Editorial note

The HP g7-2230sw stands out for its solid performance thanks to its Intel® Core™ i5 3rd generation processor, which offers a Turbo frequency of 3.1 GHz. This allows for smooth execution of multitasking tasks and a satisfactory user experience, although the memory limited to 8 GB may hinder the most demanding applications. Its 17.3-inch screen with a HD+ resolution of 1600 x 900 pixels provides good visibility, but may disappoint some users in terms of display quality. The generous storage capacity of 1000 GB on an HDD allows for the retention of numerous files, applications, and media. However, the 5400 RPM speed may lead to longer loading times, which could be a drawback for those seeking optimal responsiveness. Regarding connectivity, the product offers Bluetooth and Wi-Fi options, but the lack of USB 3.0 ports limits data transfer speeds with modern devices. Finally, the weight of 2980 g makes this laptop less convenient to carry, which can be a disadvantage for users needing mobility. In summary, the HP g7-2230sw is a good choice for those looking for a versatile laptop with decent performance and ample storage space, but it has some limitations in terms of connectivity and portability.
