HP 1680D laptop i5-1334U 8GB 256GB 15.6" Touch FHD Win 10 Pro

Purpose-built laptop

The HP 1680D is a 15.6 inch touchscreen laptop powered by a 13th Gen Intel Core i5-1334U processor with ten cores and twelve threads. It ships with 8GB of DDR4 memory and a 256GB PCIe NVMe SSD, running Windows 10 Pro out of the box. The IPS display delivers a 1920 by 1080 resolution at a 60 Hz refresh rate and supports touch input. Integrated Intel UHD graphics handle the visual output.

Who it suits and who it does not

This configuration suits office workers, students and mobile professionals who need a responsive Full HD touch display, fingerprint security and a backlit keyboard for daily productivity. Buyers who want more storage capacity or discrete graphics performance for heavy creative workloads should look at other models. The 8GB memory is soldered as a single SO-DIMM module, so future expansion is limited to one slot.

Sustained-load behaviour

Under continuous load the i5-1334U can reach a turbo frequency of 4.6 GHz while the 45W power adapter and 41 WHr three-cell battery manage thermal output. The chassis measures 14.18 by 9.3 by 0.74 inches and weighs 3.5 pounds, providing enough surface area for passive heat spreading during extended sessions. Fan noise remains moderate because the integrated graphics share the same thermal envelope as the processor cores.
