Our take on the HP 15.6" FHD AI Laptop Intel Core Ultra 5 225U

This is HP's mainstream 15.6-inch laptop built around Intel's Core Ultra 5 225U, a low-power chip aimed at everyday work rather than gaming or heavy editing. The 1920x1080 anti-glare screen, backlit keyboard, fingerprint reader and 3.6 lb body make it a practical machine for school, office and home use. Its 8 GB of RAM is the weak spot: rivals at this tier often ship 16 GB, and 8 GB fills up fast with many browser tabs or large spreadsheets. Buyers rate it well overall, praising the screen and light weight while flagging memory and battery as the limits.

Best forStudents and office workers doing documents, email and video callsHome users who want a light 15-inch laptop with a fingerprint loginBuyers who prefer a matte screen over a glossy one
Pros
  • Sharp 1080p anti-glare screen that stays readable in bright rooms
  • Light at 3.6 lb for a 15.6-inch laptop
  • Backlit keyboard and fingerprint reader at an everyday tier
  • Core Ultra 5 225U handles web, Office and streaming without strain
  • Energy Star and EPEAT registered, with HDMI for external monitors
Cons
  • 8 GB RAM is hard to live with and often soldered, so plan ahead
  • 512 GB SSD leaves little room for large media libraries
  • 1.5 GHz base clock means sustained heavy tasks slow down
  • 9 hours of rated battery is modest next to efficient rivals
  • No discrete GPU, so gaming and video editing are out

Questions and answers

Is 8 GB of RAM enough for this laptop?
For browsing, email and Office it works, but many tabs or large files will slow it. Check whether the memory is upgradeable before buying if you multitask heavily.

Yes, both are included, along with a 1080p anti-glare screen and HDMI output.
How does it compare with the previous HP 15?
The Core Ultra 5 225U brings newer efficiency and AI features over older 13th-gen chips, but the 8 GB memory and 512 GB storage carry over unchanged.

The matte, no-glare finish helps in bright rooms, though 1080p brightness is average for direct sunlight.
