    Great for kids homework

    I have never heard anyone complain about HP printer hardware, and this printer meets that high bar. It is surprisingly small and light weight but delivers impressive performance. Some reviews complain about the "intrusive" Instant Ink feature, that requires the user to let the printer make direct contact with HP to order ink and receive updates. I was a little skeptical at first but a close look at what you get made me give it a try. It does seem to be an economical way to buy ink if you can anticipate and manage your usage. It is based on the number of pages printed and not on the amount of ink consumed. New users get the first 3 months and 300 pages free, which includes delivery of one each color and black cartridge in about 10 days after you sign up. What I have yet to determine is if the printer can tell you how many pages you've printed, because if you go over your 30 allowance there is a $1 charge for each 15 page increment after that. So take a close look at the feature and decide if it's right for you. Moving on to the printing, the first page the printer printed was an alignment page. You put that on the scanner bed and the printer aligns the print head. After that I tried scanning a color image and could barely tell the original from the copy. Next was sending an image to the printer from the computer, which meant connecting the two using WiFi. It was a slightly tedious process but one you only need to do once. I found a full size rich in color image and printed it. If I had used glossy paper instead of regular bond paper it would have looked like a photograph. Overall, for the price of printer and ink, I am impressed. I would buy it again.

    Honestly the best laptop I've owned so far. I love it. I'm a university student so I require a computer for a lot of what I do. I love that you can flip it around and turn it into a tablet if you like, It adds uniqueness to it. The screen size is big but that's how I like my computers anyways so that's great (just a personal opinion). It's fast and had enough space on it for music, games, and everything else. Honestly, I don't think I could have gotten a better computer.

    This a beautiful laptop and looks justttttttt like a mac, with the perks of it being windows. I absolutely love it. But, i've recieved two defective ones.. so that is kinda crappy. It also doesn't have a disk drive, or a number key pad..

    Finding a good laptop is always hard, especially looking for one that doesn't not cost you an arm and a leg. The new hp envy 15.6" laptop is a nice laptop but of course does have it's flaws as well as its pro's. The first thing I hate is it has no where to put disks. So there is no watching DVD's on your laptop, and it makes it very hard to install any disc software. Another thing is attaching a wireless printer to the laptop is a little difficult. The laptop is super temperamental to touch on the mouse area as well as the screen of the laptop. The screen of the laptop is touch so if you don't feel like using the keypad to type then you can easily do it on the screen of the laptop but again it is very temperamental to touch. The laptop does come with lots of apps installed into the computer already ex. Netflix, Facebook, YouTube, etc. so it makes finding certain things very easy. A major thing I love is the fan is on the top of the laptop by the speakers, so more hot bottom of your laptop getting super hot or it overheating because there isn't enough circulation. The sleekness of the laptop as well is very nice and up to date and very chic so that's a nice bonus. Overall it is a nice laptop, but save up a couple extra dollars and upgrade to nicer laptop.

    I love my computer, it's quick, efficient, it's red on the bottom, the name of the computer is "Envy"! I don't know, I like that word. Hahaha. I don't know much about computers, but I have had 3 laptops in the last 10 years and this one has been my all time favorite, fast, efficient, and easy!
