As a student, unless my parents are willing to pay masses (which they usually aren't) I can't afford to get the most expensive gadgets and I needed a laptop that would be reliable and cheap at the same. A friend recommended I get a HP, as you aren't paying a premium price and you get a reasonably good laptop. I decided on the HP 620 as it had everything I needed in a laptop and more, the webcam allows me to take pictures, although not the best quality, but you can't expect much from a webcam! And also have video calls with my friends that live far away. The Intel Pentium t440 processor is a lot faster than my previous computer, and works extremely well for what I ...  Read the complete review

I have used this laptop for a few weeks and I am very pleased with it. Its nice and cheap so its perfect for a student or someone just looking to browse the internet without paying 100's for a desktop. It has a webcam so it is excellent for use with Skype. I used it a few times with family members in Australia and America and it didnt lag which is suprising for a laptop of this price. Also good to note that there is a HDMI slot on this laptop.

It also has 3 usb slots and I can easily ...  Read the complete review

The 620 does ship with Windows 7 Pro, but it is the 32-bit version 3. The graphics driver is Intel and is not the best 4. The 620 is quite heavy comapred to ...  Read the complete review

My old laptop's mainboard broke down and I was browsing to a huge amount of laptops for daily use. It should be able to do the daily internet browsing, email checking and office work. So I stumbled on the HP 620. I like HP laptops because they have a discreet design and I already used a HP laptop which I got at my former job. I decided to give it a try. Design It doesn't look too funky and as I already said, it's very discreet. People won't look strange at you while you're sitting in a bar or in the train and using it. Basically it feels very well built and doesn't seem to break apart when you look at it, unlike a lot of other laptops ...  Read the complete review
