Is the 1600 x 900 screen sharp enough?

It is usable for documents and web browsing, but at 17.3 inches the pixel density is low. Text looks softer than on a 1080p panel, and photos and video show less detail.

How long does the battery really last?

HP claims up to 20 hours. Real-world use with brightness up and several browser tabs will fall well short of that, so expect a full workday rather than two.

Can I upgrade the RAM and storage?

HP lists support for up to 64 GB of RAM, so the 8 GB and 16 GB configurations can be expanded. Storage comes as a solid-state drive in 512 GB, 1 TB or 2 TB sizes.

Is it good for gaming or video editing?

No. It uses Intel integrated graphics and a 60Hz panel, so it handles office work and streaming but struggles with modern games and heavy editing.

What ports does it have?

It has USB-A, USB-C and HDMI, which covers a mouse, an external monitor and most accessories without a hub.

Is the touchscreen worth it on a laptop this size?

It helps with scrolling, forms and presentations, but most buyers will use the keyboard and mouse. Treat it as a bonus rather than the reason to buy.

Our take on the HP 17.3" Touchscreen Business Copilot AI Laptop

This is a large-screen HP laptop aimed at office work, with a 17.3-inch touchscreen, an Intel processor, a solid-state drive and a fingerprint reader. The big draw is the 17.3-inch touch display and the claimed 20-hour battery life, which is unusually long for a laptop this size. The trade-offs are real: the screen resolution is only 1600 x 900, so text and photos look less sharp than on 1080p or higher panels, and at 4.6 lb it is a desk-first machine. Compared with 15.6-inch business laptops, it gives you more screen and a numpad-friendly chassis but less portability and a lower-resolution panel than most rivals at this size.
