Magnificent PC. So far, it is working perfectly and efficiently. The compact form factor is excellent as it takes up very little space and is very lightweight, yet its performance is not compromised. The price I got it for was unbeatable. I use it daily for various tasks, and it gives me no trouble. My only suggestion would be to add one or two 10 Gb USB Type-A ports at the back—even if it meant removing two of the slower ones there or eliminating one from the front. Adding a 10 Gb USB Type-A port to the front would also be very useful. Setup was very easy.

Pros: Excellent performance, sleek design, quiet operation, and incredibly helpful built-in AI features. Cons: None so far! I couldn't be happier with my HP OmniDesk Desktop AI M03-0173t PC. It has absolutely earned a 5 out of 5-star rating from me.

Excellent PC

The HP OmniDesk Desktop AI PC is an absolute stunner — its sleek, modern design is incredibly stylish and elegant, while the ultra-smooth and refined display delivers a truly premium feel. Every time I sit down at this machine, it sparks an exciting burst of inspiration and energy that makes me look forward to working. Thanks to the HP Omni, my daily tasks have become far more creative, efficient, and genuinely enjoyable — “work on HP” is now something I truly love doing!

I always appreciate the quality of HP's computers and was looking to upgrade from my 8-year-old HP machine. This machine has a fast processor, lots of memory and a good sized SSD for a very competitive price. Wireless keyboard is a new feature for me and I really like the weight of it while maintaining a small footprint. Shipping was fast and the purchase experience was fantastic. I will continue to remain loyal to HP.

A lot of things need to work to get the computer to show a spark of life. Why won't the mouse work? No binding instructions. Using my wired mouse and keyboard, discovered that there is a special comms device hidden conveniently inside the mouse. Well hidden. Plug the comms device into the USB port on the computer and there is life. All good but frustrating for ... too long. Otherwise very nice. It would be very helpful to describe how one could add additional SSD memory to use as a backup. The SSD data port is on the motherboard but no guidance for obtaining power,. People want to do this.

Setup and installation of software has gone smoothly. The machine is fast, even with Windows 11. Boot speed is incredibly fast. The main problem is that videos, e.g. from YouTube or other embedded links, randomly freeze the system such that a reboot is required.

Glad I upgraded to this PC. I mainly use it for photo editing and it performs perfectly. The integrated graphics of the Intel 7 Ultra does the job. Added an 8port USB card and that was easy to add and works perfectly. Only minus is all the bloatware that I had to remove.

I don't know if it is a problem with the HP BIOS or Windows 11, but there are multiple problems that are somewhat frustrating. For example, drop down windows sometimes show as normal - black text on a white background. At other times they drop down as a blank white background with no text until the cursor enters the drop down. At still other times the drop down has a black background until the cursor enters the drop down. There are a number of personalization settings that don't stick or randomly change. For the most part the speed and usability is acceptable to good. However the fact that the settings in some cases cannot be controlled and in others change randomly do not inspire confidence. Some programs randomly freeze or do not start properly. Email connections are iffy, as are some internet connections. Again, is it HP, Windows, or even the internet provider? I don't know. What I do know is that I never had any of these problems on my previous desktop (Acer) running Win 8.2 with the same internet provider.

Before putting personal and confidential files on a widows 11 machine, be aware it is for data gathering and your files will not be stored on your computer (even if they think it is theirs, you are renting). Best to disable that profit data stealing enabled disrespect to customers. One drive w a.I.will make them rich and your sap.
