Question: How is the keyboard and touchpad function. I use the touchpad instead of a mouse.  I have always loved the smoothness of the HP keyboards.  Does this meet with expectations?
Document: I like the graphics which are sharp and the hard drive  The large screen is nice What I dont like is Windows 8 very confusing to use Hard to exit out of things To move to a different program you have to hold the mouse arrow on a certain area which doesnt always come up ie like a touch screen other than the windows program I dont like because it is not so user friendly  Ive had it a month and still say it is confusing
I was very impressed with the overall quality and performance of this laptop. My only complaint is that Windows 8 needs further refinement on the part of Microsoft. This is not a touch screen but that is easily handled by the touchpad on the keyboard. Windows 8 has a steep learning curve and I still find myself watching YouTube videos to try and figure out how to use the software. I give the laptop a 5 but take away one star for the software.
And the size of the touchpad has been a problem 4 me anyway...due 2 tremors I'm unable 2 use a mouse and I only 1 hand of use so the size is frustrating. I've used a number of the programs and all perform A1! I also luv the glassy screen, colors r rich and brilliant...and HP'S COOLSENSE is one super addition 4 someone like me who's on the laptop 18& hrs. daily. A BIG 10 RATING on recommending this grrr8 laptop! :)))
Outstanding great LapTop  Price was great I always use Amazon for my electronic needs  I also have a HP wireless printer that I got directly from HP.Thanks
I have always liked HP products. There are many good things about this computer, but Windows 8 is terrible! I don't like the format at all, and many times it skips backward or closes the app. This was a very nice gift from my children, but Windows 8 makes it miserable to use. I'm not a computer guru, but I'm certainly computer literate after many years of use in my accounting positions. Now, in my retirement, I just want a computer that's useful and enjoyable.
Those with large fingers would most likely have a challenge on their hands. Smaller arrow keys, etc. After a month I am constantly hitting the wrong keys and need to correct.Older versions of Microsoft Office will probably NOT work here. Tried to load Office 2000....no dice. Using Open Office instead.In a nutshell, a good pc. 4 stars because of keyboard challenges.ADDENDUM #1.
Perfect fit for our TV. The HDMI capability really enhances everything we watch. Nice to use all of the TV instead of just the middle.
nice full size laptop (will use it instead of a desktop), only issue is with Windows 8 (you lose too much control), slowly been removing unwanted programs
When you opened a file it did what you expected. With windows 8 you have to mess around for 10 minuted just to figure out how to open it or why is it not doing what it should. Windows 8 was designed for Microsofts new tablet, instead of just offering windows 7 again for the laptops they dumped windows 8 onto them and in my opinion took a lot of good laptops and made them a pain to use. I am not impressed with Windows 8 at for use on a laptop by any means.
Not my usual 15. something screen. The only things I do not like is that the Bluetooth was really hard to get up and going, Norton 360 won't let me use license I just renewed less than a month ago and It's Big, but that's my fault for not measuring my old one before I ordered this one. If anyone knows ho to lock the touchpad PLEASE comment and let me know.
Answer: great no problem best computer I have had
