| Manufacturer |
HP (Hewlett-Packard) is among the top 3 laptop makers by the world’s market share, besides Dell and Lenovo. HP makes affordable laptops branded simply as HP or HP Essential, the popular OmniBook mainstream consumer laptop and 2-in-1 convertible line, EliteBook and ProBook business laptops, and Omen gaming notebooks. |
|---|---|
| Series |
HP OmniBook laptops are sleek everyday productivity devices. They feature modern processors, long battery life, and built-in Copilot+ AI capabilities on select models. |
| Laptop Type |
Laptop PCs with Windows operating system are the most common notebook computers, followed by MacBooks and Chromebooks. Windows PC laptops offer the widest range of hardware options and price points, giving users more flexibility. The traditional clamshell laptop design is considered to be the standard one, as opposed to 2-in-1 convertibles. |
| Performance |
Laptops with standard performance are those with the widely used mid-range and upper-mid-range processors. They are an excellent choice for daily home and office computing, as well as slightly more demanding tasks like light gaming and light content creation. For hardcore gaming and professional content creation, high-performance laptops are the better fit. |
| Typical Use |
Even the cheapest laptops with basic specs, besides smoother running mid-rangers, are suitable for the common everyday tasks like web browsing, emails, or document editing. Having a powerful and power-hungry laptop just to complete these tasks isn’t necessary. Office and productivity laptop tasks typically involve word and spreadsheet processing, presentations, emailing, web research, and multitasking between business applications. Studying, Schoolwork and Online Education Laptops optimal for studying, schoolwork, and online education offer reliable entry-level and mid-range performance, a good battery life, and support for multitasking and communication in a digital learning environment. Web browsing and social media tasks don’t require high-end specs. They can be completed easily on entry-level and mid-range laptops with good network connectivity. Unless you play the latest AAA games for which you need a gaming laptop, lighter games like Minecraft, Roblox, League of Legends, or Sims, you can run decently well on a regular mid-range laptop. Laptops used for movie watching don’t have to include high-performance components. But, they should offer decent screens with wide viewing angles, such as IPS panels. For professional content creation such as high-resolution photo and video editing or music production, a laptop with high performance is recommended. However, for occasional light content creation tasks like 1080p video and basic photo editing, mid-range performance is sufficient, too. In both cases, laptops used for visual content creation should have at least decent screens. |
| Screen Size |
Besides the traditional 15.6-inch, the 16-inch laptop screen size is among the most popular ones. They both offer a great balance between display size and laptop portability. |
| Screen Resolution |
This screen resolution provides a decent image sharpness and a lot of space on the display for the user interface and programs. It’s similar to the popular Full HD 1920×1080 but a bit taller. These resolutions aren’t as good as the premium-class 4K Ultra HD and similar. |
| Screen Features |
Displays based on IPS technology provide much wider viewing angles than the budget-class TN screens. |
| Processor |
The Intel Core i5-1334U, just like the very similar and slightly faster Intel Core i5-1335U, is a typical mid-range laptop processor. It is an excellent choice for completing the everyday computing tasks easily, without consuming the battery too much. |
| Graphics |
The Intel Iris Xe or simply Intel Xe graphics of the 11th, 12th and 13th Gen Intel Core processors delivers an improved, yet still basic, 3D gaming performance over the widely used Intel UHD. But, it greatly lags behind the gaming-class GPUs like the Nvidia GeForce GTX / RTX series found in gaming-class laptops. Overall, the Iris Xe is suitable only for light gaming. Check out how the Intel Xe compares to other laptop graphics processors on the chart here. |
| RAM Size |
The 8GB RAM size is the recommended minimum in laptop computers. It provides comfortable multi-tasking for the most home and office users, but 16GB is becoming the new standard in 2026. Keep in mind that 8GB may be not enough for some heavier multi-tasking, demanding programs and many newer games. |
| Data Storage |
512GB or larger storage capacity is recommended if you store a lot of large files and install many programs. |
| Keyboard & Touchpad | Keyboard with Dedicated Number Pad These keyboards have a separate numeric pad on the right side. This is ideal for those who type numbers a lot, but it is also useful in some games. Keyboard backlight makes typing in dark easier. Touchpad with Integrated Buttons These touchpads have right click buttons are built into the surface of the touchpad, as opposed to separate physical buttons. |
| Multimedia & Communication | Web Camera in 1080p FHD This is a high laptop web camera resolution in comparison to the common 720p. But, 1080p is low in comparison to common resolutions of modern smartphone front cameras. Stereo Speakers Modern mobile computers usually have built-in stereo speakers. Built-in Microphone The laptop has a built-in microphone, which is a common laptop feature just like web cameras. |
| Networking & Wireless | Wi-Fi 6 802.11AX Wireless The 802.11AX is currently the most used Wi-Fi wireless networking standard. It’s also known as Wi-Fi 6. When connected to 802.11AX-compatible routers, the 802.11AX modules in laptops bring improvements over the older standards in terms of data transfer speeds and multi-device connectivity. In some of the latest laptops, 802.11AX is being replaced by newer 802.11BE standard. Bluetooth Bluetooth enables you to wirelessly connect the computer to Bluetooth peripherals like Bluetooth mice and keyboards, as well as to smartphones, and other compatible devices. |
| Ports & Slots | 2 x USB Type A The laptop has a pair of the traditional USB Type A ports. 2 x USB-C The device has two USB-C ports. HDMI HDMI is a widely used digital video output port. You can find corresponding HDMI input ports on most computer monitors and TVs. Combo 3.5mm Audio Jack This laptop has a standard 3.5mm combo audio jack that supports both headphone output and microphone input simultaneously. |
| Security | Face-Recognition Camera The dedicated infra-red face recognition cameras in laptops are used for Windows Hello log-ins, without password typing. |
| Battery Capacity | 59 WHr Battery |
| Weight | 3.9 lbs |
| Thickness | 0.7 inches |
| Operating System |
Windows 11 Home operating system is designed for everyday users who need a fast, intuitive, and connected computing environment. The Pro version is recommended only for select business users that need extra enterprise features. |
| Other Notable Features |
Customizable laptops allow you to choose different component and feature options before the purchase. |
| Year of Release |
Although not being the latest generation, laptops released in 2024 don’t lag behind much in terms of features and daily computing performance in comparison to their new counterparts. |
| Laptop Condition |
The brand new laptops, as opposed to refurbished, come sealed straight from the manufacturer. They are untouched and in pristine condition. The brand new laptops typically feature the latest hardware and offer full warranties. |
| Warranty |
A one‑year warranty is the most common period for laptops. Longer warranties, such as three years, are considered extended warranties. |
