The 15.4-inch glossy widescreen is of the new, brighter variety, with better colour reproduction.

Performance from the Intel Core 2 Duo T5300 with 1GB of RAM is satisfactory, but struggles with Vista\'s aero interface.
The laptop is a compact size, comparible with all 15.4" models meaning its easily transportable.
I paid £699.99 for this product and all in all I am pleased with the Notebook. I would recommend this product to others.

Quick review of HP Pavilion Media Center Dv6355ea
I payed £450 for this product as it had the remote missing. I got the laptop brand new from HP Direct at the time.
It is a superb machine; its an eye turner for sure. Especially as i take it university for my studies. It has all the DVD features and the HD screen that it boasts is pretty flattering if you are the type of person to create graphics and websites.
Overall I give this laptop 5 stars. I think its a perfect companion for any student/worker or home user alike. It is fast and it has most of the latest features many laptops have not got such as intergrated bluetooth and wireless functionality. ...
