Rated 5 out of 5 by Jenniper from Perfectly Fine I love my new notebook. The only issues I have is with new Windows 11, but I'll get there. Graphics. Sound, camera etc. are great. Battery lasts awhile.

Rated 4 out of 5 by Non-profit Operations from Functional with some weight to it So far, the speed has been good, especially since I tend to have a lot of tabs opened at once! It's been surprisingly easy to navigate compared to other well known devices I've used. It has frozen on me twice and I'm not sure why but it didn't last too long. Sometimes it sounds like it's overheating (can sound like a giant fan). The battery life is pretty short but since I am able to have it connected often, that hasn't presented any problems.

Rated 1 out of 5 by Vaibhav89 from Lags & Hangs The product hangs quite frequently, especially for something bought a month ago.

Rated 2 out of 5 by tsac from new laptop HP 255 G9 purchased on line and did not realize the laptop did not have a cd player. Also the changes made to the basic software cause many issues the previous HP laptop did not have. attempts to correct issues is not possible . HP needs to look back and see how great the older units were and make updates or corrections. Many people i talk to have the same problems and are thinking of not buying HP. I called HP and received no help or replacement suggestions or offers.

Rated 3 out of 5 by JScott1129 from Just ok I wanted a basic laptop just for email and web browsing. I would have rated this 5 stars, except it has locked up solid 3 times due to overheating within a few days. I had to set the fan in BIOS to be on all the time, which has helped so far, but shouldn't have to, since Fan doesn't kick on soon enough to cool it down.

Rated 4 out of 5 by Videografix from Bare-bones, no frills laptop - does the job. We needed a straight-forward , no-frills laptop for a specific application, and the G9 meets those criteria. The maximum internal screen resolution is only 1366x768, which is not great, but it will drive a 1920x1080 external display. The display is large and easy to see, and it does have a USB-C port - which is useful. Overall, it performs as advertised.

When using a universal USB hub, can the monitors be extended (display different views) or does it only allow for monitors to be mirrored (display same view)?

Asked by: amd2024
Hello. Thanks for your question. A universal USB hub can support both extended and mirrored displays, depending on its features. If the hub has video outputs like HDMI or DisplayPort, and supports technologies like DisplayLink, you can extend monitors. Your operating system (Windows/macOS) will let you choose between extended and mirrored modes. You may also want to consider using a universal docking station for better support of extended and mirrored displays, along with additional ports and power supply options.
