Chassis, connectors, screen of the HP 17-cp2036nf
With its thin and light Natural Silver design, this laptop, which can be recharged to approximately 50% in 45 minutes, has a sober and elegant appearance.
This laptop PC integrates good connectivity with its USB-C, its Wi-Fi 5 ac and Bluetooth 4.2 wireless modules for remote connections and communications, its Ethernet and audio ports, its useful HDMI video output for easy connection to a monitor or TV for example as well as its 2 USB 3.0 (all compatible with both USB 2.0 and USB 3.0) ensuring transfers up to 10 times faster than USB 2.0 if you connect USB 3.0 devices.
The screen is adorned with a Full HD definition superior to the classic 1600×900 and more precise. It lends itself well to displaying videos due to its 16:9 format and at the same time benefits from significant viewing angles, both horizontally and vertically. And this is thanks to its IPS technology which is however not high-end here since the colorimetry is classic, logically given the positioning of this mobile computer.
As it has an anti-reflective treatment, the screen is also more readable than a shiny panel in a bright environment (eg outdoors) while being less tiring for the eyes over a long period of time.
Performance, autonomy of the HP 17-cp2036nf
The HP 17-cp2036nf is a large format High Definition laptop PC designed for everyday use.
It relies on a good amount of above-average 16 GB RAM as well as a low-consumption AMD Quad Core Ryzen 5 7520U Mendocino processor in which the Radeon 610M graphics module takes place.
As a result, this laptop provides good performance in everyday use, such as office automation and surfing the Internet or even for viewing photos and videos.
The storage supports the heart of this laptop PC well since it is entrusted to an SSD reinforcing responsiveness and fluidity on a daily basis.
Thanks to the SSD, starts/stops are fast, as are application launches in particular.
Indeed, an SSD is fast, in addition to offering other advantages such as great robustness, reduced energy consumption or even silent operation.
Here we find a 512 GB SSD, a solution found in many models on the market – including (much) more expensive ones.
However, if you need more space, you can use an external storage module. To obtain fast transfers, we preferably prefer a USB 3.0/USB-C device.
As for autonomy, count on around 5 hours of battery operation in light use for this relatively thin and light laptop for a 17 inch, which makes it easier to transport, even if it is obviously not the most portable there is. nature due to its large format.
