thank you for this video!
Talking about security, I'd miss information about TPM. If you want to unlock fully encrypted storage with fingerprint scanner it's crucial.
HP makes Masterpeaces , functional long Lasting and with Style Desing like no others Nice👍
Nice video. Does it have glossy display?
Do you think this laptop with 256 ssd and 4g in graphic card would run good games?
Good video but why is the video blurred everyone the user is using it when the keyboard is lit up?
Does this laptop compatible with m.2 intell 600p ssd, thinking about an upgrade because mine is without ssd.. ;(

HP made it optional unfortunately. Meaning you have to ask the seller if you want to buy one on the second hand market. Or order one with the optional backlit keys
Its not an HDMI port but a Display port Instead

Your keyboard may fail and the motherboard may start to fail. Do Google and you will see so many people complaining with no fix except replacing the motherboard or the keyboard

If there is no HDMI port then I can use the VGA port to combine my projector yes. I guess this should have Bluetooth also
Why not support bluetooth? Any body can help me for that issue,because I already got one.Thanks
Thank you for this lovely review. I think the biggest problems I've seen in these notebooks is that they seriously thermal throttle and that the SIM card function is often disabled when there's a cumulative Windows update.

Correction. There is no HDMI port. Yes there is a display port
I just bought one of these for $50 refurbished though a partnership with my ISP and all of the COVID relief the US government passed. It's a nice little machine for that price. The BIOS has a lot of weird security though... so I couldn't get Linux or Chrome OS Flex to boot... so Windows 10 it is...

It’s a great laptop, presently using it for coding. Found the keys on this to be nicer than the newer M2 MacBook Pro so there’s that. All metal build. The speakers aren’t that loud and you can’t game on it but it’s great for all programming and text related tasks and other cpu intensive programs. Not mind-blowing but still worth every penny. Windows 11 runs great on it, but you need to mess with TPM to make Win11 work on it.

Bishnu Shrestha just about anything you can do from a USB type A port. There are generational differences but they are functionally the same in terms of use. Think of use-c at the future interface, as time passes more and more things are using this port design over usb-a. The 840 did not get thunderbolt until the G5 and this is the G3, thunderbolt uses the usb-c interface but is much faster and supported things like graphics card due to be connected to the PCIe rails. Not exactly part of your question but I think it’s really good info to have.
