HP 15 Raider i3-1215U 32GB 512GB 15.6 Touchscreen laptop

Business laptop with touchscreen

The HP 15 Raider is a new 15.6 inch laptop running Windows 11 Pro for office workers and students who need a responsive touchscreen and plenty of memory. Its six core Intel i3-1215U processor reaches 4.4 GHz turbo frequency with eight threads for everyday multitasking. Integrated Intel UHD Graphics handles standard business applications and video playback without a discrete card.

Silver chassis with USB-C and HDMI

The silver chassis measures 14.17 by 9.29 by .73 inches and weighs 3.52 pounds for straightforward daily carry. Connectivity includes two USB-A 3.2 ports, one USB-C 3.2 port and an HDMI 1.4b output for external displays. Bluetooth 5.3 and Wi-Fi provide wireless links while a 720p privacy camera supports video calls. The 512GB PCIe SSD and 32GB DDR4 memory are installed after the original seal is opened by engineers for upgrade and testing.

Upgrade from 8GB non-touch models

This configuration replaces older 15 inch laptops limited to 8GB memory, lower resolution non-touch screens and slower storage. The jump is worth it when your workflow demands 32GB RAM for many browser tabs or virtual machines and a 1366 by 768 touchscreen for direct interaction. Buyers who need a dedicated graphics card, a backlit keyboard, a fingerprint reader or an SD card reader should look elsewhere.
