HP 255 G8 Ryzen 5 laptop

The HP 255 G8 is a 15.6-inch laptop powered by an AMD Ryzen 5 5500U processor with six cores and a 4 GHz turbo frequency. It comes with 8GB of DDR4 memory and a 512GB PCIe NVMe SSD running Windows 10 Home. The 1920 x 1080 IPS display runs at 60 Hz and is non-touch, making it suited to office work, study and general home use.

60 Hz Full HD display and integrated graphics

The 15.6-inch panel delivers a 1920 x 1080 resolution at 60 Hz, which is adequate for documents, web browsing and video playback. Graphics are handled by the integrated AMD Radeon GPU, so the system relies on shared system memory and is not designed for modern 3D gaming or heavy GPU compute workloads. The 8GB DDR4 configuration is soldered as a single module, limiting dual-channel bandwidth and future memory expansion.

Check OS upgrade path and port requirements

The laptop ships with Windows 10 Home 64-bit; verify whether your organisation requires Windows 11 Pro before deployment. Connectivity includes 802.11ac Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 5.2, Gigabit Ethernet, HDMI, USB 3.2 Type-C, an SD card reader and a combo audio jack. There is no optical drive and the chassis measures 14.10 x 9.53 x 0.88 inches weighing 3.8 lb, so confirm the form factor fits your bag or docking setup.
