The HP Pavilion Sleekbook 15-b142dx first became available on July 31, 2013. It was one of the first generations of laptops produced by HP to feature the Windows 8 operating system.

This laptop is equipped with a 16” HD, LED-backlit screen and uses an AMD Radeon HD 7500g graphics card to produce the on-screen images. It comes with a 500GB hard drive, 4GB of RAM with the ability to upgrade up to 8GB, and an AMD A6-4455M Accelerated Processor. The processor was faster and more powerful than competing processors in its time, with speeds ranging between 2.1 and 2.6GHz.

Like almost all laptops, it came with a built in HD webcam and digital microphone. However, it came with integrated Altec Lansing dual speakers with Dolby Advanced Audio, which are generally specific to HP devices.

The model number (15-b142dx) is found on the manufacturer label on the bottom case.
