Not Good
Pros: Fast, Decent Screen, Decent Speaker Volume, Durable Exterior *** Newegg customer service is very helpful and cooperative. ***
Cons: Touch pad intermittently doesn't work, recurring strange static sound when listening to music or watching video, keys go into shift lock and number pad stops working, can only type symbols, mouse pad intermittently highlights large areas when trying to click specific areas.
Overall Review: This is my second ProBook 4530s. First one was an i3 which had the same mouse pad problems and also didn't take charge from the power connection. This one I'm reviewing is the ProBook 4530s i5 with fingerprint security. I have to say that I don't have issues with connectivity but there are too many other things that I'm concerned will only get worse. I've only had this laptop for a couple of months. I'm sure that this model is flawed. There aren't too many other reviews to go by so I made the purchase bcuz the price was good for the features. I use it for work; inventory program. Now I have to purchase a new laptop and pay again to redownload my inventory program from the manufacturer. I'm not happy.
