Design and construction

HP doesn’t specify what kind of materials they are using for the build. We are almost sure that the lid and bottom plate are made of plastic. The laptop features a two-tone color design – the lid is a bit darker compared to the base. The look of the notebook is stealthy, with rounded edges, and with minimal branding except for the big glossy HP logo.

The lid flexes badly and it can’t opened with a single hand because the hinges are very stiff. The base bends even while typing, especially the keyboard deck. At least the dimensions are good – 1.52 kg of weight and 18.6 mm profile thickness.

The bezels around the panel are thin-ish excluding the bottom one. Above the display, you can see the 720p Web camera with temporal noise reduction. If you want a crisper image during video calls, there is an optional 1080p model.

The machine has the so-called elevated design, so the back of the device will be lifted very slightly when the lid almost reaches its maximum angle of opening,

The keyboard has big keycaps and a NumPad section. The key travel is long and the feedback is clicky which is pretty comfortable for long typing sessions. The backlight and the spill resistance are optional so if you need these extras, you have to pay more.

The touchpad is surprisingly smooth and accurate for this price class. Its only downside is the loud clicking noise during usage.

The view of the bottom plate is business as usual – two rubber feet, two speaker cutouts, and a decently-sized ventilation grill. The heat is pushed through a vent on the back of the laptop so part of the hot air is reaching the display when the CPU is loaded at max.

Ports

On the left, there is a USB Type-A 3.2 (Gen. 1) port, an HDMI 1.4b, a USB Type-C 3.2 (Gen. 1) port, and an Audio combo jack. On the right, you get the power plug, and a USB Type-A 3.2 (Gen. 1) port.
