Reviews consensus: The HP 15.6 2023 model is, as the name suggests, HP's latest 15.6 laptop, and while its display only offers a 1080p resolution, it does have a 12th Gen i5 processor, 16GB of RAM, and 512GB of storage to allow for it to be used for multitasking on the go. Windows 11 is pre-installed, too, so you get the latest Microsoft has to offer right from the jump, and the battery should last you almost a full working day as well.

Buy it if: You want a laptop that's great for multitasking, with a solid battery and rapid storage for local files.

Don't buy it if: You want a gaming laptop, or something with a sharper resolution — this model caps out at 1080p. You want a quieter machine — reviews suggest there's a fair amount of fan noise in this laptop.
