HP 250 G10 review – Balancing Comfort and Cooling Efficiency
Temperatures and comfort, Battery Life
Max CPU load
In this test we use 100% on the CPU cores, monitoring their frequencies and chip temperature. The first column shows a computer’s reaction to a short load (2-10 seconds), the second column simulates a serious task (between 15 and 30 seconds), and the third column is a good indicator of how good the laptop is for long loads such as video rendering.

No matter the modest-looking cooling solution, the CPU can maintain high P and E core clocks in any kind of load. The temperatures are normal.
Comfort during full load
The cooling fan isn’t noisy under heavy processor stress. It’s audible but not intrusive. The keyboard becomes a bit warm but not too hot for standard usage. If you disable the “Fan always on” option in the BIOS, the device will be dead silent in light tasks or idle state.
Battery
Now, we conduct the battery tests with the Windows Better performance setting turned on, screen brightness adjusted to 120 nits and all other programs turned off except for the one we are testing the notebook with. This laptop comes with a 41Wh battery pack. It lasts for 8 hours and 20 minutes of Web browsing or 7 hours and 42 minutes of video playback. To achieve that, you have to apply the Balanced preset in the Windows “Power & Battery” menu and disable the “Fan always on” function in the BIOS.
Brightness: 180 nits; Display Mode: SDR
Time to Full Discharge: Higher is Better
In order to simulate real-life conditions, we used our own script for automatic web browsing through over 70 websites.
