A thin laptop with a large format content weight, the HP 17-cp1016nf with 17-inch IPS Full HD anti-glare screen benefits from a fast SSD storage of 512 GB that enhances its responsiveness as well as USB-C connectivity. This versatile laptop with a sleek silver design performs well in everyday use and under modest multimedia work with its good amount of 16GB RAM and an AMD Barcelo Ryzen 7 Octo Core processor with Radeon Vega 8 graphics solution capable of supporting light gaming, all running Windows 11 without Wi-Fi ax or keyboard backlight.

Chassis, connectors, screen of the HP 17-cp1016nf
This relatively light thin laptop that can be recharged to about 50% in 45 minutes adopts a sober and elegant appearance.
It is equipped with a good connectivity composed of 1 USB-C, a useful HDMI video output to easily connect it to a monitor or TV for example, Wi-Fi ac and Bluetooth 5 wireless modules for remote connections and communications, Ethernet and audio ports but also 2 USB 3.0 (all compatible with both USB 2.0 and USB 3.0) guaranteeing transfers made up to 10 times faster than USB 2.0 if usb 3.0 devices are connected to it.
Too bad however not to find Wi-Fi ax more recent and powerful than Wi-Fi ac, and to note the absence of backlight solution of the chiclet keyboard …
In any case, fans of videos and more broadly of High Definition content will appreciate that the screen adopts a 16/9th format associated with a precise Full HD definition. Although its colorimetry is average, IPS technology still ensures significant viewing angles, both horizontal and vertical. As it is anti-reflective, the screen is also less tiring for the eyes in the long run than a shiny slab and more readable in bright environments (eg outside).
Performance, battery life of the HP 17-cp1016nf
The HP 17-cp1016nf is a large format laptop designed for common versatile use.
Many users will be satisfied with the overall performance delivered by this relatively light thin laptop because it is built around 16 GB of RAM and a low-power AMD APU (Accelerated Processing Unit) Ryzen 7 5825U Octo Core Barcelo processor.
In addition, those who perform modest multimedia processing taking advantage of RAM and multi-core (e.g. photo editing, video encoding) will be able to settle for this heart. To often carry out work heavy in processor and / or graphics resources on the other hand, we benefit from turning instead to a PC with a non-low-power processor and / or a suitable dedicated graphics card.
It is possible to watch photos and videos but also play light titles with this computer while it does not include a dedicated graphics card, thanks to the Radeon Vega 8 graphics part directly integrated into the Barcelo Octo Core Ryzen 7.
On the storage side, there is an SSD that rivals hard drives in terms of capacity with its 512 GB while being silent, more robust, less energy-consuming and much faster.
As a result, thanks to the SSD, the starts/stops, processing and launching of applications are much faster for example and we reach faster on the maps of online games. More generally, the SSD guarantees a much better fluidity and responsiveness on a daily basis compared to a simple hard disk.
Obviously in case you need more space, you can use an external storage unit such as a USB-C/USB 3.0 device to benefit from fast transfers.
If the weight contained and the finesse of this computer are appreciable to lug it, because of its large format it is however not one of the most easily transportable that is. Still, a 17-inch is particularly comfortable for mainly sedentary use (eg at home).
As for the autonomy, count on about 5 hours of operation on battery in light use.
