HP Compaq 6720s

 

The 6720s is a competent performer and it could fit the bill if you don't need serious CPU or graphics power.

Extremely affordable, Good keyboard, Reasonable performance

Short on connectors and expansion options, No clasp between lid and screen sections, Oddly located touchpad

HP Compaq 6720s review

 

A simple but attractive design is let down by a lack of processing power

Vibrant display ; Decent battery life ; Tough build

Low graphics performance ; Basic spec

Not the most powerful performer, but this budget laptop has enough elsewhere to appeal

HP Compaq 6720s notebook

 

HP has taken the notebook market by storm in recent years, so much so that it is now the world's number one seller of notebooks. It's managed this by offering machines at specific market segments. The latest is the HP Compaq 6720s, which has been...

Great price, good keyboard, solid design

Low spec, poor battery life

HP Compaq 6720s

 

The 6720s is a budget business notebook that could fit the bill if you don't need serious CPU or graphics power, and are likely to spend most of your time in the office rather than on the road.

Extremely affordable ; Good keyboard ; Reasonable performance

Short on connectors and expansion options ; No clasp between lid and screen sections ; Oddly located touchpad

However what there is works well enough. Apart from the Aero graphics, the WEI scores suggest that the 6720s is a competent performer and it could fit the bill if you don't need serious CPU or graphics power, and are likely to spend most of your time...

Comes with a UK type cable

 

Worked fine with my laptop, it is an original HP power supply. It comes with a UK type cable, although the photo shows a US type. So no need to buy an extra cable.
