HP 14 Laptop, AMD Ryzen 5 5500U, 8 GB RAM, 256 GB SSD Storage, 14-inch Full HD Display, Windows 10 Home, Thin & Portable, Micro-edge & Anti-glare Screen, Long Battery Life (14-fq1021nr, 2021)

I bought the laptop with another 8 GB ddr4 3200 mhz RAM, the 5500u Ryzen runs a lot better with dual channel and with high speed RAM (3200). With an external app you can change the TDP of the CPU from 15w to 25w easily with no danger. I puts mine to 30w and the temps are quite reasonable and the performance is 40% better. The thing that i highly dislike is the lack of BIOS settings for increasing VRAM on graphics..you cant get more than 512mb and the Vega 7 chip of the 5500u can handle 2gb of VRAM on others laptops. Only because HP put that bottle neck on it.

It’s definitely a functional laptop. Was it worth $500? No. It rarely connects to internet and constantly allows other devices to take priority, it is already snapping on its hinges, and the touchpad never stops sticking. I can not stress enough how NOT worth your money this laptop is.

Cant handle any USB devices, I thought it was the devices until I used them on my other HP and Mac. This is just trash. I had to get something in a quick amount of time to replace my other HP, Im done with PC laptops. Im ready to get back on the desk top horse. Im gonna throw this out the window as soon as I get a desktop.

This is the cheapest 5 series CPU laptop (Intel I5 or Amd Ryzen 5) I could find from a manufacturer that is reputable after nearly a month of laptop shopping (I bought it at a discounted price and not refurbished). So far I love the screen, it is full HD (No touchscreen) and is not grainy like the 768p screens. I use mine to record games with a capture card and it handles it like a champ. Even though it only has an integrated GPU, its quite decent if you dont plan on playing any GPU heavy or high graphics games, it can even handle capture card recording on its own for a very long time. It is very fast. Though there are times when it shuts off the network adapter for WI-FI and refuses to find network connections for the Internet, this might just be a driver update issue that can be fixed with a Windows update that I have yet to install, but I am not sure. This is the only issue I have. If I keep having this problems, I will update the review. But for now, I am happy with it, especially for just browsing and casual recording of games.

I expected it to have free microsoft offices apps but the unit only has the free trial version. but the unit is a good so far.

Great speed, many great features.

Purchase It for my son to replace his old laptop. He didnt have any complaints, so I think this computer should be fine.

Hands down the worst laptop Ive ever experienced using

Wasnt what I expected

Laptop muy rapida, hermoso diseño
