80% HP Pavilion Gaming 15 AMD review: Solid gaming power now more affordable
Source: India Today English Archive.org version
Most users looking for these laptops like the HP Pavilion Gaming 15 primarily want to use the systems for casual gaming or video editing. Whichever of these two is your primary purpose, the Pavilion Gaming 15 will satisfy you. The performance is great thanks to the Ryzen 7-3750H processor, and the Nvidia GTX 1650 graphics card caters to most graphical intensive requirements with ease. The battery life in on par with most gaming laptops but for the most part, you will plug in the laptop to power while gaming. The best part about it is the design and build it is one of the best in its class.

HP Pavilion 15 Review: Mid-Range Laptop with Great Performance
Source: Cashify English
When it comes to testing moderate budget computers, I’m usually sceptical. The HP Pavilion is a strong, well-built laptop for the price, with clumsy keyboards, jumpy trackpads, and brittle hinges. You get quick speed, a springy keyboard that’s a joy to type on, an accurate trackpad with very minor flaws, and a build quality that belies its price tag. And, despite its 15-inch size, it’s very portable. The HP Pavilion Gaming Laptop is great at this price point. In our HP Pavilion 15 review, it scores amazingly well in benchmarks and is very well suited for running 3D rendering tasks, making it a compelling option for people who work in 3D modelling or animation. Additionally, there’s very little throttling over time, so the laptop stays near its full performance during extended rendering or computational workloads. It boasts a sturdy, well-built chassis, a nice keyboard that doesn’t get tedious to text on over time, and a responsive touchpad. It also comes with lightning-fast AMD CPUs and specialised NVIDIA GPUs, making it ideal for students who edit video or work with 3D renders
