日本HP Pavilion 15 (15-eg3000) review – offers good balance between comfort and battery life
The HP Pavilion 15 (15-eg3000) is a typical inexpensive daily driver. It offers nothing fancy, you get only the necessary essential extras for normal home or office usage. For starters, the display has a standard aspect ratio of 16:9. Luckily, most panel options are IPS units but there is one TN model in the mix. The latter should be avoided unless you want to buy the most affordable configuration of the series for some reason. By the way, there is a touchscreen variant for those who prefer to use their fingers instead of a mouse.
Power-wise, all looks good – six 13th Gen Intel CPUs are available for configuring. Aside from the base Intel Processor U300 which has just one P core and four E cores, the other processors are powerful enough for daily tasks. Still, if you want a bit more snappy machine, you can pick one with a 28W P-series chip. Since these variants are thirstier, if battery life is what matters the most for you, a 15W U chip will be a much better option for your needs.
The upgradability options are decent and there is no sign of soldered memory which is great. The port selection is fine for that kind of price tag – at least you can rely on one 10 Gbps Type-C port. The connectivity is up to date – Wi-Fi 6 + Bluetooth 5.3 and you get audio by B&O.
