HP 14" Ryzen 3 4GB/128GB - Silver

This is a really good beginner laptop or for someone that just needs to occasionally get online to pay bills, possibly do some work, or stream tv. It would be really great for a student! There is 3 people in my household that use this computer: myself, my boyfriend, and my 7 year old daughter. It work great for all 3 of us. It starts up quickly and easily and gets you going in a matter of just a couple minutes. It is quick to get online and the graphics are excellent. The camera and microphone are awesome and work great! It's you standard basic computer in general but like I said if all you need to do is stream tv, do homework, pay bills, or do minor work things, this is a perfect little computer for all those needs.

I am reviewing the HP 14 Ryzen 3 with 4GB of Ram and 1TB of storage. After receiving, I immediately opened the box and removed the pc and power cord. I first charged the battery before getting started. After turning it on, the initial startup took awhile. It ask to connect to my home network. It connected fast. Then there was the registration and the Window Updates that needed to be downloaded. The updates took some time due to restarting several times, to install the updates. After that I started browsing online sites, I found the pages loaded quick. The main search engine is Microsoft Edge. If you have an account with gmail, just sign in and all of the sites will be there for you. The HD screen is vibrant. The HP 14 has an HD camera, and an internal microphone. There is a wireless antenna as well. On one side is a security cable slot, USB Type-C port, memory card reader. On the other side there are two USB ports, HDMI port, Audio- out for headphone, and Audio-in for microphone in combo jack. I found the HP 14 to be responsive and reliable. The battery lasted on a full charge around 7 hours. It has Bluetooth also. There is not an optical drive. Windows 10 comes preloaded. Ryzen 3 is the type of processor. The only thing I would love to see is a lighted keyboard. I recommend for reliability. It's stylish and only weighs around three pounds.

This is a perfect item for a school kid - to bring to school and back to home for study. Well, it may also be enlisted for internet game use!!! The item weighs just over 4 pounds. Screen is measured as 14 inch and the size of the computer is measured 9 x 12.5" and diagonal is 15 in. It is easy to place in the school backpack. I first fully charged it. The item came with Windows 10 S. It took me about 20 minutes to complete the setup. And I swiftly installed the Windows updates and that took me another 60 mins to complete. That said, the battery has 77% remaining. Good battery. I tried to learn the Windows 10 S and good things are - the windows defender would help act like an antivirus program, so that saved me a license from my Norton account. Also, all programs have to be installed from the Windows store for security reasons. That could be a pain if one wants to install a third party program if the Store did not have it. But by then one can simply switch out to regular Windows 10 and the problem solved The computer has basically all pheripheral ports one needs, except the CD drive. The booting time is fast and that would definitely help keep my kid in focus.

This is a great laptop. It is lightweight, fast, and so compact. I can do everything on this laptop. Not to mention that I love the silver color plus since the keyboard is also silver I can see it so much easier. This is a great laptop. Don't hesitate to buy it!!

This is a fantastic laptop! It is fast, powerful, and compact. It is also lightweight and very easy to set up. The graphics are amazing, and it has the ability to keep up with all of my multitasking needs. It charges incredibly quickly, and I can work on it for a long time before I have to charge it again. It also has incredible sound from such a compact laptop. I am very inpressed with not only the quality of sound, but the sound level itself. I am amazed with how much power is packed into this laptop. Overall, I am very impressed with this laptop and I highly recommend it.

I have been an HP fan since the mid-90's and with good reason - HP always delivers when it comes to quality, performance, innovation, and affordable pricing. This HP Laptop 14 is another example of HP excellence. First, let me just say that I absolutely love it's slim, sleek, and ultra-modern design. Very stylish and chic! Definitely something I wouldn't mind showing off to my co-workers at the office. Lightweight and portable, the HP Laptop 14 also manages to deliver a powerful performance thanks to a super fast AMD Ryzen processor and responsive touchpad. Colors are bright and vivid on the 14-inch diagonal HD display, which makes watching movies and playing games a blast. Feel like video chatting with family or friends? No problem! The HP TrueVision HD Camera with integrated digital microphone and stereo speakers has got you covered, even in low lighting. In fact, the camera is so good in low light conditions that my mom was able to spot my toddler trying to climb out of her crib when she was supposed to be napping during one of our video chats. Needless to say, my little escape artist daughter wasn't too thrilled about being caught on tape and ratted out by grandma, but it certainly saved her from potential disaster. The HP Laptop 14 comes with Windows 10 Home in S mode installed, which is supposed to be a safer and more secure version of Windows 10. I haven't had that much experience with S mode yet, but I really like what I see so far. It definitely loads faster than regular Windows and seems to have fewer bugs. Battery life is great, lasting approximately 7-8 hours before needing to recharge again. Oh, and this thing charges fast! Only took about 30 minutes to go from 15% to 90% again. It boots up pretty fast too, which is a nice bonus and may have something to do with the more streamlined operating system. All in all, I'm extremely happy with my new laptop and plan to continue my love affair with HP for many years to come. HP delivers yet again!

