Archive.org versionLet’s jump straight to the point. The main question we wanted to answer when we got this laptop was, how much of a difference would it make to get a 16-inch laptop, instead of a 15-inch one. And quite honestly, the answer is little to none. This is mainly because of the fact that the actual difference is only 0.5″. However, it would be a nice trend if manufacturers actually start making 16-inch devices, instead of the marginally smaller 15-inch ones, just because that little difference of just over a centimeter in diagonal, would enable them to implement an improved cooling solution.

Archive.org versionThe HP Pavilion Gaming 16 is a decent attempt at making a gaming laptop that can be used by the non-gaming crowd for work and play. But there are few things that make the 16-inch notebook far from being a perfect machine. As I pointed before, my test unit lacked a 144Hz screen; but if you are a hardcore gamer you should settle for a laptop with a high refresh rate screen. Battery life, of course, should be improved on a gaming laptop. Otherwise, the notebook is relatively light (for a gaming laptop), performance is good, the keyboard is great to type on and there are plenty of ports. And, in case, if you are so obsessed with a 144Hz screen, HP has a Pavilion Gaming 15 with a 144Hz refresh rate screen, AMD Ryzen 5, 8GB DDR4 RAM, 256GB NVMe SSD, and AMD Radeon graphics. That notebook costs only Rs 70,068. In the end, the choice is yours.

80%: This rating is not earth-shattering. This rating must actually be seen as average, since there are about as many devices with worse ratings as better ones. A purchase recommendation can only be seen with a lot of goodwill, unless it is about websites that generally rate strictly.
