HP is pushing the limits on how powerful a Pavilion system can be without calling it a gaming notebook. The Pavilion 15 Power is the best and potentially most expensive in the series yet.

AMD RX 550 and GTX 1050 graphics options, dual internal storage bays; NVMe support, 1080p touchscreen and 4K UHD options, stronger chassis; improved design, powerful gaming performance, no major CPU throttling, respectable battery life

uneven surface temperatures; warm palm rest, lid could be more rigid; slightly more teetering, system fans always active; loud under load, no Thunderbolt 3 or DisplayPort, unimpressive internal speakers, difficult serviceability, limited color space, spongy clickpad

Fast

i7 processor and 15.6 inch screen, nice to play game!the keyboard backlight so cool~~

I bought this laptop just over a month ago and it worked great ... for the first day. But the next day when i went to use it, the keyboard wouldn't respond to anything. the back-light would stay on but non of the keys would register, not even the key to turn off the keyboard back-light would work.

This laptop is an absolute treat

As someone who writes about technology, one query you get all the time is regarding laptops. Most users are still befuddled about how to pick a good laptop, be it for work or for study.

If you are looking for a powerful Windows laptop, then HP Pavilion Power 15-CB052TX is clearly one of the best options out there....

Bought this laptop in hp world and i had initially thought of buying dell xps 15 9560 but due to product availability i wasn't able to purchase it. so i went for options and this laptop stood out from the bunch of other options available in the market.

Overall it is a good computer. But it is of cheap material- plastic. That is one negative. Superb specification. Computer is good for gaming and other engineering tasks due good graphics and fast procecesor.

I'm rating this laptop 5 of 5 but not without caveats. Skip to the bottom of my review for details. I bought this for myself as a gift, haha, to take advantage of the gaming performance and it did not disappoint.
