000- any recommendations? Oh, one question too, maybe the pen doesn't need to be so great, but plugging something like a drawing tab,et I to the machine would have its own pen, so I guess that would offset the issue if the laptop pen isn't so great?
Check out Lenovo Yoga!
Thanks you for the suggestion
Hi Chris, thanks for the heads up, thought this laptop looked good for 900 dollars, but you let me know if that price is good for it, if not I might just wait out for the OLED variant for the Dell XPS 13 plus to come back in stock on their website since I can get it around the same price with the code I've got for it.
OLED XPS 13 would be my choice! Good luck!
Haha i didnt buy this laptop, it was given to me since Officeworks dropped my old laptop and they compensated by giving me this laptop!! Been more than happy with this new one since day 1.
Glad you like it.
I clean the charging ports and it does not charge. I even get dust on the swab. And when I see no more dust, it still does NOT charge!
Can you use any of the other USB-C ports to charge?
@@ComputerStuff yep. But it still does not charge.
@@Beam16Offical Sounds like the motherboard may be toast :\
@@ComputerStuff danm
I can not comprehend how anyone would every buy anything from Lenovo when they've been busted multiple times installing root kits. How is Lenovo still in business when they've repeatedly demonstrated they're untrustworthy?
Perhaps I'm mistaken, but wasn't that like, 7 years ago? And I believe they have settled on the class action.
@@ComputerStuffTo paraphrase the renowned philosopher Georgeous Walkious Bushington, "Fool me once... can't fool me again."
Fair enough but Mike if root kits ethics and privacy are your concerns, never read the HP ToS 😂
@@ComputerStuff Not a problem, I _can't_ read!
Sir, I believe you that HP is a steaming pile of trash. My only option is an X360 or a Dell Inspiron 7430 2 in 1. Will the Dell last more than 2 weeks before it breaks down like the garbage HP? Or is it worse? Thank you.
I think a Dell would last you longer than the HP. I genuinely believe that. And even if it doesn't, Dell's warranty support is vastly superior to HPs.
thank you so much for this video i was just about to buy this laptop too. I was thinking of getting the LENOVO Yoga 7 14" 2 in 1 Laptop - Ryzen 7, 512 GB SSD. I’ve heard it doesnt have the later CPU like HP does with the 6000 series. But i’m pretty stuck what do you think or any alternatives you could recommend?😊
I like the Yoga's. The difference in CPUs are so negligible in terms of power I doubt you'd notice any practical difference. If you want latest and greatest though you can check out Dells Insp 16 / XPS or ASUS higher end Vivo series and those would have the next gens.
6 minutes and 51 seconds of blabbering. dude isnt even showing the features hes just saying its trash on repeat
Exactly. Thanks for watching!
Old man yells at cloud. What a poorly written review (overview?)
Does 'no BS reviewing' boil down to ranting?
Move along. You're entitled to your opinion, no matter how wrong it is.
@@ComputerStuff You even agreed with me though. You edited in an extra minute of you speaking saying how the rest of the video was just you complaining, and should probably add some much needed context.
@@nintendofreak11 The context: this computer is no good. Find better alternatives. If you want a more in-depth review you can check out a slew of our HP videos on this channel :)
Well how about you recommending an equal laptop???
Good point. I recommend Lenovo Yoga or Dell Inspiron 2 in 1 over this.
Guys, I think this review might be a little bit biased
Yeah, HP paid me a lot of money for the publicity.
hey man I had the 2021 version and it was amazing no problems at all and still held up! I now switched but damn that laptop was very sleek and premium and literally did everything even emulate some PS3 games it was the i7 11th gen one
I'm glad you liked it and had a good experience with it.
Resonates with me as I've had loads of problems with my 360. Avoid.
P.S. I wish the language was cleaner on this because I'd have shared it, it is so on-target.
Don’t I beep it out? 🤐
what are your top 5 laptop brands?
Dell, Lenovo, Apple, ASUS, Alienware in no particular order
@@ComputerStuffdid bro get fired from hp😂
@@ComputerStuff why is samsung not on the list?
@@BirdyBloxMM2 I did. I got caught with the CEOs mistress...
@@_xd6681 Because they're not top 5. Their OLED screens have weird ghosting issues, reliability is questionable, and warranty support is harder to get ahold of than Lenovo and Dell.
Okay I have given your opinion a point that's convincing, so can you recommend a laptop with similar price with hp envy and abit better specs, quality and is upgradable and so on? Also something that can actually help in academics more inclined to paper works and performance of laptop?
Yoga, XPS, or ASUS Vivobooks (higher end models) all better options than HP Envy.
