Why my HP Pavillion Costs?

[NeonCore]

I just bought this HP Pavilion- 15-ab226nx for 900$
Processor: Intel® Core™ i7-6500U with Intel® HD Graphics 520 (2.5 GHz, up to 3.1 GHz, 4 MB cache, 2 cores)
Memory: 12 GB DDR3L-1600 SDRAM
Storage: 256 GB M.2 SSD
GPU: NVIDIA GeForce 940M (4 GB DDR3L dedicated)

Why does this loptop costs more than Dell 15.6-Inch Gaming Laptop for only 700$
CPU:Intel i5-6300HQ 2.3 GHz Quad-Core (6M Cache, Turbo up to 3.2 GHz)
GPU:NVIDIA GeForce GTX 960M 4GB GDDR5
Storage:256 GB Solid-State Drive
Memory: 8 GB DDR3L

How about its GPU? The dell uses GTX 960M but still Dell is much more cheaper than this loptop, what features does hp have to cost so much? I've seen 600$ computer with almost the same specs as Dell

if you think i7 is worth such cost than i5, then it should be fine. don't think too much. if you think gpu is more important than your usage, maybe gaming, maybe some certain graphic application..maybe return the hp and get dell or other brands like lenovo, msi if they have suitable models for you within your budget.

I've seen many loptops with the same specs as mine but for only 600$ i don't know why my loptop costs about 900$, is there any features that made my loptop so expensive? I've seen also other HP products with GTX 960 for thousand dollars but it's too expensive.What makes HP products so expensive?

 

[rgd1101]

why did you bought it then? why don't you return it?

There's no better loptop below 800$
3000 SR = 800$

if you like the dell that much why not the dell?

No, there aren't any features that make that HP Pavilion worth that much. I own a Pavilion, and in my personal opinion, the build quality is not the best.

Both the CPU and GPU in the Dell you mentioned are superior to the ones in that HP Pavilion you bought.

I have no idea why HP laptops are so expensive in your country, though.

You also have the m.2 SSD which adds a rather large amount onto the price of the laptop. Very efficient though!

Out of the 4 listed, I'd go for the MSI. It has a full power i7 CPU, whereas the other 3 have low voltage CPU's.
