It's a year old. I KNOW!! But that's why I bought it, HP Indonesia lower the price to IDR10.999.000, -, beside that, you got free BB8 Sphero. As Star Wars enthusiast (not gonna say fans, since I just love the movies), it's attract me quite well. In recent day, I talked to my friends about my old notebook's problem. I used it from 2009/2010, brought it to Beijing. Never got problem with it, actually love it. The problem is the aging problem, 2 out of 3 USB connectors already broken, mouse pad not working anymore, getting constantly lagging even after I uninstall many programs and the keyboard keys start wear off. So, I was thinking getting new laptop when I found out HP Indonesia cut the Star Wars Notebook's price off. The normal price of these notebook was IDR13.999.000,- It's moderate gaming laptop, they said. Not superior yet, but still can run game smoothly. And the only game I played on my notebook is The Sims. I can't play Sims 4 on my old notebook, so I couldn't wait to try it on HP Star Wars. Specification :
Since I'm not computer pro, from the regular consumer's point of view, these notebook are really great. Outlook : I love the Star Wars theme, it was excellent sticker finished. It's quite big, so I don't think I will brought these everywhere, just use my tablet or old notebook is enough. Not too heavy for these big 15" notebook. The keyboard's color are gray and red. First time I use it, it's hard to see the red word on top of your keyboard keys. And the keyboard keys got it's back-light, and it was red. Make your laptop pop-up. Star Wars : We can found these notebook filled with anything Star Wars, from comic book to Death Star as recycle bin. Who don't want that as recycle bin, right? First time it was turned on, you will see Kylo Ren staring at you "let these party started!" And yeah, they give you some Star Wars's system sounds and wallpapers, that I love. Gaming : I haven't use these laptop much, except playing Sims 4. The first thing I do with my new notebook (beside installing primary programs) is Sims 4. It's running so smooth, no lag, and i can't stop playing it. Love : It's a big notebook, so you can fit two windows side by side with no worries it's being too small. Great for blogging. Hate : HP put the cooling fan on the right side of the notebook, it's a bad choice when you're left handed and using mouse. The heat are out directly to your hands, make it uncomfortable. There are no num lock light on the keyboard, so you are not directly know if you can type number keypad directly. Conclusion : Once again, I'm not computer pro, for me, these brand new notebook are quite awesome and smooth. I haven't use it much beside playing Sims 4, since I still have my old notebook for everything else. But well lately, as commoner, I don't use laptop that much, I browse and watch youtube with my tablet. I'm not going to bring it everywhere, since it was big and yeah it will scream "geek" to everyone else. Hahaha... You can read full review from CNET with these link. Update (27/08/18) My HP Star wars are officially DEAD! I hate it!! It's only been a year and a half, not even reach two years. It's a waste of money, really. It's suddenly stop working when I was watching Netflix on my PC, I paused the show and went to the kitchen for several minutes, and when I was back, my PC just freeze. I tried to hard reset but nothing happen, only black screen, waited but nothing happen. It did several times until the automatic repair came out, and of course I tried many thing, back up my files, restore, reset, but nothing. For final attempt, I decided to bring it to HP Service Centre, and after patiently waiting for almost a week, they said my PC'S VGA (NVIDIA) was dead, they need to replace all the mainboard. They sent me the bill for almost 75% of my PC's original price. Not worth it. So I decided to decline it and buy a new laptop. Will review it soon!
