Pros and Cons

Dell Inspiron 17 7706

Strengths

The laptop's Intel 11th generation i7 core processor (1165G7) performs well in Nova benchmark tests, achieving a score of 1948 and a average CPU score of 1211.
Thermal management is effective, with the fan kicking in to release excess heat and keeping the temperature under control.
The laptop can handle video editing software rendering without significant issues or overheating.
It has a good performance profile, with temperatures fluctuating between 60s to 100 degrees Celsius, but returning to manageable levels when not under load.
The laptop's cooling system is effective in exhausting heat, keeping the surface temperature at a comfortable level.

Weaknesses

There were some anomalous benchmark results, possibly due to software issues or external factors.
The laptop can become quite hot when performing demanding tasks like video editing, with temperatures reaching up to 100 degrees Celsius.
It was noted that the surface temperature of the laptop body is not reflective of the internal processor temperature, which can get very high.
There were instances where the temperature fluctuated rapidly between 90s and 60s, possibly due to the fan struggling to keep up with heat dissipation.
While it performed well in general, there was some inconsistency in benchmark scores, possibly due to factors like software issues or usage patterns.

HP ProBook 445 G11

Strengths

The laptop weighs less than 1.5 kg, making it easy to carry around in a bag without feeling heavy or uncomfortable.
The keyboard is spacious, has nice key travel, and even has a mute button for the system audio and microphone.
The silver color with classic HP branding looks minimal and professional. The hinge is sturdy, and there's minimal wobble when using it on a lap or desk.
The laptop has most necessary ports, including HDMI, USB 3, Type-C Thunderbolt, Ethernet, and headphone jack.
Our Ryzen 7 variant delivered decent scores in benchmarks like Cinebench R23 (9,100) and Geek Ben 6 (6,781).
We got around 8-9 hours of battery life with 70% brightness doing normal tasks.

Weaknesses

The 14-inch 1080p display could have better brightness and color reproduction. It's also prone to smudges and fingerprint marks.
The speakers at the bottom lack bass, and sound is muffled when placed on a couch or sofa.
While watching videos or listening to music, we found the laptop lacking in terms of display quality and speaker performance.
As expected, this isn't a gaming laptop, but it's also not optimized for gaming. Don't try gaming on it if you're a serious gamer.
The price might be steep, with the Ryzen 5 variant starting from around ₹60,000.
The display is not ideal for media consumption, with lackluster brightness and color reproduction.
