Design – Optimal Use

This is a general purpose laptop with good CPU power making it a great desktop replacement; however for portability, it is a bit on the heavy side.

This HP laptop weighs 4.9 lbs and has a 15.6" screen. The laptop has more than enough memory and a quad-core AMD CPU with enough power to handle pretty much all home or small office tasks like browsing, email, office applications, casual gaming, etc. Note that it does not include an optical drive but is 0.9" thin.

Not for everyone

If you are looking for a light weight laptop for transporting, work, or coffee shops, you should consider a lighter Ultrabook instead. Gamers should look for a purpose-built notebook with a faster processor and discrete graphics chip or customize this laptop with an NVIDIA GeForce GT 650M for an additional $150 for a better gaming experience.
