Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I concur with Ms. Philpott -- Before purchasing a G60 ANYWHERE, you should know that there are serious issues with the internal microphone and external microphone jack. The sound cuts in and out, most often completely failing. There is quite a discussion taking place on the HP forum boards about it. People are upset, disgusted, and downright angry.
Because the problem affects both the internal and external microphones, using the mic jack will not fix the problem. Some people have resorted to using USB microphones to get around the issue, but are not happy that they have to buy a piece of equipment to work around something that should just work...as advertised.
If you don't care about using a microphone for Skype calls or other recording activities, then you won't care that the microphone doesn't work. There are many of us, though, who feel we bought defective laptops.
Do research. Check the HP forums. Be aware of what you are purchasing.
I have no beef with any business selling the G60 Series of laptops unless they are aware of the problem and continue to sell them without informing customers of a known issue. I have no proof any business is doing this, and will not make any accusations that this is happening. Businesses must rely on customer input and product recall notifications from manufacturers. If they have not been made aware by HP or have not had more than a few customer complaints, they are not going to stop selling the G60-535DX -- or any other G60 Series laptop with sound issues.
Make sure you know what you are getting by doing research. The HP forums will tell you all you need to know.
