    Rated 4 out of 5 by Anonymous from The HP Envy Laptop 17-cw1097nr is good, but has some inconveniences. Mostly, I like my HP Envy Laptop 17-cw1097nr, but there are a few problems. There is only one Ctrl button. It is on the left, so I need to use two hands to use Ctrl+Home, which I use frequently. Also, the Function keys are secondary functions. I have to use Ctrl with them. They should be the primary functions of the function keys. If HP wants their new primary functions to be primary, then they should be separate keys, but activating them with the Ctrl would be OK. Next, there is no right-click button with the touch pad. I can left-click by double clicking the pad, but I need a mouse to right-click. I right-click all the time. Finally, the computer loses where I am when typing. Sometimes, it jumps to a spot earlier in my text or it goes to someplace outside my text area. While typing this, the focus jumped down to the Submit button. I also have problems with Windows 11, but that is Microsoft's fault.

    Rated 5 out of 5 by Anonymous from I'm committed to the Envy laptops I'm committed to the Envy laptops and this is my second one. I had the first one for about 8 years and it served me pretty well. I like the 17.3" laptop that's still thin and sleek. I like the big screen and the number pad. I modified the laptop to get a huge SSD and lots of RAM so that it will be speedy for years to come. I have been using mine for about a month now. The only things I've been sad about: (1) I didn't realize I opted for no touchscreen and that's taken getting used to, (2) the speakers could be a bit better on this edition, and (3) the camera quality could be better, too.

    Rated 5 out of 5 by DJ KIM from Why I picked HP Envy laptop 17-cw1097nr. My previous laptop was HP Spectre x360, but this time I chose HP Envy, I don't need touch screen, higher resolution with clear screen is more important. And also, I chose 32GB on board memory. That was very good for the smooth performance. Keyboard is soft and good, but the speaker is not Bang & Olufsen speakers that HP Spectre had it. But laptop speaker is small, I don't see any distinctive difference between old and current model. Overall performance is very satisfactory. I used to run 20 Chrome browser taps and about same number of Bing browser, and I don't see any performance degradation. Same on MS office.

    Rated 2 out of 5 by JesseMar from Not the best support After a two and a half week wait for them to ‘customize’ my computer. I had 10 great days of use. I upgraded the screen to the 4k variant along with upgraded WiFi. I had practically no problems until it randomly shut down and refused to turn on. After finding HP support (with some difficulty) and speaking to a representative, they informed me that I needed to send it to a repair specialist across the country. They did give me the option to pay for expedited shipping which I refused. I received an email stating they received my computer and then support became non-existent for 12 days. I received one phone call asking if they could factory reset my computer, which I obliged. I am now still waiting for them to fix my computer however they have contacted me and set my new arrival date to two weeks away. I believe without expedited shipping.

My low rating is because it freezes often and has to be hard reset. I should have returned it as soon as I noticed the issue, but like I said, it does the work that the others cant handle.

The color is good. I tried to get the screen to stay on longer while plugged in but the power plan does not seem to make a difference. I will search for a fix in my spare time.

    Rated 5 out of 5 by Lee K from Time for an upgrade and this one is nice. My HP envy is really nice. Like most things I would make a few changes. I'm not crazy about the power cord using a USB C Jack. My old HP power cord plugged into the back corner of the laptop and was out of the way. Some USB accessories can't be plugged in to the other Jack because the power cord is in the way. The power button is much more convenient than my old HP, I like that.

For me it is a good balance between a pure gaming laptop and a pure business laptop. The Envy has enough memory and hard drive to run my engineering 3D software and a few games that I like. Also, the Envy is the first laptop that I have owned with a touch screen.

    How is the sound of the laptop, is it loud enough compared with the ones that have the bangs and olufsen speakers, the last hp envy I purchased in 2018 didn't have a good sound

    Asked by: brmatiq
    Thank you for your question! As this question is subjective, this forum cannot answer it properly. What one may find to be great sound, another may not. However, this HP Envy Laptop 17 has Poly Studio sound with dual speakers capable of DTS:X Ultra and has HP Audio Boost. DTS:X Ultra is a technology designed to enhance audio experiences, particularly for gaming and XR, by creating a three-dimensional audio environment. It allows for precise placement and movement of sound effects, providing a more immersive and realistic listening experience.
