Review on πŸ’» HP Pavilion x360 14” Touchscreen Laptop: Powerful Performance, Sleek Design, and Enhanced Display by Rusty Heredia

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Let me solve the fingerprint scanner problem. and yes it is a good computer.

First of all, I have to answer all the bad reviews about the lack of a fingerprint reader and a backlit keyboard in this computer. Yes, I believe the video provided shows a fingerprint scanner on a computer. However, the photos do not show this and the specifications below the original photos and item name do not list these features. I was worried I'd end up with a bad computer if people complained that it didn't even have the supposed features, but apart from a company video that seems typical of the HP 360 line, the product description doesn't contain any such claims. I even dialed the model number on other websites to check and NO. I'm convinced that people watched commercial videos without doing their homework. With that said: PROS: - Fast processing - Doesn't overheat - Quiet fan - Keyboard is light and springy, keys aren't deep (although I understand not everyone prefers that) - Easy to find things (I was a Mac person in the last decade so I was expecting to wade through hellish waters) - touchpad is very responsive - touchscreen is very responsive Cons: - resolution/display is good but nothing special - sound is good but my Apple products sound better (of course, and prices vary) - The speakers are arranged in such a way that folding the film/video machine causes the sound to be thrown away from you and somewhat muffled. I'd rather use my iPad to watch movies and this computer to do math. GENERAL INFO: Great computer for the price. I wouldn't recommend it for photographers or gamers, but it's great for students, those who work from home or do general computing work. I was pleasantly surprised at how much I enjoyed it. Maybe not enough to shy away from a Macbook Pro in the future, but as long as I can't save up for one, it's fine. And did I mention the price? Great deal for this kid. Just do your homework before you buy so you don't make the same mistake as others.

Pros
  • Stylish and modern design
Cons
  • Slightly wrinkled
