Performance, autonomy for HP 15-dw1068nf
The HP 15-dw1068nf is a slim and lightweight 15-inch High Definition laptop designed for everyday use.
In this area, such as office automation and web browsing, it delivers good performance because it is built around a good amount of 8GB of RAM connected to a low-power Intel Core i3-10100U Comet Lake processor.
Thanks to the Intel UHD 620 graphics solution integrated in the Core i3, you can also view photos and videos.
On the other hand, this laptop is not designed for work that requires processor and / or graphics resources, areas where it reveals its limits.
On the storage side, many will appreciate having an SSD on board. Because it offers several advantages over a hard drive: lower energy consumption, greater robustness, silent operation and greater speed.

In practice, the SSD provides much better fluidity and responsiveness on a daily basis than a simple hard drive. Thanks to the SSD, start / stop is much faster, for example, just like application launches.
Here we find a 512 GB SSD, a capacity similar to that offered by standard hard drives. Of course, if you need more space, you can rely on an external storage device, such as a USB-C / USB 3.0 device, to take advantage of fast transfers.
In terms of autonomy, expect about 5 hours of battery life with light use of this Ultrabook, whose transport is facilitated by the controlled weight and finesse.
