HP 15.6" Touchscreen Laptop i7-1355U 16GB DDR5 256GB SSD

Everyday laptop for school and office

The 15.6 inch Full HD touchscreen runs Windows 11 Home on a 13th generation Intel Core i7-1355U with ten cores and twelve threads. Sixteen gigabytes of DDR5 memory and a 256 gigabyte NVMe solid state drive handle documents, web apps and video calls. Intel Iris Xe graphics drive the 1920 by 1080 panel for daily productivity.

Silver chassis with standard keyboard and port mix

The natural silver body weighs 3.5 pounds and measures 14.1 by 9.5 by 0.75 inches. A non backlit keyboard and precision trackpad sit above a 41 watt hour battery fed by a 45 watt power supply. Connectivity includes Wi-Fi 6, Bluetooth 5.4 and Bluetooth 6.0, one USB-C 3.0, two USB-A 3.0, HDMI and a headset jack. An integrated webcam and internal speakers complete the setup.

Steps up from 8 gigabyte machines

The DDR5 memory and NVMe SSD remove the bottlenecks common in entry level configurations. Buyers who need more than 256 gigabytes of internal space or a backlit keyboard should look elsewhere. The ten core processor makes the jump worthwhile for multitasking workloads that exceed dual core or quad core performance.
