Second Chance HP Pavilion SE 15-fc0959nd
Pros and cons
- You can smoothly switch between light programs and editing photos with the AMD Ryzen 5 processor and the 16GB RAM.
- You can use the laptop in both light and dark spaces thanks to the anti-glare screen with a 300-nit brightness and backlit keyboard.
- You can charge your laptop up to 50% in about 45 minutes with HP Fast Charge, so you can quickly continue to work without a power cord.
- For video editing and working in demanding programs, we recommend at least an Intel Core i7, Intel Core 7, Intel Core Ultra 7, or AMD Ryzen 7 processor.
- The USB-C port doesn't have a charger function and DisplayPort, so you can't charge via the USB-C port or connect your laptop to a monitor via a docking station.
Product description
Note: this laptop runs on Windows 11 in S mode. Do you prefer the regular Windows 11? Switch off the Windows 11 in S mode via the settings.
Securely work in apps from the Microsoft Store and smoothly switch between programs with the 15.6-inch HP Pavilion SE 15-fc0959nd. Edit photos, write texts and reports in programs like Microsoft Word, and make spreadsheets and presentations in Excel and PowerPoint. The 7000 series AMD Ryzen 5 processor and 16GB DDR5 RAM are powerful enough for that. Feel free to work outside on a sunny day with the bright 300-nit screen. Thanks to the backlit keyboard, you can quickly find the right keys at night. Is your laptop empty? No worries, you can charge it for 50% within 45 minutes. You're well-protected from viruses as you can only install apps from the Microsoft Store because of the Windows S version. Rather have the regular version? You can turn it off via the settings. Keep in mind that you can't turn S mode back on again after turning it off. You can log in to your laptop quickly and securely via the fingerprint sensor and cover your webcam with the privacy switch. Lastly, the Pavilion SE is partially made of recycled materials. This makes this laptop a more sustainable choice.
