Ready-to-work laptop for office and study

The HP 255 G8 ships with Windows 10 Pro and an AMD Ryzen 5 5500U six-core processor that reaches 4 GHz boost. Eight gigabytes of DDR4 memory and a 256 GB PCIe NVMe SSD handle everyday multitasking and fast boot times. The 15.6 inch IPS panel shows 1920 by 1080 resolution at 60 Hz for clear text and video.

Six-core Ryzen 5 5500U

The processor delivers 12 MB of L3 cache and twelve threads for responsive performance in spreadsheets, web apps and light creative work. Integrated Radeon graphics share system memory, so there is no separate video card to upgrade. This configuration suits users who need reliable CPU throughput without discrete GPU power.

The dark ash silver body measures 14.10 by 9.53 by 0.88 inches and weighs 3.8 lb. Connectivity includes HDMI, USB 3.2 Type-C, an SD card reader, RJ-45 Ethernet, 802.11ac Wi-Fi and Bluetooth 5.2. A 41 Whr battery and 45 W power supply support mobile use, while the integrated webcam and combo audio jack cover conferencing needs.

What does the USB 3.2 Type-C port actually support for data and video?