@@ComputerStuff thanks mate I'll look unto that
Hiii…i’m a fashion designer and trying to buy a laptop but truly my mind is blowing now and don’t know what to buy plz help me😭
I wanted to buy this but just saw your review
Should i buy macbook?
Yes. If you can afford a MacBook - just buy the MacBook - especially if you're in fashion design.
@@ComputerStuff thankks for replying.I can’t afford the pro or the latest ones .is it air ok?!what ram do you recommend?
@@mahaziyaei Yes Air's are great. You won't have issue with Air. 16GB of RAM.
Ok but is it better than a Dell inspirion?
It’s more premium yes. It’s a Mercedes whereas the Inspiron is a Honda Civic.
But like a Mercedes you’ll be left with a huge bill post warranty and it will spend most of its time in the service center.
Jk love u @mercedes
Hi hoping you can reply but im a computer science college student looking for a good laptop 16gb ram and over 500gb of storage doesnt matter what budget. What would you recommend?
Check out Dell Inspiron 16
I’d like to believe you, but you really don’t have much evidence and there are a lot more videos saying it’s one of the best of the year.
Perhaps I wasn’t clear in the video.
We get more Envy’s in than any other computer in our shop. And it’s not because they are more popular - it’s because they break more.
Anyone with an HP can tell you their customer service is non existent. Feel free to watch our “don’t buy an HP” video and see the countless bad experiences.
And yes, everyone is praising it because they are either paid, sponsored, or using them short term.
But buy one! It won’t affect my life even a smidge.
Hp: WTF how dare him say that about our laptop
They don't want this smoke.
I’ve had many HP’s and they were way better than my MacBook lol
Find that hard to believe but glad you’ve had a good experience. Most don’t.
man i just bought this brand new for 750 havent opened it yet should i return it?😂
I would, yes. Not worth the potential headache when there are better options from ASUS Dell and Lenovo.
Glad I watched this video. I was going to buy HP. I seen alot of review videos saying they are good for content creators but I guess there probably sponsored videos. Have you any recommendations? I’m going to be doing a lot of video editing and streaming.
Almost guarantee'd sponsored. HP pays more money into their marketing budget than they do R&D. You think about the XPS or ThinkPad? Really anything with a dedicated graphics card should do you good.
@@ComputerStuff thanks for the feedback I’ll look into these options. Good to find a page that gives an honest review. Subbed 👍
Many thanks for your VERY important review!
My pleasure!
I'm looking to get my girlfriend a new laptop and so far I'm leaning towards a lenovo or a galaxy laptop, as she needs it for college and university but she loves to do digital art so I'm looking for a laptop that can do both, any suggestions
Lenovo is good choice. Would go Lenovo over galaxy.
this guy just hates HP for some reason. however, I have a bunch of issues with my similar laptop. 3 shipments to HP and 1 last one ( I hope ) to Costco Warranty services for a motherboard replacement.
I do hate HP. I offer other videos as to why. Short answer, they make unreliable products and have awful customer service. I have tons of experience with their products and customer service so my opinions, while anecdotal, are coming from ACTUAL experiences so when I tell people not to buy an HP it’s so they can filter through all of the paid for and sponsored videos on the internet. One is better off w dell lenovo apple or Asus.
"... until you remember it's a Hewlett ******* Packard" LOL
My man! As always, appreciate your support!
Should i go for Lenovo flex 5 Ryzen 7
Yes I like the Lenovo Flex. Solid option.
First time I've ever seen one of your "reviews". I liked it about as much as you like HP.
And yet you still did me a favor by commenting. Thank you.
What laptop do you recommend for school but also gaming (literally only Roblox) that’s a 2 in 1 like this one?
Maybe a Lenovo Yoga with a dedicated graphics card. Either that or a Dell with new Intel chips.
I recommend whichever 360 that has an AMD CPU. This laptop, the older model with Ryzen 4000 my mom's still rocking. I believe the problem was the Intel 😊
@@immanuelhavneraas I disagree. The problem is the laptop design. And HP. Intel, while behind the curve, makes decent enough chips.
@@ComputerStuff could you send a link to one that you suggest i'm struggling trying to find one
You should have gotten an AMD!!
Dont do Intel, they cost atleast 200usd more and have shorter battery time and worse multitask
While I like AMD, this is not an AMD vs Intel problem.
Is the Microsoft surface go 3 laptop good or should I geta Lenovo laptop like the ideapad or yoga?
Lenovo. Surface Go's are notoriously unreliable. We have seen a lot of issues in our shop with them.
