Review on 💻 HP 22-inch All-in-One Desktop Computer, AMD Athlon Silver 3050U Processor, 4 GB RAM, 256 GB SSD, Windows 10 Home (22-dd0010, White) - Efficient & Stylish Snow White Desktop by Kevin Greer

Overall I'd say this HP all-in-one is a good value package, especially if you go for the SSD version (like me). most of the midrange processor. Lots of storage, wireless connectivity, even the DVD drive I wanted! I got this to upgrade an old PC/monitor/speaker setup and save space on my desk for recording etc. And it's great for that. I didn't buy it to play, but I have to admit that it can play some newer games if they have the option to turn the graphics down a bit. (I'm running World of Warships and it's running fine - nice surprise!) That being said, it won't be a good choice for anyone looking for excellence in a particular area - graphics, gaming, audio entertainment. In those areas it's just "OK". Sometimes I fire up Pandora or Revain Music and it's fine, but the speakers aren't designed for loud and deep music. The camera is good for a Zoom meeting, but grainy and low-resolution. The screen was an unexpected bonus at this price point; it is sharp, with good color and excellent brightness. I often use it at around 75% brightness. Otherwise, the keyboard is great and the connections (USB, HDMI, headphones) are fine. Like I said, for the price everything is perfect! For less than $500 and a decent candy bar package with no clutter of individual components, I'm happy with it. The only thing I would complain about is the noise! As other reviewers have noted, this computer makes a constant whining noise. It's not a blowing noise like a big fan blowing in a hot high-end PC, but a groaning noise that goes up and down all the time, regardless of whether you're running anything or not. I've heard of hot PCs and even built PCs that needed extra cooling due to powerful graphics card etc. That is different. My unit has a few feet of open air around it, it's clean and not clogged at all, but it's been producing that high and low whine from day one. If you are concerned about such things, I would look elsewhere. Although I have excellent hearing, I'm used to it and just ignore it. When I make music, I forget. But it's there, even if I'm a few feet away, if there's no TV or music in the room, I can hear it.
