Our Verdict

HP Pavilion Plus 14 (2023)

Lenovo Slim Pro 7 14 (2023)

The Lenovo Slim Pro 7 14 (2023) is better than the HP Pavilion Plus 14 (2023) for most uses. The Lenovo has a sturdier build, a better keyboard and touchpad, and significantly longer battery life. It's also available with a faster NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3050 discrete GPU. However, the HP has a better 1440p webcam, and it's available with an OLED display, making it a better option for media consumption.
