If you want to listen to music, watch TV or films, then then the Pavilion is a good choice because it has some of the best audio around for a laptop within this class. It comes with Bang & Olufsen Audio and HP Audio Boost. Since The Pavilion is a 360, it really is versatile. Micro Gears allow the display to roll around the base in one continuous movement, so from Notebook Mode you can rotate it around to Tent Mode and it’ll stay there until you want to adjust again. There is an IPS display so you can look at the screen from any angle and the picture should always be crisp.
Under the hood, you’ll find 500 GB of hard drive capacity, 6 GB of system memory, and a processor speed of 2.4 GHz. The Pavilion has a Windows 10 operating system, but only has an 8.5-hour battery life.
