HP Pavilion 17z-ak000 (A9-9420, Radeon 530) Laptop Review

 

A snail's pace. Stoney Ridge is bottom of the barrel when it comes to overall performance. The AMD option may save a few bucks here and there, but the sluggish responsiveness is a very high price to pay.

full performance on battery power ; removable battery ; no CPU throttling ; wide color gamut ; decent speakers ; optical drive ; low price

slow primary HDD; very slow system performance ; below average battery life; small battery capacity ; not as power efficient as latest Intel offerings ; inconsistent performance in games ; loud fan noise under load ; weak CPU performance

The AMD-powered Pavilion notebooks have all been a test of patience. Not only is performance slow, but applications take far too long to launch each and every time. No one wants to wait 6+ seconds to launch a Word document only to wait another 6+...

second HP

 

My first HP is the 17" pavilion with AMD processing power, max RAM and plenty of battery life too, I love my HP so much I ordered the 17z for a work computer--so much power to do all that I require at work. Thanks HP.

Great computer-very fast shipping

 

I ordered this computer after my old 15" Pavilion from 2008 died a couple of months ago. I went with the bigger screen because I like to play those point and click games and (let's be honest, none of us are getting any younger) my eyes aren't as sharp...

Beautiful Laptop

 

I just received my laptop on 2/8/18 and I am glad that I made the purchase. It has the keyboard layout that I like as well as the large screen. I plan to use this laptop for church taking minutes in meetings. I know that this is overkill for note...

Great lap top! Repeat HP customer too.

 

I finally decided to buy a new laptop. HP was my first choice. My HP Compac 17" with Vista was still going strong, but one of the hinges finally broke, so it was always open. This new HP is so fine! Great sound, bright screen, back lighting on the...

It meets our requirements.

 

Upgraded to QuadCore CPU, wish it had 7200 RPM Drive, it still performs well with 8GB RAM

It seems like a very good product to me.

 

It seems very good to me (but then a again my kids say that I am computer illiterate and I wont deny that) but it does meet all of my requirements and then some. I just wish that it came with paper instructions and not have to look up everything on the...
