This is a sexy smart looking laptop it's really easy to use. I found this laptop quick on loading programs and fast on the internet. The picture quality is not too bad either.

Advantages: Look, Performance, Extra Features
Disadvantages: Robustness

...the most recent and newest Hp pavilion laptops. With almost identical specification as both the 14inch and 17inch screen models the only real difference is the screen size. Speed: With a dual core 1.66 GHz Intel Centrino processor and 2GB of RAM this laptop is pretty fast. Start up time is reasonable, applications open up quickly, big files load fairly speedily too. Can handle several applications at once and complete several processes at once. ...
...Look and Feel: As HP put it themselves - Wrapped up in the HP Imprint finish, this sleek and shiny notebook will look good at home or on the road. This was one of the factors in me choosing this laptop over its competitors in the same price range. The finish is superb and it doesn’t scratch really easily, dent, feel really cheap or any of the things you might expect from a good looking finish. On the other hand, the whole laptop does feel a bit ... Read review

Advantages: Features, size and design
Disadvantages: Not good enough for gaming

...me. As a fan of HP products, I chose from the DV6500 range available at the time. This laptop had every spec I required for both using as a station for university assignments, as well as home use for music, film and gaming. Firstly, the design is eye-catching. I was bored of looking at the generic black or grey and thought the white anti-scratch surface was ideal. The laptop is also quite light and the absense of a locking clip meant there was less ...
...more than my money's worth! HP also frequently offer discounts so it's always worth checking to see what deals are to be had. As well as the remote control that is stored away when not in use, another of my favourite features is the fingerprint reader. When you use the internet on a frequent basis, remembering usernames and passwords can be frustrating. For anyone who hops from website to website, I'd highly recommend this feature. Thankfully I ...

Advantages: Good looks, most basic equipment you would need, able to handle most programs
Disadvantages: Not suitable for games, some aspects feel cheap

...However, I will warn that Toshiba have placed quite a lot of branding on the software. The Toshiba wallpaper is easy to get rid of, but there are numerous 'memory eating' programs that Toshiba claim to help your laptop - they do nothing worthwhile. Certainly nothing that Windows can't do better. Separate programs for controlling the touch pad aren't required, and uninstalling all of this non-essential software frees up storage space and memory. ...
...ethernet port for my internet, and have had no issues with either. The ethernet is very straight forward plug and play, and connects to your ISP in seconds. The display is extremely crisp and sharp, and the brightness can be changed to suite your needs (and energy consumption). On the subject of energy consumption, this laptop isn't too bad compared to some I have used. I can run my laptop in high performance mode using wireless LAN for internet, ... Read review
