HP Essential 17.3" laptop for everyday computing

This HP Essential laptop delivers a 17.3-inch HD+ anti-glare display and an Intel Core 5 120U processor with 10 cores and 12 threads. It runs Windows 11 Home and includes 8 GB of DDR4-3200 memory alongside a 256 GB PCIe NVMe M.2 SSD. The design uses recycled plastics and carries EPEAT Gold registration with ENERGY STAR certification.

Suits users who want a large screen for documents

The 17.3-inch 1600 x 900 panel and lift-hinge keyboard make this a good fit for office work, web browsing and media consumption. Buyers who need discrete graphics for gaming or creative rendering should look elsewhere, as the system relies on integrated Intel Graphics. The single 8 GB memory module also limits multitasking headroom for heavier workloads.

256 GB PCIe NVMe M.2 SSD decides storage capacity

The boot drive provides 256 GB of solid-state storage on an M.2 NVMe interface, which determines how many applications and files you can keep locally. No additional drive bays or larger capacity options are mentioned in the specifications. If your workflow demands more space, you will need to plan for external storage or a different configuration.

Questions about this item

Does this laptop need any extra memory modules to run Windows 11 Home with the installed 8 GB DDR4-3200 MT/s?

No, the single 8 GB DDR4-3200 module is already installed and Windows 11 Home runs on it out of the box.

Will my older USB-A mouse and keyboard work with the ports on this Intel Core 5 120U laptop?

Yes, the laptop includes standard USB-A ports so existing USB-A peripherals connect directly.

How can I confirm the 256 GB PCIe NVMe M.2 SSD is recognised and set as the boot drive after first power-on?

Open Settings, go to System then Storage; the 256 GB drive should appear as the primary device with Windows 11 Home installed.
