About the HP 17-cn3083st 17.3" FHD Laptop Core i3-N305

The HP 17-cn3083st is a 17.3-inch full-HD laptop built around Intel's Core i3-N305, an eight-core efficiency chip with 8 GB of RAM and a 512 GB SSD. It is a big-screen machine for desk work, browsing and streaming, with a backlit keyboard, a matte display and USB-C plus HDMI. At $399.99 at Staples as of November 3, 2026, it sits at the low end of what this model has sold for, and seven stores listing it new means you can compare before buying.

8 GB RAM is soldered-class capacity for light use only
  • 4.6 lb and a 17-inch body are hard to carry daily
  • 60Hz panel and integrated graphics rule out gaming
  • 7 hours of battery is modest for the size

    • What reviewers say

    Owner feedback on the 17-cn3000 series is generally positive, with the large screen and low price carrying the most weight. Complaints tend to focus on weight and on performance once many browser tabs are open.

    Pros
    • Big, clear 1080p display
    • Easy setup and quiet operation
    • Good value for a 17-inch laptop
    • Comfortable backlit keyboard
    Cons
    • Heavy to move around
    • Slows with many tabs on 8 GB RAM
    • Battery falls short of a full workday
    • Plastic chassis feels basic

    Questions and answers

    Is the HP 17-cn3083st worth it at $399.99?
    Yes, if you want a large screen for desk work and light multitasking. At $399.99 at Staples as of November 3, 2026, it is near the bottom of its recent price range, and few 17-inch laptops cost less.
    Can I upgrade the RAM or storage?
    The 512 GB SSD can be swapped for a larger drive. The 8 GB of memory is the practical ceiling for most buyers, so plan on light multitasking rather than upgrades.
    Is the Core i3-N305 fast enough?
    It is fine for web browsing, email, documents and streaming. It is not built for video editing, heavy spreadsheets or gaming, and 8 GB of RAM limits how many tabs you can keep open.
    How long does the battery last?
    HP rates it at about 7 hours. Expect closer to 4 to 6 hours of real mixed use, so keep the charger nearby for full days away from an outlet.
    Does it have a numpad and a backlit keyboard?
    Yes. The 17-inch chassis fits a full keyboard with a number pad, and the keys are backlit for dim rooms.
    When is it cheapest?
    Large-screen budget laptops like this one usually drop during back-to-school and Black Friday sales. The current $399.99 at Staples is already a low point, so waiting is only worth it if you can hold out for a holiday promotion.
