For £450, there is absolutely nothing wrong with the HP Pavilion SE 14. Performance is good, there are several unexpectedly high-end features like the 1080p webcam and powerful speakers, and it’s all wrapped up in a stylish, solid body. The battery life could be longer, and the display could be better, but that is more a case of getting what you expect for the money rather than getting more than you expect. As a general-purpose laptop for home, school or work use, the HP Pavilion SE 14 ticks all the boxes.

For £550, there really is nothing seriously wrong with the HP Pavilion SE 14. Performance is good, and it’s a stylish and well-made bit of kit. The display could be better, but that is more a case of getting what you expect for the money rather than getting more than you expect. The obvious competition for the HP Laptop 14 comes from Acer’s Aspire range of budget laptops, and we’ve recently reviewed the Aspire 3 and Aspire 5. The Acer sells for a similar price to the HP Pavilion SE 14 but only has a 256GB SSD and a low-rent TN display. Given the choice, I’d take the new HP in a heartbeat. For a general-purpose laptop for everyday home, school, or work use, the HP Pavilion SE 14 ticks all the boxes and should provide several years of reliable service thanks to the latest-gen Intel processor. It’s just a shame that HP has made accessing the internals so unnecessarily difficult.

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

AMD Lucienne (Zen 2, Ryzen 5000):
R7 5700U: A laptop-grade APU featuring eight SMT-enabled Zen 2 cores running at 1.8 GHz to 4.3 GHz and a Vega series graphics adapter with 8 CUs clocked at up to 1,900 MHz.
R3 5300U: A mobile quad-core APU with Zen 2 cores clocked at 2.6 to 3.8 GHz and a Vega graphics adapter with 6 CUs clocked at up to 1500 MHz. The Ryzen 3 CPU is very similar to the Ryzen 3 4300U.
R5 5500U: A hexa-core APU designed for use in ultra-thin, upper mid-range laptops. The Ryzen features six Zen 2 CPU cores running at 2.1 GHz to 4.0 GHz alongside the Vega 7 graphics adapter (448 unified shaders running at up to 1,800 MHz). One could be forgiven for thinking Ryzen 5 5500U is a renamed Ryzen 5 4500U - which is not the case. Ryzen 5 5500U is most similar to Ryzen 5 4600U, the most noteworthy difference between the two being the faster iGPU model of the former.
AMD Cezanne (Zen 3, Ryzen 5000):
R5 5625U: Mobile six core APU with Zen 3 cores clocked at 2.3 to 4.3 GHz and a Vega graphics adapter with 7 CUs clocked at up to 1800 MHz.
Intel Raptor Lake-U:
i5-1335U: Alder Lake based mobile CPU with 2 performance cores and 8 efficient cores. The performance cores offer hyper threading, leading to 12 threads that can be processed. The CPU clocks from 0.9 to 4.6 GHz. The TDP is specified at 15 Watt.

14.00:
14 inch display size represents a middle ground between the small subnotebook formats and the screens of the standard 15 inch laptops.
The reason for the popularity of mid-sized displays is that this size is reasonably easy on the eyes, provides good resolutions with usable detail sizes, yet does not consume too much power and the devices can still be reasonably compact.
In the past, 14-inch devices were very rare, but now they are the standard for laptops after the 15-inchers.

66.67%: This rating is poor. More than three quarters of the models are rated better. That is rather not a purchase recommendation. Even if verbal ratings in this area do not sound that bad ("sufficient" or "satisfactory"), they are usually euphemisms that disguise a classification as a below-average laptop.
