HPENVY Desktop Computer, Intel Core i7-10700, 16 GB RAM, 1 TB Hard Drive & 512 GB SSD Storage, Windows 10 Pro (TE01-1254, 2020 Model)

Having had the best luck with HP products over the years there was no question in my mind what brand I'd purchase when I decided to get a brand new desktop [I've been using primarily refurbs the last few years] .. and as expected, I'm glad that I stuck with HP. Out of the box this desktop has more than enough processing power for the average user, though I'm not sure that I'd recommend it for intense gaming as the power supply & graphics are a little on the weak side for that sort of thing. I do a lot of video editing and this system works well for what I do [primarily under 1 min videos] but anyone needing super high quality [professional] videos you'll want to go with the TE01-1020 model and upgrade the video card.The speed of this computer is quite fast, and doesn't skip a beat when the turbo processor kicks in [the base is2.9GHz] up to 4.8GHz ..ALSO [and this is very important if you're planning to switch to Windows 11], out of the box this model DOES meet the requirements for Windows 11 [I'm one of the beta testers] due to begin rolling out in early October 2021 ... and I'll also note that as well as this PC performs out of the box, the upgrades in W11 make this PC perform even better.Overall, this is a great computer for the average user. It's not loaded down with bloatware, HP support has an app preloaded that is actually very useful, and unwanted preinstalled apps are easily removed.Anyone shopping around for a new system at a reasonable price [especially for the purpose of running Windows 11] should definitely take a look at this one!

The HP Envy Te01-1022 arrived on my doorstep about a week ago.Took it out of the box, plugged it all in and pressed the power button.Beep-Beep-Beep (repeatedly) with a blank monitor. Turned it off, checked the installation. and turned it back on. Same beeping pattern with a blank monitor.Those out there who are computer savvy are probably saying, "It's a bad RAM stick, or one (or both) of the RAM sticks need to be reseated." You are absolutely correct.Before I endured the hassle and returned this computer, both 8 Gig RAM sticks were removed and carefully reseated. The computer booted right up and has worked perfectly ever since.I was immediately thoroughly impressed with this machine. Super fast and completely silent.My previous computer, also an HP (Pavillion), which I purchased in 2011 and still runs great, came with Windows 7, so getting acquainted with Windows 10 Pro took me a day or so (hey, what can I say - I'm an old guy), but I am fully up to speed with Windows 10 Pro at this point.I am not a hard core gamer so this computer more than serves my needs quite well. However, it's my guess that this computer would handle most games quite well.Would I recommend the HP Envy TE01-1022 to others ? Absolutely.

Intelligent choices made by Amazon in constructing a good general purpose PC. I suspect it is not optimal for gaming as you might have to change the power supply and video card, but for everything else, including SW development, it is excellent.I had problems with my unit and learned that when a PC is new and within the time window to return it, do not mess with Customer Service, return it and buy a new one.My NEW Envy was locking. (Had to do a hard reset to recover control.) I trusted HP was professional and had my interest at heart. I will NOT make that mistake again. They had me mail my PC to them. I expected a new motherboard or just a new PC. Instead they replaced the fan. This means that my NEW unit was stressed thermally with an unknown long term effect -- it might fail after the warranty period because of the stress.The whole process took about a month. (Diagnosis with a tech on-line, mail box here, mail PC there, wait, fix, mail PC back) only to find that the DVD drive door was broken. New claim (even though I emailed HP same day it was returned.) Then mail box here, mail PC there, Mail back fairly quickly this time. Now, here's the second rub. The original door had a small spring installed making it work nicely. This spring cannot be replaced manually, so it was mailed back with a new door, but no spring (takes automated machinery to insert that spring.)So I lost over a month of usage, HP did not even offer to extend the warranty to cover the down time. The unit was stressed thermally to an unknown effect. The door works, but not as nicely as the original.So am I pleased with HP? Furious is a better term. I own four HP PCs (can supply serial numbers on demand) and an HP Deskjet printer. Over the years I have owned many more HP PCs and printers. I like HP equipment. BUT I now recommend that if anything appears wrong within the 'return' period, return it immediately and buy another. You will have less down time, less fuss, and a better result.
