Review on HP 14 inch HD Laptop with Ryzen 3, 16GB RAM, 1TB HDD - Business & Student-friendly by Putri Cantika ᠌

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Total disappointment, the product is terrible.

When we turn on the laptop by pressing a power button that is difficult to distinguish, we instantly hear it, and we hear it quite clearly: the cooling system is at rest at 55 degrees, and it works continuously, buzzes and whistles even when the laptop is not loaded with anything. We disassemble the laptop by first peeling off the legs, which reveal screws hidden underneath them, and then breaking incredibly powerful latches that are located all the way around the case. We see a thermal paste that looks like sand and a protective film that should have been glued around the perimeter of the processor chip, but it was glued to HALF of the processor CRYSTAL, which, together with the thermal paste, gave a terrible overheating; well, and a cherry on top - a screw that secures the radio module board longer than ne. When I figured out how to adjust the screws and the cooling system, it is far quieter now, and when it is at idle, the fan does not turn on (by the way, there is an item in the BIOS that prohibits the fan from stopping - you can change it).

Pros
  • - Live performance - The whole shebang (two slots for RAM, a slot for ssd) - The weight - The screen - The keyboard with backlighting (size, quality)
Cons
  • Performance issues due to the fact that the cooling system was not intended to accommodate such a processor The power button that is the least distinguishable; the keyboard, on which the characters are not readable because the backlight is too intense; Considering how compact the laptop is, the power supply is quite substantial.
