(Some information from the Hp Spec as John Lewis spec is inadequate)

I have seen too many dead HPs to ever buy one.

What do you think of the screen? Good viewing angles?

​Do they have it on display? I was going to make the plunge on the HP Omen which has incredible specs for the price but a pee-poor screen

Not sure, bought it blind on-line

If only this was 15.6 screen, heated

Edit, just seen there's others that are on offer

The current Dell 15" 1366x768 screens have a terrible reputation. Massive shame as older ones were pretty decent.

Apologies , I don't know enough about laptops to recommend any but the Dell Inspiron 15 5000 looks good . My main criteria for a laptop is full HD screen and SSD. I do have an upper price limit of 800 pounds so I'm thinking get this or wait for more Easter bargains.
John Lewis is always a plus for me to buy from and I'll try n pop in tomorrow to have a look.

Edit, tbh if it's a full HD, you're not really going to be disappointed unless you need a really acute viewing angle on the screen .

Probably worth adding that it has a 3 year guarantee, as that is really good at this price and usually only on business class machines. Also HP just don't seem to know how to put a laptop together and have it last much more than a year :stuck_out_tongue:

And the £29.95 HP ultrabook laptop sleeve can be added for free (first bundle below product description) :innocent:
