upgrade ram HP Notebook - 15-f272wm (ENERGY STAR)

[daviddbestmade]

Can I upgrade my 4GB single slot Ram to 8GB.  I know that the types would have to match.  I just need to know if this computer supports upgrading to either 8GB or 16GB.  thanks

Yes you can:

One SODIMM non-customer-accessible/upgradable memory module slot (Pentium, Celeron processors)

Service Manual

As you already know, you have a Bay Trail processor which means you have one memory slot and yes, it can be upgraded to an 8 gig DDR3L-1600 SO-DIMM. See p. 30 for memory upgrade instructions.

Isaac, with most of the HP flyer models built around 2017-2018, there's only one SODIMM slot. Your machine likely has the same Bay Trail processor that mine does.
