HP 255 G8 Ryzen 5 5500U 32GB DDR4 256GB NVMe

This new HP 255 G8 laptop ships with a six-core AMD Ryzen 5 5500U processor that runs at 2.10 GHz and can boost to 4 GHz. The 15.6 inch IPS display delivers 1920 x 1080 resolution at 60 Hz without touch input. Integrated AMD Radeon graphics handle the visual workload. A 256 GB PCIe NVMe solid state drive and 32 GB of DDR4 memory complete the core specification.

Suited to office multitasking

The 32 GB memory complement and six-core processor give headroom for multiple business applications and browser tabs. Buyers who need discrete graphics performance for 3D rendering or modern gaming titles should look at a different class of machine. Users requiring a larger storage pool for local media libraries will find the 256 GB drive limiting. The non-touch 60 Hz panel is not aimed at colour-critical creative work.

Windows 10 Home 64-bit operating system

The laptop arrives with Windows 10 Home pre-installed on a 64-bit architecture. Microsoft has published a Windows 11 Pro upgrade path for compatible hardware; confirm eligibility before deployment. The 45 W power adapter and 41 Wh three-cell battery provide the rated power envelope. Wireless connectivity uses 802.11ac Wi-Fi with Bluetooth 5.2.

Questions about this item

Should I choose the 256 GB PCIe NVMe SSD or a larger drive?

The laptop ships with a 256 GB PCIe NVMe SSD; if you store large media libraries locally you may want a higher capacity, but the included drive is already fast for everyday tasks.

What does the Ryzen 5 5500U 2.10 GHz base and 4 GHz boost mean for daily use?

Six cores and twelve threads at up to 4 GHz give smooth multitasking and quick response in office apps, web browsing and light content creation.

What does the USB 3.2 Type-C port actually support?

The USB 3.2 Type-C port provides data transfer and video output via HDMI alternate mode, so you can connect a monitor or dock without a separate video cable.
