The HP Elitebook 8470p, an i5 3rd gen laptop that is heavy in weight but still performs well for students and office workers. But can it play Minecraft? Will the HP Elitebook 8470 work for you in 2019? At these prices, it just might. This is a great notebook for Google docs, email, surfing, watching CZcams etc. But not so great for Fortnite or Apex legends - It can play Minecraft though.
I paid less than $100 Canadian for mine but you might not be so lucky. You will need to shop around for one

We're in 2024 June and I'm here watching this video 😂. I just got myself an elitebook 8470p and I'm gonna name him bad boy 😂
I’d name it Marty after the famous time traveller from 1885
I collect Thinkpads, but I fell in love with that HP. I got two Elitebook 8470p and an 8460p for almost nothing and I dedicated myself to restoring them. They had suffered blows that other machines would not have survived. I had to replace parts of the cases, keyboards, HDD drives with SSDs and the i5 with i7, as well as the batteries, and do a complete maintenance on them! But there they are, working like the first day. The best of hp
I like them too but I have issues with the power supply port. I prefer the 12” though
I recently bought this computer used, and i was kinda nervous about it but this definitely let me know that it was a good decision.
@Feel Okay me using it since 2015
@Fayi Sukma me using it since 2012
@@Parshva_Bora me using since 2007
Me still using...💀
I have been have this laptop now 7 years and it still working like new. I actually travel very much and for me this is not too heavy. I can trust this laptop and when some day i need to buy new laptop that gonna be a Elitebook again.
Metal case is the added weight but I think it's good protection
I have the 8470p with an i5 since 2016. 4gb of RAM weren't cutting it so I gave it 4 more on dual channel. Now it performs much better. I have a WD Blue SSD waiting for install. It should improve a lot. I love its weight, sturdiness and overall reliability and performance. Some days of the week I use it for work, 12 hours straight. Only the battery died soon since it was a used unit. But I can't complain. Prices of this model nowadays in my 3rd world country are skyrocketing.
This is my laptop too and it will always stay in my heart if i get a new laptop or pc
I have a couple more of these now that I'm going to make a video about soon. One is the HP 8570 i7 and the other is the 8460 i7.
Esme window 10 chalta ha kya
Wow and just so you know i was going on a trip last week and i bringed the laptop. AND IS SO HEAVY MY SHOULDER ARE STILL HURTING!!!
And my procesor is i5
Same
I picked up one of these as a spare some years ago just coz it was so cheap - and a couple years later entered service as my main machine. Been that way another couple years now, they are flippin amazing. it's an i7-3720QM variant with 1080 screen. Has dedicated AMD video as well but I don't play games so not worried about that.
Had a newer flashier looking Toshiba i7 as my main machine but that thing caused me DAYS of lost time over several years. From proprietary non-standard EFI/BIOS issues - refused to boot linux until I did something accidentally to make it work, then couple years later screwed up so another day lost. Turns out the useless UEFI coders hard-coded the window loader path into UEFI even though you're meant to be able to set a pointer to another one! I also had issues with the 5Ghz wifi on it (half the time seemed dead/non-existent), and it took 16 screws just to remove the back cover. I spilled coffee in it while away housesitting and the keyboard went all wonky, but back home I always used an external keyboard so I kept using it. Some months later there was a loud pop and the bluetooth was no more - I must accept that was probably motherboard corrosion from the coffee. After another year it finally gave out its last gasp, rolled over onto its side and crashed the O/S. She wouldn't boot no more.
I whipped out the SSD and the 16GB RAM and within minutes the Elitebook was up and running with my same old familiar desktop. Zero UEFI/BIOS issues. Zero driver issues. "It just works". And now I understand why a company would pay $2000 for one of these when a similar spec (on paper) consumer model can usually be had for less than half that price. It's the maturity of the BIOS and the hardware chosen. I'm a convert. I've bought my last consumer grade machine. It gets clogged up and overheats the same as all laptops (maybe I should vacuum my house more) but as you showed the back comes off in seconds and the fan lifts out with 2 small screws.
