Performance is admirable - amazing how far i3 processors have come in the 11th generation.
HP Build quality is also not too shabby - definitely way better than the Gateway deals from Walmart. It looks a lot more expensive than it is. Most importantly, the 14" form factor is very portable and the 3 lbs weight makes it super convenient to have around the house.
Upgrade to Win 11 was a breeze and Windows automatically downloaded all drivers including BIOS updates seamlessly - so far the process has been almost Chromebook like which is a huge plus. Also, not a lot of bloatware that I can see - only HP app is the Support Assistant that is fine imo. I'm sure there are other hidden bloatware but none that I've been exposed to as yet.
I've been running a couple of resource intensive apps on it and although I do hear the fan kicking in the bacground, it hasn't gotten too hot - in fact, it's very comfortable to have in my lap without you know worrying about my future generations ;-)
Overall, I'm definitely very impressed by this little chap - definitely way better than my 15" Dell XPS that is heavy (although it is made of aluminum) and BSODs on me all the time.
Let me know if you guys have any questions for me on the specific laptop or experience using it - would be happy to answer any and all qs
This is the superior 11th gen mobile i3 with a 10000 rating at Passmark. Some number of cores and same 10000 as the latest 11th gen i5. I kid you not! .......the i5-1135G7
What the i5 has is superior graphics @ Iris Xe. About 30% better than what the i3-1125G4 has Which iirc are properly called UHD 630 Xe (no Iris)
i5 11th gen mobile and on up have the better Iris graphics...

also 1st one is 299
4 core/8 thread CPU, IPS screen, backlit keyboard ! Decent laptop, good price !
I may swap out the memory to 16GB !
Question: why do a lot of these type of laptops come in Windows S mode? Seems to have more than enough power to run Windows 10, but when it is pre installed with S mode it feels like it is underpowered. Same goes with many of these laptops.
I've been running laptops for 10 years with 1TB HD's.

By the way, I've read that Windows 11 ABSOLUTELY REQUIRES you log into an account... no local accounts like Windows 10. I'd go for the older model and decide on 11 later if the RAM thing didn't matter.
