HP Notebook - 17-by0016cy
Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

I purchased 2 of the same HP laptops Dec. 2019.  They are the worst laptops I ever had in my life.  I paid $2,000 Dec. 2019 for these laptops and they are totally useless.  

 

The hinges on my laptop completely broke off a couple of weeks ago and the screen separated from the body.  I brought it in for repair and was told it's not worth repairing, all the plastic around the hinge bolts was shattered and the battery had 3 bubbles in it and were likely to leak.  They were able to extract my data for a total cost of $275.00.

 

Both of these laptops have AMD A9-9425 RADEON R5, 5 COMPUTE CORES 2C+3G 3.10 GHz processors.  At first my broken laptop ran great, but my wife's always ran slow.  In any case I am using my wife's HP since mine is useless and came to find out the processor in this laptop is not support for a Windows 11 upgrade.  

 

Not for nothing, but after my experience with these 2 HP laptops and the printer I have, I will never purchase an HP product again and I am going to make sure everyone who asks me for a recommendation knows that HP is at the bottom of my list.  I also see it's impossible to contact HP unless I pay them for their time.  With those 2 factors in mind, they lost what would have been a customer for life.

I am going to purchase a new ASUS laptop for myself as they provide a solid product that I have never had an issue with, customer support is outstanding, plus you get more for your money. 

 

My rant is over.

Welcome to the HP Support Community!

 

I want to thank you for taking the time to speak to us today.

I have brought your issue to the attention of an appropriate team within HP. They will likely request information from you in order to look up your case details or product serial number. Please look for a private message from an identified HP contact. Additionally, keep in mind not to publicly post personal information (serial numbers and case details).

If you are unfamiliar with how the Community's private message capability works, you can learn about that

Thank you for visiting the HP Support Community.
