HP 250 G10 / 255 G10 in-depth review
Most people don't need super powerful and expensive laptops for daily or office usage. Nowadays, even most of the low-end CPUs are just fine for normal work if the notebook has a decent amount of RAM and an SSD. The HP 250 G10 is a typical workhorse. It can be configured with 13th Gen U and P-series processor options. There are some Celerons and Pentiums in the mix but we advise you to avoid them since they have just four cores. Most devices rely on an iGPU but if you need more power for graphics-heavy software, you can opt for the optional NVIDIA GeForce MX550.The machine has a full-sized[...]

Apple MacBook Pro 14 (M4 Pro / M4 Max, Late 2024) in-depth review
With the 2024 model of Apple's MacBook Pro 14 you can choose between a 12-core or 14-core M4 Pro processor with a 16 or 20-core GPU respectively, or a 16-core M4 Max with 32-core GPU. As always, the bigger memory and storage options are pricey. However, the base iteration of this machine comes with 24GB of unified RAM. If you aren't a power user, this amount should be sufficient for daily tasks or normal work. If your wallet is wide enough, you could pick a machine with double the memory.The default 512GB SSD seems enough if you don't store too much of photos and videos on it. If you need [...]

Lenovo IdeaPad 1 (15", 2021/22) in-depth review
Lenovo is a master of affordable laptops. While the IdeaPad 1 15 might seem like a drop in the ocean of the company's portfolio, we have a feeling it has a main role in the future sales numbers. If we look at Lenovo's laptops as Game of Thrones characters, the IdeaPad 1 15 will be Bran Stark. It knows that it has to compete with the likes of John Snow (Legion 5), or Daenerys Targaryen (IdeaPad 3) to be the king (or queen), and occupy Sales Landing.And despite there being similarly low-priced options like the V15 or the V155, the IdeaPad 1 15 has one major advantage - the IdeaPad name, whi[...]

Pros

- Cool during extreme load
- SD card reader
- No PWM (Innolux N156HGA-EA3 (CMN15F5))

- It covers only 54% of the sRGB gamut (Innolux N156HGA-EA3 (CMN15F5))
- Not a great performer

HP 15 (15-fc0000, fd0000, hr0000) in-depth review
It's clear like night and day that you don't need a high-end or even a mid-range laptop for normal light tasks. A modest 15W CPU is more than enough if it's accompanied by 16GB of RAM and a decent SSD. The HP 15 (15-fc0000) is an inexpensive device that will do the job for people who want to get a notebook on a budget for browsing the Web and and playing light games from time to time. However, you have to pay attention to the specs before buying because the machines with Zen 2 CPUs are tied with up to 16GB of soldered RAM while the ones with Zen 3 chips rely on a pair of SODIMMs which makes th[...]

Pros
- Clean design
- Good comfort during full loads
- Light (1.60 kg)
- Decent color accuracy with our Design & Office profile (BOE09E2)

- Decent input devices
- 3x USB ports
- The fan isn't noisy even in "Best performance" mode

- Web camera with a privacy shutter
- Low NVMe temperatures
- Lid with a lever design
- Optional fingerprint reader and a 1080p Web camera
- Clear sound quality
- Ryzen 5 7520U can maintain a 3.36 GHz clock even in long loads
- 2x SODIMMs for the Zen 3-based machines
Cons
- Just 1x M.2 slot
- The plastic build could be more stable
- You can't open the lid with one hand
- Rather low SSD speed because of the slow transfer rate of the slot (PCIe 3.0 x2)
- The middle of the keyboard flexes during typing
- Soldered RAM for the laptops with Zen 2 CPUs
- Low sRGB coverage and narrow viewing angles (BOE09E2)

Acer Aspire 3 (A315-24P) in-depth review
Today, we are going to tell you all you need to know about a laptop, which will shatter the entry-level mobile market. Or will it? This question arises with every machine bold enough to make such claims, that's for sure.But there is one particular reason we think this one might fail in its quest (which may be the very reason it succeeds eventually). Precisely, we're talking about the processors of choice. They are the Ryzen 3 7320U, and the Ryzen 5 7520U. Finally, one would say, a Ryzen 7000U CPU to hit the market.As you will learn later on, this is not exactly the case. To make use o[...]

Apple MacBook Air 13 (Early 2025) in-depth review
With any new machine from the Californian giant, everything appears incredibly simple and effortless, and the new M4 MacBook Air is no exception. But as with its predecessors, beneath the polished surface lie hidden pitfalls that you can only uncover in a detailed, independent review like ours. Of course, the machine is fantastic, but from its official presentation, no matter how detailed it may seem, you won't learn about its downsides, or more importantly, how to configure it to get the absolute most for your money.One piece of truly great news is that Apple has finally addressed a major[...]

Pros
- Incredibly fast and responsive M4 performance for everyday use
- Exceptional, all-day battery life
- Completely silent fanless design
- Stunningly thin, light, and premium build quality
- Gorgeous, PWM-free Liquid Retina display
- Supports two external monitors with the lid closed
Cons
- Performance is throttled under sustained heavy loads
- Limited port selection with only two Thunderbolt ports
- Base 256GB SSD is slower than upgraded models
