Part of Holiday Deals Day 11, so only good through 12.11.2023

+ $14.99 S/H if not at local warehouse

Soldered RAM, unfortunately, but everything else looks good and soldered RAM is pretty common at this price point (and higher)

(EDIT – posted through the phone app, so I acknowledge that the post text is sparse and the formatting sucks)

For anyone who is sensitive to PWM flickering, Notebookcheck's review states that this particular computer uses PWM flickering at all brightness levels. =(
Let me make this simple:

You have $600 budget. You use laptop for general productivity and media consumption. You need the best screen.

Go for this laptop and don't think twice.
OLED in this segment is crazy, and soldered RAM is not bad when it's this much and this fast. Nice deal

Mine arrived today. For those of you that got this, if you can, download windows 11 via windows media creation tool, and give it a fresh wipe. I tried updating, and it crashed during display driver update, and went to black screen, restart wouldn't fix. Had to restore using key gen, then when i tried to finish updates after restore, i couldn't get the updates to complete, the cumulative 12/2023 update would stay pending restart, and force the laptop to reboot over and over, so i had enough of that, and just wiped it. Make sure you download AT LEAST the HP network driver, cause otherwise you won't be able to finish updating, put it on a USB, same as the w11 drive that your using to format, and when you get to inputs, hit shift, or ctrl f10(11, 8? cant quite remember), and install that network driver to continue. Anyways, i have a clean HP laptop, less HP bloatware. Took ram usage from 8 idle, to about 3.8, so much better.
Same thing happened to mine, did a force shutdown and a restart. Fresh install sounds like a good idea, don't like the bloatware.

Can you please provide more detailed steps or any existing link/video to wipe and install windows 11 ?
Want to try this once I receive mine.

Have a USB plugged into a second computer

Media Creation Tool:
https://www.microsoft.com/softwar.../windows11

Drivers:
https://support.hp.com/us-en/driv...2101718068

Create a bootable Windows 11 drive on the USB, using the first link provided.

Once you've created the USB W11 boot, download the drivers from the second link (i used Windows 11 22H2 as the option, not just Windows 11), and move them to the root of your USB drive. There are 8(sorry, said 6 earlier) different drivers for this model, plus a Bios. You don't need to update the bios, but if you feel it needs it, you can (bios updates are riskier than updating drivers so don't do it unless you see instability that you know is from the bios).

Plug in the USB into the laptop, and spam ESC during boot, and then select boot option, and then boot from USB volume (probably D:/, may be different in your case)

Select Advanced options for Windows installation, and then click on install a new copy of windows.

When you get to drive selection for the windows install, delete ALL of the prior volumes, so you have one unpartitioned drive. Select the unpartitioned drive to install windows on, then proceed with installation.

During installation, when you get to downloading updates, you won't have network drivers, so you won't be able to move past this point without updating drivers.

Hit Shift F10 to open command prompt, and select the volume your USB is under, by typing D: (or whatever drive your USB is)

the drivers you downloaded are executables, which means you only need to type the name of the file (sp148662.exe is the wifi, sp148295.exe is the bluetooth, or vice versa, can't remember which) and the driver will run and install itself. Once your done, you can close out the CMD window.

Continue with installation. If your computer restarts, and goes back to the start of installing windows, just unplug the USB drive and restart the laptop. You can plug it back in when your finished to complete driver installation. It should revert to booting off your main drive once you've started installation, but some devices will prioritize USB for booting, I don't believe this did.

When your finished, open file explorer, and install the rest of the drivers by double clicking on them one by one. Then do your Windows Updates. There is one device that your computer will not recognize without updating the rest of your drivers.

Good luck!

After using it for a full day I ended up returning it. The build quality was great and I loved how fast/snappy it was but I couldn't get over how the fans would kick on every 5 minutes just web browsing. Putting it on efficiency mode didn't help. Also the slightly off centered keyboard messed with my typing but that's something I probably would've gotten used to over time.

For what reason? The item is still available for ordering online now (at increased price obviously) which seems indicating it is still in stock to fulfill existing orders.

Got mine delivered today. Was happy setting it up until I realized that something was off with the trackpad. It would click sometimes but many times, it would get stuck pressed in. I am resetting it and will return it to costco...
Apparently Costco.com had a replacement option so I am giving it another shot at it. If it fails again, then I will just grab the Asus Zenbook deal from Walmart.

Thanks for this. I haven't even opened the box yet for various reasons that have nothing to do with the computer itself, so this sets me up well... as long as I can get a flash drive and another computer to download the boot and driver files, at least.

I noticed the fan noise too but I found there is a big difference between unplugged and plugged in. When unplugged, the fan noise is almost non auditable when browser web and streaming videos. I even installed MS office when unplugged and the fan only turned on a few times during the install. When plugged in, the fan almost immediately kicked in and the laptop if quite warm to the touch.

Then I researched a bit and found the default power plan (balanced) has a big difference in the "processor power management" between plugged and unplugged. When plugged in, the minimal processor state is set at 80% and when on battery, the minimal processor state is set at 5%. For the maximum processor state both are set at 100%. I set the minimal processor state to be 5% when plugged in. Now the laptop is very quiet no matter if I plugged it in. It made a big difference to me. Please give it a try before returning it if this could solve your problem.

To change that, you need to go to Control Panel -> search for "power" -> choose a power plan -> change plan settings -> change advanced power settings -> Processor power management.
