HP 250 G3 Notebook Review

 

It's got the basics. The HP 250 G3 is a 15.6-inch notebook currently priced at just 270 Euros (~$339). Did HP really just slim down their device where there was beef to spare, or did their frugal measures cross the line?

Input devices, Matte display, Price

Noisy hard drive, Only 12-month warranty, Contrast, Battery life

HP is asking for just 270 Euros (~$339) for their 15.6-inch notebook. The simple plastic case feels good in your hands, and the input devices are certainly cut out for office use and surfing the Internet. The keyboard feels good under your fingers, and...

HP 250 G3

 

If you're looking for a sturdy, well-rounded business laptop around Rs 35k, the HP 250 G3 is worth checking out. It has 15-inch LED backlit screen, 4th generation Intel Core i3 processor, and all the necessary input and connectivity features one would...

Nice Laptop

 

First thing I noticed when removing from shipping carton was the model is a "G3" not a G4 as was indicated (even in tn email soliciting this very review it said G4). All the hardware specs were as listed though, so I presumed it a typo. As I said under...

As advertised. No performance issues so far

Unwanted installed software persistent in updating/registering/purchasing

Everything I was looking for

 

Right screen size for my needs. Just the right amount of memory

Low profile that could lead to premature battery failure due to heat build up

Do not buy

 

Good price, but unreliable wifi card

The wifi card in this laptop is cheap and unreliable. It barely stays connected to the internet for more then 10 minutes at best. Sadly that is the only thing wrong with this product cause other than that it is a good laptop for school and everyday...

hope you're a tapper

 

speed is what you'd expect for a value laptop

the preload is relatively sparse, unobtrusive, and easy to uninstall (in contrast to most retail preloads) ; the screen is large and nice looking, and it has an optical drive, in spite of the fad of netbooks and tablets ; it has windows 7 PRO which...

the mouse buttons are virtually unusable. they are difficult to depress (as much as is possible for a mouse button), and it's clear they don't expect you to use them, they are merely there to pay homage to antiquity. i am not a "tapper" nor a gesture...

Good One

 

It's a good quality laptop for office/home use. I stuck with Windows 7 and I've had no problems with it whatsoever--after removing all of HPs junkware, of course.

Speedy enough, good graphics, overall setup is very nice

Very solid laptop for recreational use

 

Original machine would not boot up and displayed message from HP that something was wrong and go to website etc. Just called and returned after they emailed return UPS label. Easy process but did not get working laptop for about 10 days. Customer...

Nice laptop for price, lightweight and sturdy. Great for internet, netflix etc ; For some reason, had trouble installing Chrome (maybe it's me) but fine with Firefox

No cons that I have noticed--wouldn't get this unit if you're planning of crunching numbers in big databases

Wonderful!!

 

I'm using this computer primarily for school/work so I don't need a lot of processing power. So this computer is a perfect fit for me.

Windows 7 ; CD/DVD drive ; Worked immediately out of the box (Almost no set-up time) ; Very little bloatware ; Purchased on a Thursday arrived on the following Monday (even without expedited shipping)

It did require updates (~100 or so) upon shutdown/restart (this took a couple hours to complete)
