Name: HP Pavilion 17 Computers
Brand: HP

Question 1

What are common problems with the Pavilion 17?

Accepted Answer

Age items: hinge wear from the heavy lid, cooling-path clogging (clean it), tired batteries and dim base displays — none fatal at these prices. Test under load before buying. Shopfox seller ratings and returns cover the vintage-laptop risk. Check the current listing details and price history on Shopfox before you buy.

Question 2

Pavilion 17 or HP 17-cn - which should you buy?

Accepted Answer

Different eras entirely: the Pavilion 17 (2013-2017) trades at vintage prices with upgrade-friendly bodies; the 17-cn (current) brings modern CPUs and official Windows 11. Budget tinkerers take the Pavilion; supported-Windows users take the 17-cn. Compare both HP 17 lines on Shopfox.

Question 3

Can you upgrade a HP Pavilion 17?

Accepted Answer

Generously for its era: accessible RAM slots, a 2.5-inch SATA SSD that transforms responsiveness, often an M.2 slot on later years, and a replaceable battery. A $60 tired unit plus parts makes a fine media station. Find the best Pavilion 17 chassis on Shopfox, then upgrade.
