Reviews for the HP Pavilion 16-af0000
Source: Digital Trends
This entire review assumes that you can get the Pavilion Laptop 16 at a sale price, such as when this review is written at $650. It’s fast enough for most productivity users, and it’s built well enough. But its battery life isn’t great and its display just isn’t colorful enough to spend a lot more money. But, if you need a large laptop and don’t have a lot of money, then the Pavilion Laptop 16 is well worth considering. You’ll get a laptop that’s reasonably pleasant to use and won’t break the bank. But make sure to wait for a sale, because the laptop won’t be worth it at list price.

The HP Pavilion Laptop 16 espouses the kind of big visuals and full-sized keyboard access you might find in a desktop replacement gaming laptop yet it’s as portable as an ultrabook. It also features jack-of-all-trades performance that’s just as useful for leisure as it is for a spot of work. The Pavilion Laptop 16 can also be used for lightweight gaming where you’re best-off sticking to playing less graphically demanding titles. Indeed, if you’re looking for an affordable do-it-all with a relaxed feel, then the HP Pavilion Laptop 16 is a great choice.
