A:AnswerThere are many possible differences between the processors, and it can vary by which processors and the model of said processor that you are trying to compare. You can also get various Intel Core processors of just the i3 that have different speeds, number of cores and threads. Things like speed, cache, and the consistency of the flow of the data can be affected by these differences. One way to look at a processor as like the main unit being a lake or a sea with many rivers that flow the water out to the ocean. These different rivers have varying speeds and widths that they carry this water through which allows different materials to flow down them as well. In most cases, a larger sea or lake with numerous clear rivers will allow that water to flow more rapidly. In the case of processors that water is data.
The Intel Celeron is considered an entry point from Intel. Likely few cores and threads, but in of itself might not make it any slower than an Intel Core processor when handling a singular task. Instead, most of the changes come when you try and perform multiple tasks and need to push larger amounts of data through. This can have various changes from how much power it uses to do so and that can affect the life of the battery on your device as well.
The best recommendation would be to take the model number of the processor itself and compare it with the model number of a processor from a different unit. You can often find the model number on the Best Buy site if you click on Specifications and look at Key Specs or by looking up the model number of the computer and specs to link to the HP site for that specific unit. Use those model numbers on the Intel site to compare them if you want to see the differences between the two as there is not one clear stat that differentiates the two.
When it comes to computers and making decisions about which specs you need, you will want to look at the system requirements of the software you will use from the developer's website. That information is the most useful when trying to figure out which processor will work best for you and suit your overall needs along with other specifications such as RAM and storage.
A:AnswerThank you for your question! This computer is designed for light activities (rather than heavy multitasking) such as checking email, creating word documents or spreadsheets, light web browsing, and streaming videos. For more multitasking freedom and a faster experience, I would recommend this model instead: https://www.bestbuy.com/site/hp-envy-x360-2-in-1-15-6-touch-screen-laptop-amd-ryzen-5-8gb-memory-256gb-ssd-nightfall-black/6502184.p?skuId=6502184
A:AnswerS mode is a way to keep you locked into only getting apps from the official Microsoft Windows app platform.
You can convert to normal windows version for free which will allow you to download your apps from anywhere in the web or via an external drive. The S Mode is supposed to be more secure as they won’t let you install any software that isn’t in the Microsoft store
A:AnswerThese machines are considered non-upgradeable and it would be recommended that any upgrades be done by a certified expert. If you are curious about upgrading this machine, you can contact HP Support or Geek Squad. If Geek Squad does the upgrades, it does not void the warranty of the machine, but HP will not cover the new parts.
