If you're after a large, no-frills laptop then the Pavilion 15-au072sa definitely fits the bill. At the time of writing it's available for just £399.99, yet packs in the latest Intel processor technology and has plenty of features.
A decent enough option for budget buyers, but cheaper options offer the same basic experience and you only need spend a little more to get a much better screen.

A decent general-purpose laptop with solid battery life.
Brilliant battery life ; Large hard drive ; Low price ; Pleasing styling ; Full-sized keyboard
Unimpressive screen ; Single-channel memory ; Flimsy construction ; Rattling optical drive ; Poor core performance
If you're looking for a straightforward laptop on a tight budget, the Pavilion 15 does more than its pricing might suggest. You won't be playing the latest games on it, and anything that is too processor-intensive is going to take a while, but it's not...

HP have finally bitten the bullet and made what many have been waiting an age for: a MacBook clone. It's been in the back of consumer's minds for a while. Why can't PC manufacturers follow through with the design leads laid down by Apple? Why redesign...
Plenty of power, sensational design, excellent finish, great keyboard
Battery life, spec doesn't match US versions, some fan noise
The HP Envy 15 has some real strengths: the design is sensational, the keyboard is excellent and the power on offer makes this a really versatile machine. This has to be balanced against the lack of internal drive and poor battery life, which means...

It's not, admittedly, the most portable of budget laptops – we weighed it at 2.6 kg, rather than the 2.5 kg quoted by HP, and it measures 24.7 mm thick. That's now big and heavy even for a 15.6-inch screen model with built-in DVD drive, so the Pavilion...
The size and weight of the Pavilion 15 TouchSmart suggest that it's more intended as a desktop replacement system for use at home or in the office. However, its all-round performance, combined with an attractive screen and optical drive, provide very...

With a big screen and a latest-generation Intel processor on board, the HP 15-bs series is an everyday laptop that should pack a punch. Can it live up to expectations in our tests? Read on to find out in our HP Pavilion 15-bs Series review.

The HP Notebook 15 certainly sounds like a steal. A 15-inch laptop with 1TB memory and Windows 10 sounds, for this price, should be worthy of your attention. We put it through our tough laptop lab tests to see whether it's too good to be true.

HP Pavilion 15 TouchSmart (n232sa) all-round performance, combined with an attractive screen and optical drive, provide very good value for money. Here's our HP Pavilion 15 TouchSmart (n232sa) review.

Disappointing display. The Pavilion 15 offers a ULV quad-core processor, a dedicated GeForce graphics core, and a solid-state disk. The greatest weakness of this device is the disappointing display.
matte display ; Full HD resolution ; hardly warms up ; SSD ; fast storage card reader ; AC WLAN ; backlit keyboard
dark display with poor contrast and unstable viewing angles ; only one year warranty ; difficult maintenance
With the Pavilion 15-cc107ng, HP has a 15.6-inch all-rounder in its offerings. The built-in ULV quad-core processor offers more than enough computing power for all the usual application scenarios. The dedicated graphics core enables the limited use of...

Power play. HP is pushing the limits on how powerful a Pavilion system can be without calling it a gaming notebook. The Pavilion 15 Power is the best and potentially most expensive in the series yet.
AMD RX 550 and GTX 1050 graphics options ; dual internal storage bays; NVMe support ; 1080p touchscreen and 4K UHD options ; stronger chassis; improved design ; powerful gaming performance ; no major CPU throttling ; respectable battery life
uneven surface temperatures; warm palm rest ; lid could be more rigid; slightly more teetering ; system fans always active; loud under load ; no Thunderbolt 3 or DisplayPort ; unimpressive internal speakers ; difficult serviceability ; limited color...
The Pavilion 15 Power is the stronger and more easily recommendable notebook compared to the standard Pavilion 15 if HQ-class CPUs and Pascal graphics are desirable options. The chassis is a significant update to the point where even typing feels more...

No frills gaming. The Pavilion 15 is a great blend of multimedia and performance gaming in a modest and portable multimedia chassis. Its connectivity options and serviceability, however, leave a lot to be desired.
primary and secondary 2.5-inch storage options ; very good gaming performance for the size ; good colors and grayscale ; bright display backlight ; thin, attractive design
system throttling under extreme loads ; uneven surface temperatures ; no USB Type-C port; no mDP ; plastic palm rests feel cheap ; loud fan noise when gaming ; soft clickpad; poor feedback ; no NVMe or RAID 0 options ; system fans always active ;...
The new Pavilion 15 is the intermediate between the GTX 950M-equipped Pavilion 15 of 2015 and the latest GTX 965M-equipped Omen 15 launched just a few weeks ago. Thus, it's also priced accordingly at a few hundred USD less than the entry-level but more...
