Review on HP 255 15 6 LCD Notebook by Micha Zikowski ᠌

Revainrating 3 out of 5

There are some variations, but tolerable on the whole.

Model 6bn09ea#acb This laptop has excellent configuration options: you can install an m.2 ssd and a regular hard drive, and it has everything, and dvd (whatever is required or it can be replaced with another hard drive). And memory up to 16 GB can be done, although it works well with the 8th one too. The main thing is that there are ports. But the screen is just the most disgusting, even from changing the position of the head you have to tilt the screen. It is also very uncomfortable to work without backlighting, especially if you have already worked on a backlit keyboard. If you have to work with the F-buttons, then you have to break your eyes straight to see. I wanted to give up and buy another laptop, but I felt sorry for this one - after all, in terms of configuration and performance, it is very good, and I decided to put an IPS matrix and backlight on it. I made sure that the laptop board has a connector for the backlight cable, chose a keyboard with the same form factor and connector (the keyboard for the HP Pavilion 15-CB000 series is black with green backlighting) - and it came up, I have been working with it for more than a week. The default matrix was also replaced with IPS. I tried two matrices: b156han04.1 - fit, nv156fhm-n42 - did not fit. If someone decides to change - consider the following points: 1) in the case of the keyboard - a lot of work on plastic, you must first carefully cut off the legs with which the keyboard is soldered to the case, then they will have to be soldered so that the keyboard is normally pressed. You will have to carefully trim the plastic stiffeners of the cover so that the keyboard does not play. It took about 4 hours. 2) in the case of a display, you need to very carefully remove the lower part of the frame, it is very strongly glued to the protective coating of the standard display chip, and this coating is torn quite easily. I didn’t manage to remove it normally and I tore this coating. The default screen works in this state, but for a long time - it is not known. 3) the laptop will lose its 100% warranty. You can find a video on YouTube for the query "hp pavilion 15 cs keyboard tricky" - an illustration of the front of work all cyberpunk guys

Pros
  • Price, equipment
Cons
