Editorial note

The HP G62-120SW is a laptop that stands out for its solid performance, thanks to its Intel® Core™ i3 processor, providing smooth execution of multitasking tasks. Its 15.6-inch screen with a resolution of 1366 x 768 pixels ensures a pleasant visual experience, although some users may find this resolution insufficient for more demanding applications. Additionally, its 500 GB storage capacity allows for a large amount of data and applications to be stored, which is an asset for many users. However, this model also has some limitations. The processor, while adequate for basic tasks, may be limited for users requiring high performance, especially for resource-intensive applications or recent games. The 4 GB RAM, expandable up to 8 GB, remains relatively low by current standards, which can lead to slowdowns when running multiple applications simultaneously. In terms of connectivity, the lack of USB 3.0 ports and Bluetooth may restrict usage options with modern peripherals. Furthermore, although the battery has 6 cells, the absence of specified battery life raises questions about its longevity during prolonged use away from a power source. In summary, the HP G62-120SW offers good value for basic tasks and is distinguished by its compact and lightweight design, facilitating portability. Nevertheless, users seeking higher performance and modern connectivity may want to consider other options.
