Certified Refurbished. They are professionally tested and restored to Factory default state. May have light cosmetic blemishes in some cases. Thin, light, and designed to travel.

The system does what it should do, and the usual office applications, browsing the Internet, and consumption of media content do not pose any problem. We like the design, and the workmanship is also solid. A battery life of almost six hours should also be enough for most users. The easy conclusion to draw, given that this machine can't quite match its rival's benchmark scores in some departments, would be that this is poor, but that's far from the case. The Ryzen 7 4700U is still a fantastic mobile processor, one which (in conjunction with its fast storage and generous RAM supply) gives this a perfectly snappy feel and helps it keep up easily with day-to-day desktop tasks. This definitely doesn't feel like a lesser laptop.

There's no two ways about it: the HP Pavilion 15's battery life is a big disappointment. Given its weight we were expecting this to have a bulky enough battery to last at least a full day's work; as it is, you'd have your work cut out to tease eight hours out of it. Our movie test didn't get far past the six hour mark, and PCMark's battery test managed half an hour more. While the HP 15s might satisfy most users, those who want to use an optimal system will have to make some compromises.Which does bring us to the other potential meaning of the word Ultrabook, which we'd say was 'any thin and light laptop' - emphasis on the actual thinness and lightness, rather than the implied. It's close, but the HP Pavilion 15 doesn't really qualify. Sure, we've seen bulkier machines out there, and we've seen heavier, but the 15-eh0014na does not slot into either niche exactly. It's not a one-hander like the LG Gram, nor is it sliver-thin like the MacBook Air. It's subtly dense in its own special way. During the Cinebench-R15 constant load test, the CPU shows an unusual result in the beginning. It takes a very long time before the fans run constantly and the performance rises to an acceptable level. Here it also shows that the CPU should be able to deliver the expected performance constantly, if the cooling would start earlier. On the other hand, during a constant load test using Blender, the notebook ran from the beginning with whirring fans, so that we were unable to rule out a Cinebench bug. Blender also demonstrated a good CPU performance, which also indicates that our R15 loop should be considered with caution.
