With a solid 10 hours of battery life, this device promises to keep you productive and editing without needing a recharge. The keyboard and trackpad are notable highlights, providing an incredibly comfortable user experience. However, the lower color gamut range may be a sacrifice for some users.

HP 15

The HP 15 dy24nr is a laptop that falls short of expectations given its price point. With a lackluster unboxing experience, mediocre build quality, and notable omissions such as a backlight keyboard, it's clear that cost-cutting measures were taken to reach the desired price tag. Despite having an i5 1135G7 processor, eight gigabytes of RAM, and a Wi-Fi six card, the laptop's shortcomings in other areas make it hard to recommend for its supposed list price of around $650. This review will delve into the specifics of what makes this laptop less than ideal.
