HP 250 G7 / 255 G7 in-depth review

Extremely budget friendly, a lot of options and potentially powerful - this is what we can extract when seeing the HP 250 G7, knowing its configuration options. Or at least, that's what HP is trying to tell. What is it going to be in reality? We are here to find out. Of course, we should keep in mind the price of this device, so there is no point of being too harsh on this device.This laptop is available with a wide variety of CPUs, coming from Celerons to Pentiums, 7th Gen Core i3-7020U, and the newest Whiskey Lake offerings (by the time of writing the review) - Core i5-8265U and Core i7[...]

Pros

  • Very good price
  • One of the best keyboards for the price
  • Relatively long battery life
  • We didn't detect a conventional use of PWM so it's practically safe to use for long periods of time (BOE NT156FHM-N41 (BOE0687))
  • It's offered with Whiskey Lake CPUs

Cons

  • Poor build materials choice
  • Lack of IPS options (top TN choice has poor contrast and maximum brightness) (BOE NT156FHM-N41 (BOE0687))
  • Clumsy touchpad
