Stephanie, thank you for your question about the differences in laptops and their pricing. Aside from components, features and physical construction of laptops influence the price. This model is made entirely from plastic while the shells in HP's premium laptops are made of metal. Metal construction is ideal for someone who moves around, like a student or someone who travels for work. Keyboard backlighting, touchscreen, and foldability also influence the price. At the component level, not all processors or components are made equal. Some current models may have the previous generation of processor and running DDR4 memory, which is slower than the current DDR5. If you have any questions about these, you can partner with a Best Buy sales associate and they will help you find a laptop that not only meets your needs now, but has feature-readiness and durability.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Specs aren't everything, as the HP response points out. There are also features, like backlit keyboards, amount and type of connectors, separate vs. integrated video cards, size, battery life, ease of repair/upgrade, type of screen (resolution, folding, touch, compatible with stylus, etc.), weight, warranty, software, company reputation, camera/microphone/speaker quality, customer support, etc.
