Editorial note

The HP CQ58-252SA laptop stands out for several advantages, including its lightweight of 2450 g, making it easy to transport for on-the-go use. Its 15.6-inch screen and 500 GB storage capacity are appreciated assets for users with diverse data needs. With an Intel® Pentium® B980 processor at 2.4 GHz and 4 GB of DDR3-SDRAM RAM, the model ensures smooth performance for everyday tasks, while the support for Wi-Fi (802.11n) and Ethernet connectivity guarantees a fast and reliable connection. The full keyboard and touchpad also provide a pleasant typing experience. However, the HP CQ58-252SA has some limitations. The Intel Pentium B980 processor may be insufficient for resource-intensive tasks, such as video editing or recent gaming. Additionally, multitasking capability is limited with only 4 GB of RAM, which can lead to slowdowns when using multiple applications simultaneously. The screen resolution of 1366 x 768 pixels may seem disappointing for demanding users, and the lack of Bluetooth limits wireless connectivity options. Finally, the 5400 RPM hard drive may slow down loading times compared to other faster models. Overall, the HP CQ58-252SA scores 78 in user experience, indicating general satisfaction despite the limitations. Its performance is rated at 65, highlighting the restrictions for more intensive uses. The modern and sleek design is well-received with a score of 80, while the value for money is rated favorably at 75. The features are rated at 68, reflecting their basic yet functional nature, although the absence of Bluetooth and a slower hard drive are areas for improvement.
