Editorial note

The HP G62-120SS is a laptop that stands out for its solid performance thanks to its Intel® Core™ i3 processor, providing smooth usage for everyday tasks. However, it may encounter limitations when running more demanding software or intensive multitasking. With a storage capacity of 320 GB, this device offers enough space for common files, documents, and applications. That said, some users might feel the need for a higher capacity for increased storage needs. Its 15.6-inch screen with a resolution of 1366 x 768 pixels ensures a pleasant visual experience, but it may not satisfy those looking for high definition for watching videos or working on graphic tasks. The expandable internal memory up to 8 GB is an asset, although it may prove insufficient for resource-intensive applications or for users with high multitasking needs. Regarding design, the HP G62-120SS features a sturdy and sleek construction, but its weight of 2500 g may make it less practical for mobile use compared to lighter models available on the market. Finally, the lack of USB 3.0 ports and Bluetooth limits connectivity options, which could be a drawback for some users, especially those who frequently handle large files or prefer a wireless connection with other devices. Overall, the HP G62-120SS is a wise choice for everyday use, but it may not be suitable for users with more advanced performance and connectivity needs.
