Lenovo, please don't buy the HP laptop unless you want a noisy, overheating, cpu throttling laptop.

BTW, The specs on the Lenovo laptop are better than the HP laptop.

Only the old HP laptops were the good ones to buy from, the new ones are crap because of overheating problems.

The HP is better (In specs). But they are known for overheating.

Lenovo all the way.

 

Unless you like your money melting away. (Literally)

Do not get an HP laptop

 

 

 

They universally have woefully inadequate cooling and will be in a constant state of throttling and it will burn itself to death in a year. Get the Lenovo it's better.

The old HP laptops were better because they never had a overheating problem(IMO)

The Elitebooks are great, that's the one thing that HP can actually do something right on their laptops without screwing up.

HP is not better in specs, it has a terrible video card.

Elite books are great, but they are expensive and not for gaming. 

 

HP consumer stuff on the other hand, aka envy line, means they only thing you'll be envying is how cool and quite other brands of laptops are.

Was the 'cool' part also a pun?

That HP isn't a gaming laptop... if you're going to go HP for gaming the only one they do is the Omen.

 

Neither of those are that great. I wouldn't get a gaming laptop with anything less than an 860M.

 

Course, with the links Lenovo has with the Chinese government and HP has to the NSA I can't really recommend either brand but hey ho.

I have an HP ENVY 15 and I have had no problems with it. Also, some Lenovo latops don't allow the GPU to run full speed on battery.

I didn't say all HP laptops are good lol. I know that most HP laptops are crap. The ENVY series seems to be ok tho.