@@ComputerStuff thank you !
Hi, is there a laptop with the same or similar components to the dell inspiron 16 plus but with a touchscreen, for around the same price or slightly more expensive
Yes! Check out the Yoga 7i! It has a 16" display and is a 2 in 1 touch.
@@ComputerStuff ok thank you
@@ComputerStuff there's another option with a better graphics card?
@@markilemarki How about an XPS 16? They have a model with a UHD touch and an RTX 4070. Lots of horsepower.
Lenovo thinkbook 15 G5 Amd Ryzen 5 7530U or Acer Aspire 3 Intel Core i5-1235U ?
My money on ThinkBook
waht about HP Envy x360 2-in-1 Laptop 14-fc0097nr?
NO Envy.
Hello, I am from Bangladesh. I don't know mutch about laptops. I was about to go to the store to buy hp envy x360 15 today but then i saw this video. It was really tough to manage the money for this laptop and i really can't waste the money. Can you please recommend me any good laptop for me. I wished to get a 2 in 1 15 inch laptop and minimum 512 gb ssd and my budget is roughly 900 dollar although it is going to cost me around 1200 dollars in my country. I will use is for study , freelancing and play a little games with friends sometimes. Please recommend me something that i can use peacefully please 🙏🙏🙏 and really sorry for the poor English. Please help me.
Dells Inspiron series or Lenovo Yogas. Asian markets tend to do well with ASUS products as well which are well made.
I saw that you answer all the comments, what do you recommend with an OLED screen with good resolution, 16g of RAM and 16"/15"?
As cheap as possible... Non-gamer if possible... I know there are a lot of demands to ask for a low price xd.
We try to engage our audience as best as possible!
I don't know if you're going to get all of that in one low price package. OLED especially. You may want to look into ACER deals. Dell's have great screens but they're not OLED. Samsungs have OLEDs but they are crappy computers otherwise.
Long and short, best bang for your buck is going to come from Dell, ACER in this respect. I wouldn't prioritize OLED - I dont think it'll enhance your experience as much as one would hope.
I bought this thing a few years ago and have never had a problem with it but if you’re a computer nerd, it’s gonna be underpowered but for basic people like me that are just using it for basic bitch stuff it’s not an issue
lol

@ComputerStuff Its fine. That's on me. Here's hoping I can get it repaired.
show me on this doll where did HP tou...... nevermind
honestly the last time i had an hp laptop was in the compaq era (the laptop still works but since it is almost 15 years old, it is just collecting dust), so I am not really sure, however, this is the second video I've seen this week saying HP are shit, the other one was by alex ziskind, thanks for the warning.
I have tons of experience with these products. I wouldn’t be making this video if there weren’t tons of HP users who have had similar experiences.
What about hp omen ??
I'd look at other alternatives for gaming laptops. Alienware or Lenovo Legion - we had an omen in for review a few months ago and it... no surprise... broke... wouldn't boot up, we got a replacement, then that one had some boot issues too.
what was this video even about?
Your wife leaving you for another man.

Been abusing the hp envy machines for past 7 years and never have i ever encountered anything this apple shill is saying. The only thing you can roast hp on is for having bad hinge design for a couple years which they removed in 2022 and came up with the gear mechanism they have now. If someone gave me the highest end macbook for free id still pay for the hp because i want to actually do stuff on my computer instead of having it sit there and look pretty
If someone gave you the highest end MacBook for free you'd still pay for the HP? Congratulations on ruining your credebility to report anything reasonable, logical, or intellectual. You can't afford to do it on your own, so go ahead and youtube MacBook Pro M4 vs (insert any CPU here) and see where the benchmarks fall. Get out my comment feed, moron.
the laptop is actually good
No.
@ComputerStuff I have it. as a school student i use this laptop for my work and the battery life is phenomenal. also I can use it for gaming and it runs smooth. the ports on the laptop allow me to plug in a keyboard and a mouse. The 2 in 1 feature is great if I want to watch young Sheldon on Netflix I can switch to tent mode, if I want to play some games with my mates from school I can plug in my mouse and start gaming, and if I have schoolwork I have to get done, I can keep laptop mode, if I feel like drawing I can switch to tablet mode.
The only reason your dissing this laptop is because you have a problem with laptops, reviewers have to take in the fact that midlife adults aren't the only people using this laptop, this laptop has the perfect integrity and design to be one or the best laptop for school, battery life in insanely good, 2 in 1 feature is easy to access, you get those cool looks when you turn your laptop into tent mode, the screen may not be great but who needs a bright screen that will melt your eyeballs.
