HP 245 G5 Notebook Review
Build Quality: The reason I chose hp was because of the built quality. The good thing is the body is more or less same for this model even if you go for higher configuration. This essentially means that hp do not compromises with the built quality for lower configuration laptops as is seen in other brands. The body is sturdy and of good quality plastic. It nowhere looks like a cheap laptop from any angle. One of my major concern was the built quality, for which I am quite relieved.
Display: It comes with a 14 inches display with a screen resolution of 720×480 pixel and is perfect for doing everything like playing games and watching movies.
Processor: It comes with an AMD processor which is best at this price and i think its better than i3 processor.
Rom & Ram: It comes with a ram of 4gb and can be expanded upto 16gb. And it has 500gb of ROM which can be later expended to 1tb.
Speakers: Speaker are bedded at the bottom front of the laptop which i would rate 6 out of 10. they are audible finely when there are no noise but when you are outside with disturbance they are not audible at all.
Battery: Battery tend to lag 3 to 4 hours depending on the usage though i have an average opinion about the battery. Overall battery works great without any heating problem at all.
Other Features: It comes with 3 usb ports (2×1 2.0usb port and 1×1 3.0usb port) , it have a VGA and a HDMI port for connecting with various devices. It also have a aux port to connect your mic, speaker or earphones.
And one port to access wired internet connection. And has a inbuilt dvd reader/writer. It has a bluetooth and wifi adapter(inbuilt) to connect with wireless device.
Price: As per the price is concern HP 245 G5 Notebook comes with the price tag of Rs. 20,490.
Pros:
- Display is crisp.
- Faster ram ddr3l 1600mhz.
- Faster hdd 500gb 7200rpm toshiba.
- Comes with 512mb graphic memory inbuilt.
- Processor is a quad core AMD A6 7310.
Cons:
- Speaker is not loud as expected it does not have bass but for this price you cant expect too much.
- Overall the build quality is above expectation and processor performs very smooth
Final Words:
This is the best value for money laptop if you want a laptop for normal day to day use and office work. The option to upgrade RAM is another option which is hardly found at this price point. If you are a very heavy user of multitasking, you may consider upgrading the RAM later. If you have limited budget, want a sturdy built as well as good performance, go for it!