The HP 14 RYZEN 3 4GB/1TB LAPTOP-SILVER is an item I had the chance to review for Walmart Spark Reviewer. I giving this product a 5 star rating because it was delivery earlier than the estimated delivery date. It works like a charm. This is the perfect laptop for anyone who DESPERATELY wants their own computer on the go… It has a bright and powerful display with easy to navigate buttons as well as having USB inputs and HDMI outputs. This laptop has SSD which means it boots up rather quickly instead or a 3 minute boot time.. . It comes with windows 10 which is the simplest to use for newer computer users and the Windows 10 Home brings back the Start Menu from Windows 7 and introduces new features, like the Edge Web browser that lets you markup Web pages on your screen. It works well for basic use such as watching videos on YouTube or Netflix or any other streaming site. With 1TB of storage, wow that is a lot of space…provides massive storage space for huge files, so that you can store important digital data and work your way through it with ease. It gives you enormous space to save all of your files. Enhance the overall performance of the laptop for business, student, daily usage that's like a programmable built desktop. Another thing it's not bulky like other laptops and has a wide screen which is perfect since most movies are shown in wide screen. It is capable of bluetooth and has a headphone jack as well, so no matter the type of headphones you use, they will still work with this laptop. Other features are: 1 x headphone/microphone combo; 2 x USB 3.1 Gen 1 (Data transfer only); 1 x USB 3.1 Type-C? Gen 1 (Data Transfer Only). . Overall it is a good computer/laptop with an AMD Ryzen 3 3200U processor to conquer anything you can try to throw at it.

I want to start off by saying that if you plan on keeping this laptop in "S" mode, and don't plan on doing much more than basic stuff with it, then this laptop will accomplish what you need to do, especially if you are using it for your child's schoolwork. I bought this for my significant other because for the most part she only uses it for Facebook, email, and online shopping. However, she was used to Firebox browser, and I use Macrium Reflect to back up our computers so it was necessary to take it out of "S" mode in order to install these programs because they are not in the Windows Store. I am giving this laptop a 4 star rating because although she loves everything about it (size, appearance, color, battery life etc...) The computer started freezing up after installing Firefox requiring powering off and back on to recover. I started monitoring it in task manager and discovered that it was running using up to 90% of ram, which meant that when she would open a video on Facebook, it would crash the computer. I discovered that running it on Edge would work because it uses less memory, but we were still at about 80% not a whole lot of wiggle room! I needed to add some ram because there is an extra slot on the motherboard for it. Too bad it is basically inacessable to a normal user. I on the other hand have no fear of opening a computer case, and was able to add 4 gb of ddr4 ram for a total of 8 gb. The computer then assigns 2 gb of it to video, and after system used ram you get about 5 gb to work with. Now we have plenty of memory, and we can run whatever we want. No more crashing or freezing! The other issue was that occasionally when scrolling, the screen would go black for a moment, and then return . It turns out that there is a setting in the Radeon Graphics App called Vari-Bright that is enabled by default unless you turn it off, which is what I did, and boom! no more flickering screen. So far, the only issue she has now is with facebook itself, and the scrolling problem with the newsfeed, but that is an issue with facebook itself and not the computer. I will try to update this review as time goes by if anything else pops up.

I ordered this little laptop online for store delivery and everything went smoothly. For the price, this little laptop has fairly power features. If you're looking for a laptop that is for everyday browsing, online banking, some streaming, etc, this is perfect. For more powerful use, such as gaming, you might want to upgrade but like I said, for everyday light to medium tasks, this is ideal! Bigger than a tablet, but a little smaller than a standard laptop and with the same power! PS; You can even use an HDMI cable and plug it into your HDTV for a monitor. I do and I love it! With your HDTV, just change the laptop settings to 1920 x 1080 under display settings-display resolution...and your TV is a great monitor!

Don't buy this laptop. My sister and I both purchased this when school started and we've had nothing but trouble with it. Tried resetting it to factory settings a couple weeks ago and still it moves SO slow. All we were trying to use it for is online homeschooling but it just sits and spins when trying to open websites or open an app. Meanwhile, our other 2 laptops that are both more than 5 years old have no problems. Now I'm having trouble returning it - didn't realize there was a 30 day return policy!
