What Buyers Say
HP Pavilion 15.6" HP Laptop Silver 2023
57 out of 100 low confidence 7 reviews
This laptop receives mixed feedback. Many users praise its performance, large keyboard with number pad, clear screen, and value for money. However, several critical issues are reported: USB ports incompatible with monitors, exaggerated battery life (under 3 hours), a pre-activated warranty suggesting a used unit sold as new, and an out-of-box failure where the BIOS does not detect the boot device. While some find it a solid business machine, reliability and seller practices are major concerns.
Pros
- Large keyboard with number pad
- Clear and lifelike screen
- Good performance for web apps
- Excellent value for money
- Handles Windows 11 well
Cons
- USB ports incompatible with monitors
- Exaggerated battery life (under 3 hours)
- Pre-activated warranty suggests used unit
- Out-of-box boot failure
- USB-C port not clearly labeled for data only
