By the way, the hinges and stand out noticeably in the interior, especially in the interior combines black and ashen-silvery color. Moreover, the site used design accents – it’s horizontal strokes.
From materials – here the plastic (base) and metal (cover). Initially, one might think that the hinges holding the display, metal. But there is also plastic, and if then he is quite strong, then on the work surface so you will not say it sags in the central part. By the way, the cap Pavilion 14-al008ur susceptible to twisting.
The HP Pavilion 14 review 2016 is not too marker. Its dimensions are 338x224x19 mm will not interfere along with other luggage on the trip. In addition, the weight of 1.7 kg device is not as hard to deliver discomfort owner for frequent transportation.
DISPLAY, SOUND, WEBCAM
The HP Pavilion 14 review 2016 is a glossy display with a 14-inch diagonal and a resolution of 1920×1080 pixels. I must say that this is a very good indicator if it will fit on the screen quite a lot of information. By the way, it is a plus and IPS-matrix, through which you will appreciate the wide viewing angles. In general, the device is perfect for watching videos, working, surfing the Internet and other tasks. The image on the screen offers excellent detail, high contrast, and vivid colors. The only thing that the brightness level is not so high as to be equally comfortable working with laptop in the room and on the street.
The laptop is equipped with two speakers B & O (Bang & Olufsen) and supplemented by the support of HP Audio Boost. In general, the sound will appreciate purity volume relatively good and pronounced high frequencies. The bass is almost inaudible, except that some depth is shown with connected headphones and certain settings.
But for the video in an HP Pavilion 14 review 2016 provided HP Wide Vision HD webcam with a resolution of 0.9 megapixels. It is complemented by a bi-directional digital microphone that will improve voice quality in video conferencing.
KEYBOARD AND TOUCHPAD
Blame the input device in the HP Pavilion 14 review 2016 does not make sense. They are fairly considered. Take, for example, a keyboard. It is an island, is spacious, has medium-size keys with a flat surface. The buttons are pressed lightly, a little springy, with their barely audible. With regard to labeling, there is also no complaints. All characters and basic, and the function keys will be seen very well for those who do not use a blinded fashion set. By the way, the manufacturer provides illumination that simplifies the use of a laptop in the dark.
The touchpad in the HP Pavilion 14 review 2016 like literally everyone. Firstly, it is large, and secondly, has good sensitivity. In addition, the smooth surface of the touch area is excellent glide your fingers, that not only does not interfere with the convenience of position but also to perform multi-touch gestures, such as using the zoom, resize images. I must say that the touchpad hides the two mouse buttons. Their functionality you will not be infringed by pressing the right and left lower corners of the touchpad.
PERFORMANCE
HP Pavilion 14 review 2016 (X8P99EA) runs on preloaded Windows 10 Home 64-bit version. The configuration, which we consider in the review, is equipped with a low-voltage processor Intel Core i3-6100U, which is used in the creation of 14-nanometer technology. The processor runs at 2.3 GHz, has a cache memory of the third level in the volume of 3 MB. It should be noted that the dual-core CPU, using multithreading technology, it can process up to four data streams.
Sixth-generation Core i3-6100U Skylake complemented by Intel HD graphics Graphics 520. Graphics Accelerator supports DirectX 12, decodes the video well, and provides a unified 24 flow gameplay is average when it comes to toys undemanding. For example, FIFA 16 goes on high settings at a resolution of 1366×768 pixels and a frequency of about 33-34 fps. Here Battlefield Hardline will be less playable even on the medium.
But the volume and standard notebook memory, sure to please. Thus, the user is offered a 2GB and 4GB in the second module, ie, you can use a total of up to 6 GB of RAM. Furthermore, RAM is a standard DDR4 2133 MHz bus frequency. It is obvious that this capacity will not be sufficient for the stability of the system even at five or more running programs.
Typically for the presence of a modern laptop SSD, and it is available. Of course, its volume is not very large, but 128 GB as well, if stored documents, a few photos, video. In general, it is not necessary to seek to score storage all in a row. But this type of drive is an indisputable advantage – high speed.

When this charging cycle is carried out until 90% 45-watt power supply and a half hours. This rapid process is possible thanks to the support of HP Fast Charge technology.
CONCLUSION

It does not cause conflicting emotions, as well-equipped with modern components, the IPS-display with a Full HD-resolution, speaker Bang & Olufsen, and not too diverse, but all the necessary ports and connectors.
