The Nokia PureBook Pro 17 faces the competition
The Nokia PureBook Pro 17 is currently displayed in promotion at ElectroDépôt and offers an attractive configuration/price ratio for its category where it is one of the least expensive to offer such a recent and high-performance processor with such a high capacity SSD but also a Full HD IPS screen as well as USB-C connectivity and a biometric authentication solution in addition to a keyboard backlighting system.
If this laptop does not completely meet your needs, we invite you to consult our inexpensive laptop and student laptop guides, where you will find other similar laptops that can be good alternatives to the Nokia PureBook Pro 17.
Chassis, connectivity, screen of the Nokia PureBook Pro 17
Following an agreement with Nokia, it is a French brand which offers this laptop in the colors of the famous mobile phone brand.
With its slim dark design with an aluminum shell, it has a relatively discreet design.
The connectivity integrated into this laptop PC stands out from the competition by the absence of HDMI video output, which is standard on this type of machine. It is somewhat compensated by 2 USB-C (compared to 1 usually), an audio port, Wi-Fi 5 ac and Bluetooth 5 wireless modules for remote connections and communications but also 1 USB 3.0 compatible with USB 2.0 (compared to 2 to 3 usually) guaranteeing transfers up to 10 times faster than USB 2.0 if USB 3.0 devices are plugged into it.
If necessary, you can use a USB-C to HDMI adapter.
Rare at this price level, a fingerprint reader is integrated for biometric authentication using Windows Hello technology.
A real asset that is also unusual considering the positioning of this computer, a backlighting system is included to better distinguish the keys of the chiclet keyboard.
It is very appreciable at this price level to be dealing with a screen adopting IPS technology ensuring significant viewing angles, both horizontal and vertical. But also to find a precise Full HD definition superior to the 1366×768 standard. It is very well suited to displaying High Definition content such as videos due to its 16:9 format. Thanks to its anti-reflective treatment, the screen also offers better visibility than a shiny panel in a bright environment (eg outdoors) while being more restful for the eyes in the long run.
Performance, autonomy of Nokia PureBook Pro 17
The Nokia PureBook Pro 17 is a slim 17-inch High Definition laptop designed for everyday multipurpose use.
It is driven by a low-consumption Intel Ader Lake processor but whose TDP of 28W (P series) higher than the standard 15W (U series) allows for better performance. It is more precisely the Core i3-1220P with 10 hybrid cores close to a Core i5 U series.
Coupled with 8 GB of RAM, the Core i3-1220P delivers its full potential under not too demanding software using multi-core, such as photo editing or video conversion.
This core actually delivers good performance in everyday use, such as office automation and Internet surfing. But also for viewing photos and videos or playing light games thanks to the Iris Xe graphics solution inserted in the Core i3.
It is a 512 GB SSD that we find integrated in terms of storage, capacity equivalent to what hard drives offer as standard.
But obviously if you need more space you can rely on an external storage unit. Opting for a USB 3.0/USB-C device then represents an advantageous solution for obtaining fast transfers.
In any case, an SSD is more robust than a hard drive but also more energy efficient, quiet and much faster.
The SSD therefore provides much better fluidity and responsiveness on a daily basis than a hard drive.
This translates in practice into faster starts/stops, processing and launches of applications or even faster arrival on the online game cards.
As for autonomy while waiting for more concrete tests, count on around 6 hours of battery operation in light use for this PC which is not the most nomadic by nature given its 17-inch format.
It might suit some people looking for an inexpensive, very comfortable large format student laptop for whom weight is not an essential criterion.
