There is no touchscreen. Also, HP's website is generic and ambiguous about some other features of the Envy models.There is no VGA output for a second monitor (like I was hoping), but there is an HDMI output.Also, I agree with the earlier comments; this model is *very* fast, and the vendor (Eluktronics) was good, too. They shipped my order within 3 hours of submitting it to Amazon. I don't know if they can always do that, buy I was very happily surprised!

No, it doesn't have touch screen, but the performance is awesome. The shipment was delivered well ahead of time. I highly recommend this model.

No. This computer does NOT have a touch screen; however, the mousing surface works quite well. I prefer a real mouse for use with this computer. The USB ports are very tight. It's hard to pull out USB drives from the USB ports. There are 4 USB 3.0 ports. The computer is super fast and really quiet. The slowest part of this computer is its 5400 RPM hard drive. Even though this computer has a 17" screen at 1080p, the characters on the screen are quite small....Luckily, I got new glasses recently. I have not tried the Blu-Ray drive, so I cannot comment on that part of the computer....Windows 8 is hard to use, but not impossible.Jose No. This computer does NOT have a touch screen; however, the mousing surface works quite well.

No, it doesn't but that wasn't a deciding factor on my decision to purchase. The features and performance (were more important and they) are simply amazing! The seller, Eluktronics, made my transaction a very pleasant one as well. Everything was shipped and received on time as expected! I highly recommend this model! :)

No this one does not have a touch screen on it. If you want the touch screen feature there is a toshiba that is built along the same lines for the same price try and find it at your local best buy

This model does not have a touch screen. Nice computer, not a fan of window 8 so I downloaded the Start8 app and it makes the desktop look identical to Windows 7. It cost maybe $5 and is worth every penny!

Yes, this has a touch screen as indicated by the "T" at the end of the ASUS part number (and the index finger touching the screen in the photograph).

No, it does not. Touch Screens are more expensive , but give a better Windows 8 experience. All this said, at $449---this. Lap Top is a very good value.

This one is not a touchsmart model. If you want a touch screen version, look for the HP ENVY Touchsmart models specifically.

No this laptop is NOT touch screen. The HP Envy Touch Smart Ultrabook is a touch screen though. But even without touch this computer is amazing ;)

No, it does not. It has a wireless keyboard and a "magic mouse", but no touch screen.

Norma: No, this laptop does not have a touch screen. It has a large touchpad... but not a touchscreen.

i assume the question is "Does it come with touch screen". the answer is NO. it does not come with Touch screen. it comes with keyboard and a good LCD screen.the keyboard is not backlit (assuming that's what u wanted )

No not this model. I believe they have one very similar to this with touch-screen though. Otherwise, this is a very nice laptop.
949570
yes it does, however I can't figure out how to activate the touch screen feature. I am not using the key board and mouse they provided, could that be it? I contacted ASUS and they finally got back to me with an apology they were celebrating Chinese NY....and to do a hard reset. I just paid to have the Tech company set up my home office network and I am not going to do a hard reset!

No it's not a touch screen. But it has the windows 8 tiles that makes it look like some of the other touch screens.
962297
The one I bought does not. And it's problem, because Windows 8 is awkward without a touchscreen.

Hi Ali, No, this is not a touchscreen computer but a standard one . You need a mouse or use the touch pad .

Yes, is a touch screen, BUT it is very slow, the batery is very very bad and you cand find a better computer in another brand

No, this computer does not have a touch screen. But windows 8.1 makes regular desktop use similar to windows 7 as opposed to windows 8.
