Verdict — Designed For Everyday Multimedia
The most appealing features of the HP 17t are its large 17.3-inch 16:9 display and relatively affordable starting price of around $1000. As such, it's a great solution for students or home users on a budget who can exploit the larger screen size for video playback, spreadsheets, or other scenarios where a 15-inch screen might be too small. Meanwhile, the modern Arrow Lake U-series CPU ensures decent performance and runtimes in spite of the low-end category and small battery capacity.
There are several drawbacks. A few are easy to overlook as the target audience of day-to-day home users or students are unlikely to care about minor CPU or SSD performance throttling issues, but the lack of full sRGB colors, an integrated SD card reader, or 1080p touchscreen options may irk some buyers. The Lenovo V17, for example, offers both deeper colors and an SD reader while the Acer Aspire 17 includes a discrete GeForce GPU for significantly faster graphics performance while being nearly identical to our HP in dimensions and weight. Casual gamers or amateur graphics editors may therefore want to look beyond the HP 17.
Pros
Cons
Price and Availability

The HP 17t is now shipping on Amazon for $1140 when configured with 32 GB RAM and 2 TB SSD.
The 17t is one of the most affordable 17-inch laptops in HP's portfolio. It sits below the Pavilion, Envy, or Spectre series in terms of features and hardware for students or home users on tighter budgets. The last HP 17 system we reviewed was several years ago with the 2020 version and so a lot has changed with the series since then.
Our test unit is a higher-end configuration with the Arrow Lake Core Ultra 7 255U CPU, 1080p display, and 96 GB of RAM for approximately $1600. Of course, most users will want to configure with less ram starting at around $1140. Other SKUs may ship with the slower Core Ultra 5 225U or lower resolution 1600 x 900 display instead for a starting price of $1000.
Competitors to the HP 17t include other basic multimedia laptops like the Lenovo V17, Acer Aspire 17, or the Asus Vivobook series.

Specifications
Case
The chassis is mostly plastic as to be expected from a budget-oriented laptop. The base warps slightly when twisting its corners while the hinges could have been stiffer to reduce teetering when adjusting the lid. On the bright side, the matte surfaces hide fingerprints well and overall dimensions are competitive against the Acer Aspire 17.
A black version of this model is also available.
Connectivity
Port options are identical to the Lenovo V17 but without the integrated SD card reader. The sole USB-C port supports external monitors and charging with third-party USB-C AC adapters should owners ever lose the barrel AC adapter.
Communication
The RealTek RTL8852BE does not support Wi-Fi 6E or Wi-Fi 7 to save on costs.

Webcam
The 1 MP webcam and physical shutter come standard with an optional 2 MP upgrade. There are no IR options.

Maintenance
Sustainability
A percentage of the base, bezel, speakers, and keycaps are manufactured with ocean-bound plastics and post-consumer recycled plastics.
Accessories And Warranty
There are no extras in the box other than the barrel AC adapter and paperwork. The usual one-year limited manufacturer warranty applies if purchased in the US.
Input Devices
Key feedback is noticeably lighter and not as firm as on the pricier Envy, Spectre, or EliteBook series. The typing experience is nonetheless decent for the price with large, easy-to-read font and backlit keys as standard.
Display
The Chi Mei IPS panel is as simple as it gets with limited sRGB coverage and both average brightness and black-white response times. Its contrast ratio is surprisingly good for an inexpensive laptop at around 1500:1, but the moderate backlight bleeding and narrow color space are otherwise sufficient for basic multimedia use cases.

Performance
Testing Conditions
We set Windows to Performance mode prior to running the benchmarks below.
Processor
The Core Ultra 7 255U in our HP 17t is only about 5 to 10 percent faster than the older Core Ultra 7 155U in the Envy 17. The narrow deficit may be attributed to the relatively steep performance drop when the CPU is stressed. For example, the initial score of 1490 points when running CineBench R15 xT in a loop would drop to as low as 982 points after just 2 cycles.
When compared to the Lunar Lake Core Ultra 7 258V, the Arrow Lake Core Ultra 7 255U is less expensive with both slower traditional performance and AI performance. Its integrated NPU does not meet Co-Pilot+ requirements.

Storage Devices
The PCIe4 x4 T-Force SSD can sustain transfer rates of up to 5300 MB/s for just a few minutes before steadily falling to 2400 MB/s as shown by our DiskSpd loop test results below. A heat spreader could have potentially improved performance over time, but the 17t is a budget laptop after all.

GPU Performance
Graphics performance with the integrated Arc 4-core is most similar to the Iris Xe 96 EUs that was prevalent on most laptops from just a few years ago. It's sufficient for very undemanding games like DOTA 2, but it's otherwise too slow for most 3D titles.

System Noise
The internal fan when browsing or video streaming is usually quiet with the occasional short-lived spike every now and then. It tops out at just under 42 dB(A) when running more demanding loads like games which is louder than the older 2020 HP 17.

Temperature
The left half of the laptop becomes noticeably warmer than the right due to how the cooling solution is designed. The hot spot on the WASD keys can become as warm as 40 C when running demanding loads for long periods compared to just 30 C on the numpad.
(+) The maximum temperature on the upper side is 39 °C / 102 F, compared to the average of 36.9 °C / 98 F, ranging from 21.1 to 71 °C for the class Multimedia.
(±) The bottom heats up to a maximum of 40.6 °C / 105 F, compared to the average of 39.2 °C / 103 F
(+) In idle usage, the average temperature for the upper side is 28.7 °C / 84 F, compared to the device average of 31.3 °C / 88 F.
(+) The palmrests and touchpad are cooler than skin temperature with a maximum of 27.4 °C / 81.3 F and are therefore cool to the touch.
(±) The average temperature of the palmrest area of similar devices was 28.7 °C / 83.7 F (+1.3 °C / 2.4 F).

Stress Test
The CPU would boost to 2.3 GHz, 33 W, and 95 C for several seconds when initiating Prime95 stress before eventually cycling at the 0.9 GHz to 1.3 GHz, 69 C to 77 C, and 15 W to 20 W range to keep temperatures at more manageable levels. The cycling clock rates when stressed confirm our observations above about the cycling CineBench R15 xT scores.

Power Consumption
The HP 17t operates under the same 45 W power envelope as the 2020 HP 17 but with much faster performance for significantly improved performance-per-watt. For example, both systems draw around 40 W each when gaming even though the 17t can perform 80 to 150 percent faster depending on the title.

Battery Life
Battery capacity is small for a 17-inch model at just 40 Wh. WLAN runtime is still decent at 5.5 hours which is lower than competing models like the Lenovo V17 but still longer than the older 2020 HP 17.
