Comment

Model: The HP Envy 15 is a gaming laptop. Its performance stems majorly from its Intel Core i7 dual-core processor with 8 GB of DDR3 SDRAM. There is second RAM slot for additional 8 GB. Thus a maximum RAM of up to 16 GB is possible. Additionally, the Envy 15 has a 15.6 inch display driven by an NVIDIA GeForce GTX 950M and an integrated Intel HD Graphics 5500. The LED display features a resolution of up to 1920 x 1080 pixels and a matte surface. Above it, there is a 1 MP webcam. The case is made from sturdy aluminum and has an ergonomic design built for gaming and heat dissipation with smoothed out edges. The solid build can definitely handle rough touches and long hours of runtime.

Additionally, the Envy 15 features a backlit keyboard and a relatively large touchpad, which supports several multi touch gestures. The strong lithium ion battery with 3 cells and 55 Wh battery lasts up to 9 hours of continuous use. All four of its USB ports are USB 3.0. In addition there are an HDMI port, an Ethernet port, 3.5 mm combo audio jack, an SD card reader and a Kensington Lock for security measures. Finally, it has a strong Gigabit Ethernet network card and a above-average 11ac WiFi card with Bluetooth 4.0 to further enhance online gaming experiences.

NVIDIA GeForce GTX 950M: Mid-range graphics card of the GeForce GTX 900M series, based on the Maxwell architecture.

Modern games should be playable with these graphics cards at low settings and resolutions. Casual gamers may be happy with these cards.

Intel Core i7: The Intel Core i7 for laptops is based on the LG1156 Core i5/i7 CPU for desktops. The base clock speed of the CPUs is relatively low, but because of a huge Turbo mode, the cores can dynamically overclock to up to 3.2 GHz (920XM). Therefore, the CPU can be as fast as high clocked dual-core CPUs (using single threaded applications) but still offer the advantage of 4 cores. Because of the large TDP of 45 W / 55 W, the CPU is only intended for large laptops.  


5500U: Broadwell-based ULV (ultra low voltage) dual-core processor for notebooks and ultrabooks. Offers an integrated HD Graphics 5500 GPU and is manufactured in 14 nm.» Further information can be found in our Comparison of Mobile Processsors.


15.60":

15-inch display variants are the standard and are used for more than half of all laptops.

The reason for the popularity of mid-sized displays is that this size is reasonably easy on the eyes, often allows high resolutions and thus offers rich details on the screen, yet does not consume too much power and the devices can still be reasonably compact - simply the standard compromise.

HP: Founded in 1939, the US company is a major server and printer manufacturer and one of the leading IT companies in the world. Until 2015, the company was called Hewlett-Packard Company. After a split, the computer division was renamed HP Inc.

In 2023, HP had an approximate market share of 22% of global PC sales, making it number 2 after Lenovo.


89%: This is an above-average rating. Nevertheless, it should not be forgotten that about one fifth of all tested models receive a better rating.