When my sister asked me to help her choose a new All-In-One machine I was really disappointed at the specs for the prices being asked. So I found her an equally robust used Elitebook model AiO. She paid a quarter of what she was going to spend and ended up with better specs and better build quality. Only downside was lack of warranty (but you can buy two of them) and it's heavy. Once again it's all quick easy access and everything just works! No drama with resetting BIos/UEFI stuff and performing a fresh O/S install.
yeah, you get what you pay for. I typically suggest Lenovo or Dell but HP is also good. I've just had issues with the power supply ports. I'll be making a HP AIO video soon on the Elite 8300 running Windows 11
Back when companies were actually trying. I also absolutely love how these 10+ year old tanks can still run and be loved by many people quite well. Can still be a good friend for day to day tasks. Makes me want to own one haha.
This is such a good and honest review! This really helped me out researching affordable laptops, and it's the highest quality review I've seen so far! Subscribed
Thanks Dylan. I have a few more coming up, the x240 and a couple of cheap tablets.
@@MikeDancy Nice reviews Sir.... Honestly you review with no exceptions...... I really wish I could get one of this laptop
I am using this laptop its my first laptop in 2022 so it is second hand i am using for study purpose then also this laptop runs very will even in this time era of laptop this laptop is good..i can say great laptop in that. time
as a student with a low budget this laptop is actually pretty good , i just upgraded the ram to 8 gigs and thats it , still works very well
Do you know if it can handle apex?
Tbh i really like this laptop's keyboard. I used to use macbook a1278 for a long time and this hp one is not a lot different. That's why i was able to switch to it really easily. And i don't know how it is in the us but in europe on every keyboard you have the "Alt Gr" key. I was really suprised that you mentioned that as something unusuall.
I got this laptop yesterday for my little brother so he can do his class work from home because of this virus. It's a great laptop for college work and as a desktop replacement. If you will have it in one place then it's perfect. If you are looking to move it around, it's not mobile because of its weight. For homework it's perfect. For anything else probably not. As an i5 it's great value and solid as fuck.
I have this laptop, i take it with me to college and university in a bagpack, yes can be quite weighty as well as other items if carried for a long time but not impossible to carry, i photoshop with it and it works really well no problems, although would recommend an ssd like the one shown, not terrible with a hdd but certainly an improvement with an ssd, very good for a 2012 laptop
I have a video on the 8460 i7 coming out soon. It’s my new favourite
I have the i7 version with 8gb SSD. Excellent build quality. Still a great laptop.
Yes this is my loptop in 2020.. and a lot of Iraniam people use this love !!
It's a really nice machine. I find that HP tend to have a lot of power supply issues personally which is why I prefer Lenovo though.
How to use it for graphic works
@@MehrTV. donyt forget thermal paste
I have this computer and it works really good.
Is it good for gaming
@@yashjoshi3084 low graphics games run very good on this computer.I dont know about high graphics games such as GTA 5 bcus I never downloaded those games.
@@sameermohammed2630 Muse Dash works great!
I got one with a 500 gb HD and a I7-3740QM, the 8570p. Same chassis, keyboard, ect. I replaced the HDD with a WD Blue 250gb SSD. Best laptop I have ever owned to date. Also, lousy sound so I use aUSB soundbar.
Funny you should mention that. I also just got a 8570 i7 and I’m working on the video for it now.
I have the 8470p. I have installed Windows 10 on 240GB SSD + Harddrive Cdyy with 2TB, i nstalled 12 GB of ram. Games run smoth with tweaks. Like GTA V runs with 30 - 40 FPS with low settings with the integradet intel HD 4000. Sorry for my bad English :D
How do you install Windows please
i am typing this scomment right now with this laptop and let me trell you the fans are SO LOUD
yeah fax
This model also has a 1600x900 option for the display panel. Your model has a 1366x768 panel.
I am watching this video on this exact laptop and it, has served my family well for 6-7 years. This laptop is 10 years old as of 2022.
Is it still running fine?
And how about This elitebook vs Pavilion dm4 i5 2nd, which one would be better.?
I love the industrial design such a unit
i just bought ssd for it and it works beautifully
Yeah. That makes a huge difference in speed. I’m putting one into a 2008 Mac Pro this week to see how it runs
I got a 8460p from the lost and found at work. I plan to go 16 G ram, 500 gb ssd, I7 3632qm and Win 10. It'll be a good laptop for traveling.
That’s a nice find.
Wow lucky person
Where will you get drivers for win10? HP doesn't provide them.
@@nomad7480 Windows 10 did all the work when I put in the new ssd.
@@eidolusgad3818 Yes but if you go to Device Manager you'll see yellow exclamations ))
i've had this laptop for yeeears! he's a sweet old grandpa and it runs so well! games run great! even genshin impact runs ok.
Can u play valorant
Can you play gmod and TF2?
i own the exact same laptop, and i play both brawlhalla and og starcraft on it. and oh yeah i have blender too... they run very well. what annoys me is the battery life
edit: i've uninstalled both and currently plays valorant in it! it runs smoothly
I actually have this laptop and it runs Kubuntu 19.10, with 8gb ram and a 500gb Samsung Evo ssd, and I upgraded from the i5 3320m to the i7-3612qm. It actually works super great and it's my favorite laptop to type on. I also have AN HP Omen 2018, on which typing is atrocious. I think you were correct when you said you were used to typing on the Lenovo, which by all accounts have fantastic keyboards.
you upgraded the processor??
@@pandora5573 absolutely. I was lucky that this was a socketed cpu. Pga988 i think was the socket and it was 35w, so i found a 35w ivy bridge quad core and hoped for the best. The turbo isn't as high as id like, so im considering trying some of the 45w ones that turbo to 3.7.
I am running Kubuntu 18.04 on it, with 6 gigs of ram and 500 HDD.
Compared to i3 7th and 8th gen models this works on toe to toe with them even though it's old
Ayo, I Brought the exact same model, Used, and it'll surprise alot of people that I've got it for a shocking price for value.
Used yet literally Brand New, Clean on the inside, battery condition flawless, 4 gb of ram, 1tb SSD, every accessory with it.
It had a major issue with windows 10, every time I left clicked the touch pad it would rotate the screen unconditionally, but I fixed it simply by disabling rotate screen, and it performs flawlessly afterwards...
I purchased it for $103
Best buy ever
did you put a SSD into it? That makes a huge difference.
@@MikeDancy came with it, I opened the back panel to see the exact specs
@@MikeDancy it's a Samsung V-NAND
Damn thats some really good find! Hope you installed 8 or 16GB RAM(trust me, it makes a huge difference) and upgraded CPU to i7 if it didnt already have one.
@@twobad8470 I Swapped the memory out for two 8gb sticks of 1333hz DDR3 ram, and installed I think it's a 4th or 5th gen i7 processor, the processor was a pain, the thermal paste was bone dry, seems the one I got was well used but we'll maintained, and then left in a storage box for awhile, I probably gotta upgrade the wifi/Bluetooth receiver, as it's wirelessly capable of 4mb download and 2mb upload, but beside that it can run games super well and can have 20 tabs on chrome of Rick astleys never gonna give you up
I'm currently using its smaller brother 2570p i7 similar spec.The screen resolution of 1366×768 is a bummer for these laptops, however the Intel HD graphics 4000 handles external monitor 3440 x 1440 resolution pretty well, so much so I don't feel the need to upgrade to a newer laptop just yet.
I think my mom has this exact laptop? Yeah basically the same thing except for the power buttons. I sometimes use it for playing Roblox when she isn’t using it for work, and the performance is actually awesome for a laptop! I love it, and I kinda recommend it for people who want a budget (kinda) laptop!
You can play everything on direct 9 ...i love it .

A great laptop
Watching from Elitebook 8470p
My next videos are the 8570 and 8460
Is it good for designers ?
me too
Same!
I have this exact laptop and the only problem i have with it is the fan noise, it is just super loud. Even though i have cleaned the fans and fixed the airflow.
Yea the fan its too loud because i have too
@@raiiplaysgamesro9722 my fan(s) are hardly even noticed, try changing the power profile and cpu cooling to passive, then it'll prefer to lower the cpu speed instead of increasing fan speed.
I have the 8460p now and its the best pc I ever had
I just got my 8470p yesterday and man that was a great choice of me instead of buying newer budget laptops👌
Man I have this machine for almost 4 years, I have a core i7 16GB 500GB the best thing bout this machine is the keyboard I couldn't move to any other laptop because I get used to this comfortable keyboard
I just pickup a 8570 and am about to make a video on it
i bought this laptop in October of 2021, i did drop it a few times, but not enough time break it physically. in February 2024, i downloaded fortnite on it to play with a friend, and it took forever to download, and once it did, it crashed. it would glitch out during matches, it would be black for a few days before turning on again, and it eventually didnt turn back on. so, if you want to buy a laptop to download games, dont get this one!!! other than that its an okay laptop
Thanks, very helpful review 😊
My hp elitebook 8470p has an i7 8gb ram and ssd 256gb and it works pretty well it never sticks
With intel HD4000 it's pretty fast, and even in some PC games like StarCraft 2.
Led is a useful thing for me. Actually, It works in dark time.
I'm a college student with a low budget and just ordered one with 8g and 500 gb hard drive.
Solid. I have one that I upgraded with an SSD and I say, if you can afford it, get an SSD.
@@LotsChrono yeah that's what I got.I am so excited to start using it
@@christophercortes9916 Great, then I wish you the best with it.
@@LotsChrono thank you
What are your thought about it? Do you like it? Would you also recommend it ? Im thinking of buying one for myself.
Sound of this laptop is very low , i have been using it since long i am from India i also got it in low cost. Except Speaker quality rest all good. I use it for office work.
install the windows 7 audio driver sp60317. Solves the problem. Now i have to turn my volume down.
I still having this laptop. I have two 8470p This laptop is very good. And mine both laptops are brand new. Not even a single scratch or dent
did you upgrade your ram or processor?
What operating system do you use?
"I don't know what that is" then stops and smiled
"Alt gr, alt green"
🤣 Sor you give me a good laugh there 👌👌
thank you,I'm gona buy this
you should buy two.. one for each hand and one for each eyeball.
Hello Sir! Thank you for the review, I am now using this laptop.. I really love it! However, the rubber around its lcd frame has been removed.. is it safe to close the lid without it? Especially for the screen..
Thank you so much!
Actually this is my laptop and I have 3! 16 Gb ram, SSD and a docking station. It ii a great laptop!
I just bought another one, a 8570 i7 quad core. Looking forward to putting Fedora and Ubuntu on it
@@MikeDancy Yeah, my third one was bought for the same reason!
The keyboard is it Is the keyboard backlighting??
Sorry I'm French I use Google translation
Bro I have dropped mine over 20 times sometimes a few feet off the ground & it always works fine
Plays older games like Diablo2 WoW tbc classic pretty good
You can see the keys at night in the dark. that light is very useful.
um i own the same laptop...
how to turn the keyboard lights on?
edit: nvm i get it now, it uses lid light instead of backlight keyboard
That light is useless.
@@michaelkeudel8770 You can use it to see about 50% of your keyboard in the dark it has some usefulness to it but its not annoying as useful truthfully
@@sumpeoplesuck no seriously, the light is useless. The glow from the screen has more light than that dim led.
In 2018 I got 3 of these babies for free, great to have for throwing around in the car etc, I really like the ruggedness. Only thing I have to complain about is the low resolution, no HDMI port, and the speakers are horrible...
I keep a 8460 i7 as my backup machine since it’s so bulletproof
Use a displayport to hdmi adapter, they only cost $10, works great. Got mine setup with a 32 inch Scepter 1080p TV as a 2nd monitor. TV was only $130 brand new from Walmart.
i just purchased one form offer up , with a i5 vpro 2530m for 40 $ two minor dents and much other wear and tear. Cant beat the price located in houston tx
I just bought the 8570 with the i7 quad core. $150 CDN it’s next to be reviewed
Cool I will be sure to check it out .great content , yall guys have a new sub.
As a simple Office Box this model ist cheap, functional and has all you need in you daily office work. I buy these one for 50eur, upgrade on 16gb ram, add 500gb ssd, add large dock with integrated 1tb hdd for backup and at the end all for under 150eur. If something gone defect you can reach ALL inside easily and exchange. Windows 10 or Linux is running fine. 1A
For gaming some 8470p models have a dedicated amd graphics. But these are very seldom on ebay or other second hand platforms.
But the version with the intel graphics also run games like CS or other Games from this time. =)
I just bought (received actually) one for £50!
The Alt Gr button is on every belgian and I think even european keyboard cause over here there are buttons that serve 3 signs.
So you use the button, the button+shift and button+altgr for the third sign
thanks a lot Mike
the laptop is actually pretty good for minecraft! if you install optifine which is a mod that makes minecraft run smoother, change some video settings, and change it so minecraft uses more of your computers ram than it will work pretty well! i get 40-60
frames on 10 chunks doing these methods
Thanks. That’s good to know. I might try it on another machine I’m texting now.
Yes this is my gaming computer (customized) it has a i9 proccesor , 4TB HDD, 2TB SSD, GTX , 64 GB RAM . The best computer ever
I had no idea that you could swap the processor out that easily. how did you get that much ram in it?
@@MikeDancy easly just put a 64gb ram in it , for me the laptop was £175 but i upgraded it and it's about £620 the things i got was second hand but who cares ? It runs way better and its cheap if i would get everything new it will be around £1000 maybe..
May I asked how you added the gpu and how you used a 64 ram because I though it’s locked on 16 only
Oh and what I9 processor model thank you
Great vid and it's convinced me to buy one. I'm getting the i5 version with a ssd and 8gb. I wanted to ask if I upgraded the processor to the i7which i7 processor would be best used to upgrade the laptop?
I’m too lazy to upgrade a processor. I might try it one day though
Hp 3210..HD intel 4000!! To gaming graphic? Should i upgrade that laptop??
Is the trackpad clickable kinda like the Mac's or do you have to press a button to click
It’s not clickable from what I remember. You need to use the buttons.
@@MikeDancy I use 8560P you dont have too click on the buttons
@@MikeDancy you can actually just tap on the track pad
Hello! Great vid man, keep up the great work. I happen to have the exact same one and I am interested in upgrading it. I want to upgrade to an i7-3740QM. Is that possible? Also, what is the maximum amount of ram and ssd that it can be upgraded to?
Can,i have my laptop elitebook 8470p with i7 processor and 4gb ram😁 and 500gb hdd i bought it 3 months ago.the max ram is 16gb,ssd storage max capacity im not sure about it.
I wish I could get one of these 😭
I wish you to get it as soon as possible! I was also like you when I watched this video and I prayed to God to get one of this and after a hard work and savings I managed to get it and Im very happy with it! In fact, Im typing from it as well :)
watching this from my "elitebook 8470p" core i5 500gb 4gb ram
Same bro
Alt Gr = "Alternative Graphics", it lets you type different characters, e.g. æßðđ (by holding Alt Gr and typing asdf)
"internet explorer beta"
that sounds like the most unstable browser of all time
Im an university student , i wanna kn whenever this laptop was good for programming (language c ,c++ , java ...) .
I think buying a dell latitude e7440 with an i7 is a better option and will serve you much better while bding capable of light gaming
I guess it depends on the games. You’ll need a SSD for sure though.
The hard drive models are to slow and obsolete by today's standards. I doubt you'd be doing much heavy gaming how ever something lighter like Fortnite or Minecraft will run fine.
Hey I like memes oof not really, depends on the other specs. I run brand new games off of a hard drive.
For 385 aud (which is 264 usd) I found a refurbished dell latitude e7440 with an i7 4600U, 256gb SSD, 16gbs of ram and a 1080p ips display all of which is in being grade condition.
@@kiegancarstens3013 also I say that because I think only having a hard drive is garbage maybe as a secondary drive in your optical drive assuming you have one but you need some kind of SSD
My 8470p laptop has i7 and the resolution is 1600x900.
i have this same laptop! :D
I'm thinking about buying this kind of laptop but the one i found doesn't have standard "Intel HD Graphics 4000 " graphics card but an "AMD Radeon HD 7570M".
I don't need this laptop for something demanding, but i will love if it will play a game like "League of Legends".
I've never tried league of legends on it but I might try it on a similar machine. It's not a graphic intensive game so it should do okay.
League can run on a potato so integrated graphics should be good enough... however the radeon graphics are perfect for a game like that.
Yeah playing any type of fps though doesn't work too well on it unfortunately, but league should be fine
I don’t think it will work
@@sg10hd77 maybe your right
as a person who uses hp elitebook 8470p , I can confirm that the laptop is indistrictuable
The nice part about CPU is upgrade, it is socketed and can handle i7-3540m (2x3,0 Ghz + HT). Not sure about quadcores i7-3xxxQM.
Quad cores also work, just follow the service manual specs for whats compatible. I'm grabbing a 3610QM for mine.
Hi Mike, hope all is well. I believe my ACER is finally ready to retire. I always figured I'd check with you before going to a retailer for a replacement. A used computer is fine. No gaming involved. Business programs and downloading TV shows and Movies. What's your suggestion these days? I noticed the new computers have no port for me to hook up my external monitor. Is there a work around? You may remember me from other comments, I live in B town as well. Planning to watch a few more of your more recent videos later today.
Also plan to end my Dropbox subscription and maybe buy an external HD. Any thoughts you have on it would be welcome. Or maybe just go with google drive, not sure.
Hey Randy! What’s your budget and what kind of monitor do you want to attach it to? VGA ? DVI?
@@MikeDancy Didn't have a budget in mind. After seeing the Costco laptops I thought I would visit Canada Computers by the 410 and Queen. Then I thought of you I have a 2011 Hannspree Generic PnP Monitor. I can't see if it's VGA or DVI
I am used to the keyboard cause its the exact same as the mac besides the little c stick in between the g and h keys
Does this laptop have a disk tray to play old pc games, I'm thinking of purchasing one
it does have an optical drive.
I have Hp Elite Book 8470p and it is very good
Can you run Adobe applications and other photo editing softwares on it smoothly?? please tell me about its performance in details
Ihave this Laptop now and he work perfect
I fly nighttime flight Sims... It's useful then as no backlit
If buying second hand make sure it doesn't have a BIOS password as theres no way to get around it apart from re-flashing the BIOS or installing a fresh BIOS.
Also, it has DisplayPort, not HDMI. So you'll either need a DP to HDMI converter cable/adaptor or a new HDMI to DP cable for your monitor/TV. And you can forget about waking it up with a WiFi keyboard from your lounge chair, it doesn't work. Only notebook I've used that doesn't work with.
And yeah its heavy. That said, overall its not a bad unit for general use. Just no good as a loungeroom PC.
I use it and run Cubase software on it..
Runs fine.
So you think it will run Serato Lite well?
Yeah you got an IGPU if you had a AMD GPU like 7400M you'll get alot ton more FPS
Is that a good laptop for heavy softwares like AutoCad, Revit, Photoshop, Sketchup etc?
You’d be better off with the dell precision m6800 or something along that line. The HP doesn’t have a hardcore video card. I think it’s on the cpu.
The 8570p has a 15.6 inches IPS display and with intel i5 3210m/HD4000 GPU/8GB dual channel Ram/500GB Hdd it's pretty good in Photoshop and lightroom. So, I assume it will be good enough in other soft you mentioned. But for hardcore scenarios you had better bought something with professional discrete GPU.
I have this laptop and i use all adobe programs on it perfectly 👍 would recommend an ssd though if it has one, easy to change and not too expensive
Hi thx for the vidéo i would like to use it for vidéo montage with adope softwares. What do you think ?
I don’t use adobe and I no longer have that computer.
Hey Mike how it would run illustrator cs 6? For some basic illustrations, not too much clipping masks etc.
I don’t know. I’ve never used them. I’d suggest a i7-3rd gen or a Dell Precision M model. They have built in GPU’s
i have the same one and i run minecraft at 50fps maybe your mc settings are maxed out
It can play gta 5 bro. This laptop is awesome but I think people's don't know to use this laptop

I have elitebook 8560 with corei5/8gb. Has horrible overheating issue. Can't edit FHD vids. Cause it crawls while editing. Rendering is a pain in the ass. It's So bad I don't consider buying an Hp elitebook again. How would you convince me of getting this? Someone in my area is selling similar model in this review. Thanks in advance
I wouldn't suggest any laptop for video editing. That's for either Mac's or desktops with graphic cards. These are business grade laptops meant for spreadsheets.
@@MikeDancyi understand that. But compared to other laptops with the same specs... Like i can edit same video files on my brother's thinkpad t240 with minimal lags.
It’s supposed to be a budget laptop because it’s 8 years old. I’m running 8470p but upgraded cpu ram and ssd for cheap and it runs like a monster cheaper than a budget pc for everyday use
My laptop crashed.. I really wish I can get this laptop 😔
hi, i have this exact laptop i am using right now and for sale in good condition. It's a good laptop bang for buck. i'm in NW Calgary if you have a ready buyer!!!! Thanks in advance
Hi. I'm planning to buy this model. Is this really one of the best laptops for online class and maybe for gaming too? Please help me decide huhu
compared to lenovo x230, which one do you prefer? since both have exactly same processor but different lcd size
I’d take the x230 personally. I like the portable size and Lenovo build and quality.
glad to hear that, cause i own one of those x230. same as your opinion, i like a compact and portable laptop just like x230. having upgraded it to msata 256gb + ssd sata 128gb and 8gb ram, run very smooth, btw i used it for web programming. but on one cons, the fan realllyyyy small, it causes overheat often. thinking of change it into 8570p, well maybe i'll try it myself later. thanks for your review anyway
one more subs for you
@@agungprasetyo6158 Sounds like it would be certainly worthwhile to dissasemble it and clean the fan, and replacing the thermal paste if you feel comfortable doing that.
I have to say though I feel like these factory applications on at least my HP laptops were so decent that it COULD have been better to leave it.
Although I did remove heatsink to clean properly as there was just a lot of crap there lol. Still, at least my 8470p ran fine before cleaning lol.. Would have been super interesting to just clean as best as I can without interfering with the TIM.
please can it screen record smoothly? with obs studio?
Screen recording it’s fine. But not if you’re recording a game with OBS. Maybe minesweeper
Thanks 🙏
I'm playing COD MW3 on this but mine's an i7
I7 is much faster so it can run mid games
@@Dave_mitchz the main limit here is the hd4000 which is dogshit for most games. Having an i3 vs an i9 if you have a gtx 950 won't make a difference
@@TacticalPhoenixYT bro this is 10 months ago
@@Dave_mitchz I know, but my point still stands.
Bro I have this laptop. Anyway I can use the screen as a TV for my PS2 and PS3? Thanks x
Maybe if you run OBS and get a video capture card
my friend have two laptop one is lenovo think pad yoga 12 and other is hp elitebook 8470 which is best for me.
I would take the thinkpad yoga. I'm a lenovo fan boy though
if i buy this laptop will it get hot when browsing the internet ?
Depends what kind of adult sites you like to watch.
mine gets slightly warm but nowhere near hot. Get it, ive had it for a year now, i got it for $120.Honestly the best little machine I've personally owned in a while. I mainly use mine for school, youtube watching and light music recording. I even spilled soda all over the keyboard and it freaked out for a good month then it just went back to running like it did when i got it. No issues since.
@@MikeDancy Will you be doing a top 10 list of them? (Purely for educational purposes.)
@@cumulusvapes7 top ten porn sites? sure.
Mine gets pretty hot. Don't know if that is normal or not.
