HP Recommended
Product: HP Pavilion 15 Laptop PC 15-eh2000 (4V3L7AV)
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 11

I have a real problem with the design of the keyboard on the HP Pavilion AMD Ryzen 7 5825U laptop, I purchased two weeks ago.  I've owned HP laptops (iCore) for decades and the Power button has always been located above the rest of the keyboard, by itself,  where it was safe from being pressed by accident.  But for some unknown reason, someone at HP thought it would be a good idea to place the Power key on this Ryzen AMD model in a different location, and where they placed it, is ridiculous.  The Power button is positioned between the Delete key and the Print Screen key, directly above the Backspace key.  For anyone who uses the keyboard for serious writing, the Backspace and Delete keys are ones used frequently while editing manuscripts.  And for those of us who know how to type, we do so without looking at the keys.  Having the Power key near those frequently used keys, is a disaster waiting to happen.  

 

Unfortunately, I didn't notice this idiotic positioning of the Power button before I bought the computer or I would never have bought it.  But your design people seriously need to reevaluate the location of the Power key and MOVE it back to it's original location above the rest of the keyboard where it can't accidentally be pressed.
