HP 255 G8 Ryzen 5 laptop

The HP 255 G8 is a 15.6 inch business laptop powered by a 6-core AMD Ryzen 5 5500U processor with a 4 GHz boost clock. It ships with Windows 10 Pro, 8GB of DDR4 memory and a 2TB PCIe NVMe SSD. The 1920 x 1080 IPS display runs at 60 Hz and the chassis weighs 3.8lb.

Who this suits and who should look elsewhere

This machine suits office workers, students and remote professionals who need a large, fast solid-state drive and a modern 6-core CPU for multitasking and video calls. Buyers who want a touchscreen, a discrete graphics card, more than 8GB of RAM or a higher refresh rate panel should consider other models.

The specification that decides fit

The single specification that decides whether this is the right part is the 2TB PCIe NVMe SSD, which provides high-capacity, low-latency storage for large project files and application libraries without requiring an external drive.
