HP Pavilion 15-eh1026nf chassis, connectors, display
With its blue mist aluminum design with a thin and light anodized sandblasted finish, this laptop sports an appearance that is both sober and original.
It is equipped with good connectivity with its USB-C, its Wi-Fi ax wireless modules (newer and more powerful than Wi-Fi ac) and Bluetooth 5.0 for wireless remote connections and communications, its convenient HDMI video output to easily connect it to a monitor or TV for example, its audio port or its 2 USB 3.0 (USB 2.0 compatible) guaranteeing transfers made up to 10 times faster than USB 2.0 if USB 3.0 devices are plugged into it.
As a fingerprint reader is integrated, one can authenticate by biometric recognition via Windows Hello technology.
The chiclet keyboard can be backlit which is convenient so that you can better distinguish its keys when the ambient light is limited.
The screen lends itself well to the display of videos and more generally High Definition content because it adopts a 16/9th format coupled with a precise Full HD definition. In addition, its viewing angles both horizontal and vertical are important because it is adorned with IPS technology. On the other hand, it offers a lower average colorimetry than more high-end IPS panels. In any case as it is treated anti-reflective, the screen is more readable than a shiny slab in a bright environment (eg outside).
HP Pavilion 15-eh1026nf Performance, Battery Life
The HP Pavilion 15-eh1026nf is a thin and light 15-inch High Definition laptop for versatile on-the-go use.
It relies on a low-power AMD APU (Accelerated Processing Unit) Ryzen 5 5500U Hexa Core Cezanne processor combined with a good amount of RAM of 16 GB to provide solid overall performance to satisfy many users.
Those who occasionally carry out modest treatments using RAM and multi-core (e.g. photo editing) may be interested. But to often perform heavy work in this area, it is better to turn to a PC with a non-low-power processor.
Ditto to play, we will opt for a computer equipped with a dedicated graphics card. Because here, you have to be satisfied with light titles since the Radeon Vega 7 graphics solution integrated into the Ryzen 5 Hexa Core takes care of all the graphics and also allows of course to watch photos and videos.
On the storage side, there is an SSD whose capacity of 512 GB corresponds to what hard drives offer as standard. But compared to the latter, remember that an SSD has the advantage of consuming less power, being more robust, quiet and much faster.
In practice, the SSD guarantees a much better fluidity and responsiveness on a daily basis than a simple hard disk. Thanks to the SSD, we benefit from much faster starts/stops, processing and software launches, or a faster arrival on the cards of online games.
Of course 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.
As for the autonomy of this computer whose thinness and weight content facilitate transport, bet on about 7 hours of operation on battery in light use.
