日本HP EliteBook 650 G10 review – offers capable cooling solution and long battery life
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.

Here, the Core i5-1335U can maintain impressively high CPU clocks in short and long loads. The temperatures in the first two columns are high but in longer stress, the processor settles at 81°C which is okay.
Gaming comfort
The HP Power Manager app lacks power presets. You can control the machine’s performance via the default Windows modes. Still, the noise under max load is low and at the same time, the keyboard isn’t scorching hot to the touch.
Battery
Now, we conduct the battery tests with 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. Our notebook is equipped with a 51.3Wh battery pack. It lasts for 11 hours and 7 minutes of Web browsing, or 7 hours and 9 minutes of video playback.
In order to simulate real-life conditions, we used our own script for automatic web browsing through over 70 websites.
For every test like this, we use the same video in HD.
