HP 14s- DQ3018TU Laptop Detailed Review
Performance
The HP 14s- DQ3018TU is designed to be your average laptop that gets the job done. Powered by the Intel Pentium Quad Core N6000 chip, the HP 14s- DQ3018TU does not have the power to run through AAA games but normal office work will be a breeze. The chipset makes sure that your laptop can handle day-to-day tasks without any whims. With a top speed of 3.3 GHz, the Intel Pentium Quad Core N6000 chip uses Intel’s proprietary Max Turbo Boost technology to improve its performance. That 3.3 GHz speed means that HP 14s- DQ3018TU can handle even some AA games with ease. You get 8 GB DDR4 RAM with a clock speed of 2933 MHz.
The graphics on the HP 14s- DQ3018TU are handled by an integrated Intel UHD Graphics Card. The graphics capabilities are not designed for gamers but then this laptop is meant for office goers rather than hardcore gamers. For normal office users of laptops and even students, the HP 14s- DQ3018TU is fast enough to keep up with you.
Summary
The HP 14s- DQ3018TU offers commendable speed for a laptop in its price range and is perfect for light users who travel a lot.
Battery & Features
The HP 14s- DQ3018TU gives a respectable battery backup of claimed 12 hours of regular usage. Running on a 3 cell 41 Whr Li-ion battery the HP 14s- DQ3018TU packs an average size battery with just enough juice to be there for the important moments of the day. You get an inbuilt internal microphone and a webcam that supports the recording of video definitions up to 720p. You also get dual speakers to produce crisp and immersive sounds. You also get built-in support for Alexa which is a rare feature in this price range. There is no optical drive though which is common in the laptops of today. You get a standard QWERTY keyboard and a touchpad that supports multiple gestures and has multi-touch capabilities. The keyboard is a bit disappointing with the keys being wobbly and the overall finish on the keyboard being below average. The HP 14s- DQ3018TU supports WiFi v802.11 and Bluetooth v4.2 along with various ports namely a card reader, a USB type C port, 2 USB 3.0 ports, and an HDMI port.
Summary
The battery is not that huge but that is perhaps to avoid heavyweight on the laptop. There is just enough juice in the laptop to be there for the important moments.
Display
The HP 14s- DQ3018TU has a 14 inch LED screen. The color tones are on the average side but not so much as to lose originality. The screen has a resolution of 1366 x 768 pixels with a pixel density of 112 pixels per inch (approx.). The HP 14s- DQ3018TU supports full HD resolution but watching movies might not be your first thought for this laptop. There are features like HP Micro-edge to improve the screen display but certain view angles are very uncomfortable. The screen has a brightness of 250 nits with Brightview technology and a 45% NTSC display. For those of us not with a tech background, NTSC is a measure of the color gradient and 45% NTSC is good for office work but not for animation work.
Summary
The HP 14s- DQ3018TU screen lacks a bit in certain sections while doing good in others. For normal office work, the screen should be perfect but for movie watchers, you might want to look at other options.
Design
HP has done an above-average job on the HP 14s- DQ3018TU in terms of design. Besides giving the plastic exterior a good finish, there is not much innovation in the design of the HP 14s- DQ3018TU. The bezels are chunky and the laptop certainly lacks a premium touch. But with a modest price tag, The HP 14s- DQ3018TU has a very light outer body and is designed to ease the regular handling of the laptop. There are speakers with Dolby Audio at the bottom of the HP 14s- DQ3018TU and you also get a 180-degree hinge mating the display to the keyboard. This means the occasional over-extension of the screen will not be sending you to the repair shop. The HP 14s- DQ3018TU has an efficient cooling system but nothing too fancy or robust. Be wary of doing any CPU-intensive task for a prolonged time as the laptop will become considerably hot. The chipset and the components that accompany it are optimized to offer lightning-fast response and storage options, the SSD with PCle NVMe buses is fast enough to keep pace with the system. With so many features you would expect the HP 14s- DQ3018TU to be a heavy bulky design but the makers at HP made sure that the laptop weighs in at just 1.47 kgs. Out of the box, you get a Windows 10 Home Basic, a 64-bit architecture with a reflective HP logo.
Summary
The design keeps the laptop light and allows you to carry it with you for as long as you want.
