HP is currently running a sale on its Pavilion 15 laptop for almost $400 USD off the original launch price of $1000. The configuration in question is notable for its high-end specifications relative to its new price including the Core i7-1195G7 CPU, 512 GB NVMe SSD, and 16 GB of RAM. That chassis is also the latest Pavilion design and not some older model l that the manufacturer is trying to get rid of.
We reviewed a version of the Pavilion 15 last year that utilizes the exact same physical design as the one that's on sale. We were surprised by the new chassis which borrows many features from the pricier Envy or Spectre series including the narrow bezels and comfortable keyboard for better first impressions than many other budget alternatives like the Dell Inspiron, Asus VivoBook, or Lenovo IdeaPad 3 series. Nonetheless, the difficult serviceability and lack of Thunderbolt may irk some enthusiasts who like to upgrade RAM or storage themselves or connect external GPUs.
