HP 250 G8 review – thinner bezels and a smaller body but a familiar story overall
Source: Laptop Media English
Despite the pretty rigid structure of the chassis, the plastic here feels cheap – both on the lid and on the body. As for the keyboard – it is somewhat of a win-lose situation because it is very comfortable for use, but at the same time, lacks a backlight, and generally feels inexpensive.
