I JUST RECEIVED MY HP ENVY LAPTOP 17T-CG100 TODAY 3/2/2021 AFTER WAITING ALMOST 3 MONTHS TO RECEIVE BASED ON BUILDING IT. WHEN I TURNED ON THE CAMERA AND VIDEO RECORDER I WAS SHOCKED TO FIND FUZZY SCREEN AND STATIC. THE VISUAL IS HORRIBLE. I ALMOST CRIED!!! I RETURNED A LENOVO BASED ON PICTURE QUALITY AND THOUGHT BUILDING A COMPUTER WITH 1080P WOULD GIVE ME AT LEAST 1080P FOR A CAMERA!!!! THAT IS NOT THE CASE. THE HIGHEST QUALITY ON THIS LAPTOP CAMERA IS 720P. IT IS BEYOND TERRIBLE. I AM ANGRY AND PISSED.
WHAT IS THE SOLUTION TO THIS BEFORE I RETURN THIS CUSTOM BUILT LAPTOP? I CAN NOT USE THIS CAMERA FOR WORK. WHAT A WASTE OF TIME AND MONEY!
