Is This Laptop Any Good?

[R.C]

Hey there,

 

I am looking to buy a laptop and have found this one:

 

https://www.ebuyer.com/874549-hp-255-g7-ryzen-3-8gb-256gb-full-hd-15-6in-win10-laptop-6bn96ea-abu?reevoo_page=1&reevoo_filter=student#reevoo_embedded_reviews

 

I am an accounting student and will be using chrome and excel (and other office applications) and the same time so I don’t think it will need to be that powerful nor have a lot of storage as i will only be storing documents (I have a gaming pc for games).

 

is this any good? / or can I do better for the price?

 

many thanks,

RC

Good enough, R3 2200u is good enough for office applications.

IMO, the CPU and 8 gb RAM should be plenty for what you're using it for. If you need more storage, you could always add an external HD

Mediocre model

 

What's your budget? If it's too low then you might want to consider used

Preferably around £300. I’m not the biggest fan of used hardware though

For your budget used options are better than new options
