HP 250 G6 [250G6 3VK27EA]

Golden mean

Hewlett-Packard has been at the forefront of computing technology for over 15 years. The company's success in the laptop market is due to the company's ability to cater to the mass consumer without driving up prices. Model HP 250 G6 is an excellent confirmation of this.

The laptop received a rather mediocre screen with SVA matrix with anti-glare coating. The heart of the laptop is a dual-core Core i3 with an operating frequency of 2.3 GHz. Interestingly, the processor is four-threaded, but without Turbo Boost support, which means that it cannot rise above the 2 GHz bar and this somewhat limits its performance.

256 GB SSD

On the other hand, the processor is very energy efficient, which has a positive effect on the battery life of the laptop. 6 to 8 hours of use at base load and average screen brightness is a decent result for this class. Also on the positive side, we must mention the already installed 256 GB SSD, which is enough for the system and everything else.

A laptop that won't take up much room in your bag

The weight of the model is 1.86 kg with dimensions of 380x253.8x23.8 mm. The surface of the case is made of matte plastic, according to user reviews, it is quite easily soiled, so that fingerprints have to be wiped periodically. This can hardly be called a big minus, rather a strange thing is that matte plastic does not sin like that.

no frills

In general, the HP 250 G6 leaves the impression of a reliable, but inexpensive laptop, in which the manufacturer tried to cut off excess fat as much as possible. This concerns not the coolest SVA matrix and a dual-core processor without Turbo Boost. And the more surprising is the presence of the writing DVD drive. Who needs it in 2019 and why they didn’t save on it remains a mystery.
