Is this laptop worth the price tag?

Or

Is there a better laptop you would recommend for a similar price tag?

I'm partial to HP products and looking at the specs with the price tag....it's a great laptop for that price. I would classify it in the upper mid class range. A basic no frills laptop with some decent hardware specs.

Seems good value to me , Not so keen on Currys though .

I think it's a good laptop for the price :) just remember to remove the bloatware if you do buy it, for instance replace Norton with MSE and Malwarebytes.

Yes, it depends on how experienced you already are with Windows 8, if they intend to buy the laptop then it may be a good idea to start learning some of the functions from here:
