Which should you buy, HP Laptop 17 or Lenovo IdeaPad 1 15AMN7?

Buy the HP Laptop 17 for buyers who want the largest screen at the lowest price, though it is not the pick for portability and dual-channel RAM performance. The Lenovo IdeaPad 1 15AMN7 is the one to take for budget buyers who may add RAM later, though it is the wrong buy for performance-sensitive users. Our rating of the HP Laptop 17 (6.2/10): the HP 17-cn3 is about screen size. It has a 17.3-inch 1920 x 1080 IPS display, a Core i5-1334U and 8GB of DDR4, which gives you plenty of room for spreadsheets, documents and side-by-side windows at a desk. At 1.98 kg with a 41 Wh battery, it is not a laptop to carry around all day. Both RAM slots are filled and the maximum is 16GB, so memory is a limit. It also has WiFi 5 and no Thunderbolt.

Where the two are identical
