I don't expect budget notebooks to deliver top-notch performance, displays or even design, but the HP Notebook 15-ba009dx is subpar on just about every level. It lasts less than 4 hours on a charge, has a dim and bland display, a flat keyboard and a plastic case with significant give in the lid. It doesn't even support the latest Wi-Fi standard.
