Everyday laptop for students and office users
The HP 15 runs on a 10th Gen Intel Core i3-1005G1 dual-core processor with a base speed of 1.20 GHz and a turbo up to 3.40 GHz. It ships with 8 GB of memory and a 256 GB solid-state drive. The 15.6-inch HD display has a 1366 x 768 resolution, 220 nits brightness and 45% NTSC colour coverage. Integrated Intel UHD Graphics 620 handles video playback and light productivity. Windows 10 Home in S mode is pre-installed and can be switched to full Windows 10 Home.
Silver chassis with micro-edge display
The laptop measures 14.11 x 9.53 x 0.71 inches and weighs 3.73 pounds. Its BrightView micro-edge panel reduces bezel width for a more modern look. Connectivity includes one USB 3.1 Gen 1 Type-C port, two USB 3.1 Gen 1 Type-A ports, HDMI 1.4b, a headphone/microphone combo jack, an AC smart-pin connector and an SD card reader. Bluetooth and Wi-Fi are built in. A 720p webcam sits above the screen; there is no backlit keyboard or fingerprint reader.
Upgrade from slower hard-drive systems
The solid-state drive cuts boot and application load times compared with mechanical drives. Eight gigabytes of RAM keeps multiple browser tabs and office apps responsive. Buyers who need a dedicated graphics chip, a higher-resolution panel, more than 256 GB of storage or a backlit keyboard should look elsewhere. The S-mode operating system restricts installs to the Microsoft Store until switched out.
