HP 15-bs600 [15-BS626UR 2YL16EA]

Some manufacturers in this price segment are trying to create solutions with a huge variety of configurations, so that everyone can find something for themselves. HP 15-bs600 is from this league.

Iron

Due to the average efficiency of the cooling system, the best option is a modification with an Intel Core i5 7200U processor of the Kaby Lake generation with a clock frequency of 2.5 GHz, in conjunction with a discrete video accelerator AMD Radeon 520 with 2 GB of GDDR3 video memory. Due to the balanced heat dissipation of components, the laptop does not suffer from throttling, and the cooling system, during office work, is almost inaudible.

The amount of RAM is 8 GB DDR4 type and can be expanded up to 16 GB using two slots. The drive is a 1 TB HDD with a spindle speed of 5400 rpm.

Design

The main advantage of this laptop is the case and the keyboard. The case is completely made of matte plastic. It is assembled quite qualitatively: the topcase practically does not flex, which is typical mainly for expensive laptops, and the keyboard allows for comfortable touch typing. The keys have a short travel and a clear return. The trackpad, although it accurately responds to touch, cannot be called a reference — tactile sensations leave much to be desired.

Screen

Full HD (1920x1080 pixels) display with SVA technology and anti-reflective coating. The display brightness is 235 cd/m² and the contrast ratio is 560:1. The colour gamut of the matrix covers 55.5% of the Adobe RGB space and 35% of sRGB. Its main drawback is the brightness, it is not sufficient to work in bright sunlight.

From the battery, the laptop can work up to 11 hours, and the fast charging technology allows you to charge it up to 90% in 90 minutes.
