Short answer

Page experience is Google's set of user-experience signals, including Core Web Vitals, HTTPS and the absence of intrusive interstitials, that its ranking systems reward. It reflects how users perceive interacting with a page beyond its information content. Strong page experience can help, but relevant, helpful content remains far more important for rankings.
