HP Essential 17.3" laptop i3-1215U 16GB 1TB Silver

HP Essential 17.3" FHD laptop for daily work

This 17.3-inch laptop ships with Windows 11 Home, an Intel Core i3-1215U processor, 16 GB of DDR4 memory and a 1 TB PCIe M.2 solid-state drive. The 1920 x 1080 anti-glare display and numeric keypad suit office tasks, web browsing and light multitasking. Integrated Intel UHD Graphics handles standard video playback and basic productivity. Silver chassis measures 15.78 x 10.15 x 0.78 inches and weighs 4.6 lbs.

Ready to use with minimal setup

Windows 11 Home is pre-installed so the system boots to the desktop after the initial region and account prompts. Driver updates arrive through Windows Update; the 16 GB memory is soldered and not user-upgradable. The single M.2 slot accepts one PCIe SSD up to 2 TB if more storage is needed later. No optical drive is present, so software must be downloaded or installed via USB.

Check your workflow and peripherals before ordering

The 6-core processor with a 4.40 GHz maximum turbo frequency covers everyday applications but is not intended for sustained heavy rendering or gaming workloads. Two Superspeed USB Type-A ports, one Superspeed USB Type-C port, one HDMI output and a headphone/microphone combo cover most legacy and modern accessories. Wi-Fi and Bluetooth provide wireless connectivity; verify that your network environment supports the required standards. Buyers who need a touchscreen, discrete graphics or user-replaceable memory should consider other configurations.
