Great potential as entry level simple gaming laptop. With the i7-4510u and the Geforce 840M, 17.3" 1080p touchscreen, 12gb ram, and 2nd HDD/SSD bay to addon/migrate OS to an SSD for easy speed increase, backlight illuminated keyboard is plus as well as beats audio speakers and slick aluminum covering. Now for the negatives: First is the small bubbles inside the glass, clearly a glass manufacturer defect, makes screen look like permanent dust is on screen blackening those arrangement of pixels. It is a $130 fix to replace the glass. as this was suppose to be a manufacturers refurb. i can do nothing but facepalm. horrible quality control. Second is the "control zone" as HP calls it (the mousepad). It had potential as it conforms to ipad/tablet stype control with 2 fingers for right click and 1 finger for left, with pinching, etc for zooming, and 2 fingers for scrolling. Problem with mine is that when u want to physical click the left mouse button, u can physically feel it when clicking the pad (there is no left and right button, but instead the entire pad clicks when pressing the bottom left and right of the pad). However it does not always register as a left or right click and sometimes registers as opposite of what u intended. These are 2 major defects in my opinion which significantly lowers rating. Very sad indeed because on paper this should be a great entry gaming laptop -minus the manufacturing issues (seems to be reoccurring issue with HP products) it would probably get 4.5/5.0 due to fact no ssd or bluray player, with things as i received it though cant give it higher than 1/5.Read full review
Overall I love this laptop for it's aluminum build, crisp 1080p full HD screen, good battery life for such a big laptop, and nice keyboard with back-light. Some cons would be it's heavy for a laptop but it is 17 inch laptop so what can you expect and I don't really use or need the touchscreen for my tastes. Conclusion: I really like it for my needs of entertainment and occasional gaming.

Unfortunately i was only able to use this laptop for a few weeks because my regular PC just came back from the shop. Using this laptop was a very pleasant experience and it ran very smooth.
