The flaws of this computer are:
1) Only USB-C ports (not even a headphone jack)
2) Weird shortcut buttons on the right offset the keyboard slightly making touch typing a bit of a learning curve (also the keyboard shortcuts are all worthless)
3) HP tried to go 2016 MacBook Pro four years after MacBook Pros realized it wasn't a good idea
However, for $620 all of these issues are tiny.
The build quality is EXCELLENT. They really did get MacBook Pro level fit and finish. I specifically wanted an unibody chassis and this computer is $500 cheaper than pretty much any other comparable build.
All USB-C ports are thunderbolt, have displayport out, and can charge the computer. This was a big deal for me as my staff use USB-C docks and they beat the snot out of the ports. They now have three ports they can break before the computer has to be taken out of service.
Overall size is really in the sweet spot. The touchpad is excellent. The keyboard is decent (minus the weird offset).
I'm half tempted to order a couple more to have in inventory as they're just such nice machines for this price.
