Editorial note

The HP G62-b86SS is a laptop that stands out with its Intel® Core™ i5-460M processor, offering optimized performance for everyday tasks with a frequency of 2.53 GHz and a Turbo capability of 2.8 GHz. Its 15.6-inch screen with LED backlighting ensures a pleasant visual experience, although the resolution of 1366 x 768 pixels may disappoint those seeking superior display quality. The storage capacity of 320 GB on a 7200 RPM hard drive allows for a large amount of data to be stored, and the nickel-metal hybrid (NiMH) battery with 6 cells provides satisfactory autonomy for prolonged use. In terms of connectivity, the HP G62-b86SS features USB 2.0 ports and a reliable Wi-Fi connection, facilitating data exchange and internet access. However, this model also has notable drawbacks. The internal memory is limited to 4 GB, which may not be sufficient for users with advanced multitasking needs or those wishing to run heavy applications. Additionally, the lack of Bluetooth reduces usability flexibility, while the weight of 2200 g makes the laptop less portable than other lighter models. Finally, the processor, while effective, may seem outdated for modern applications or recent games. In summary, the HP G62-b86SS offers good value for money for users looking for a basic laptop, but limits its versatility due to its memory and processor.
