HP 255 G8 laptop for home and business

The HP 255 G8 laptop delivers a six-core AMD Ryzen 5 5500U processor that reaches 4 GHz turbo frequency with 12 MB cache. It ships with 64 GB DDR4 memory and a 512 GB PCIe NVMe SSD, running Windows 10 Home on a 15.6 inch 1920 x 1080 IPS display. The configuration suits professionals and students who need responsive multitasking and fast storage in a standard clamshell.

Build quality and daily connectivity

Dark Ash Silver chassis measures 14.10 x 9.53 x 0.88 inches and weighs 3.8 lb, using a 45 W power supply with a 41 WHr three-cell battery. Ports include HDMI, USB 3.2 Type-C, SD card reader and a headphone/microphone combo jack alongside RJ-45 Ethernet. Wireless links use 802.11ac Wi-Fi and Bluetooth 5.2, while an integrated webcam and trackpad handle input.

What to verify before ordering

Confirm that Windows 10 Home meets your software requirements, as the unit ships with this edition. The display is non-touch and fixed at 60 Hz, so touch or high-refresh workflows are not supported. Integrated AMD Radeon graphics limit 3D performance, and the memory is not user-expandable beyond the installed 64 GB.

Questions about this item

What bandwidth limit does the USB 3.2 Type-C port impose on external drives?

The USB 3.2 Type-C port runs at up to 10 Gbps, so an external NVMe drive will be capped at that speed rather than its full PCIe potential.

What are the chassis dimensions and weight for a sleeve or dock?

The laptop measures 14.10 in wide by 9.53 in deep by .88 in high and weighs 3.8 lb, so a 15.6 in sleeve with a little extra depth will fit.

How is the 64 GB DDR4 memory installed and which slot is often missed?

It uses two SO-DIMM slots; the factory 8 GB stick is usually in the top slot and the second slot underneath it is the one people forget to populate.
