HP 15 bw075AX 2DN54PA 15.6inch

HP 15 henceforth is beginning to roll onto the store shelves for multiple big box retailers. Pricing data is difficult to find for our specific model as stores seem to price the device independently of each other. Our specific configuration has, in addition to the A12 APU, 4 GB of DDR4 RAM and a 1 TB 5400 RPM HDD. Most retail models bump the RAM up to 8 GB. The performance of the SD card reader is very similar to the HP 15, which is disappointing. Using our Toshiba Exceria Pro SDXC 64 GB UHS-II reference card, we measure transfer speeds around 30 MB/s, which is very slow, even for a budget device. Wireless speeds, on the other hand, are a noticeable improvement over the lower-tiered HP 15.
