The HP Pavilion ze4355EA Laptop

Advantages: Reliable, Good Functions, Solid Construction
Disadvantages: Not suitable for games, struggles with high end applications

...I have owned my ze4355 laptop for 3 years now, using almost every day for a variety of work and private use. I travel frequently with the laptop but also use it as a desktop computer. I feel I have a lot of experience with the machine so can provide a full review. Overall I would say that I am very happy with the laptop. I paid under £1000 for it and can honestly say that I have never had a computer (laptop and PC) which meets my needs so well. I use the laptop for word processing large documents for university assignments, as well as for statistical programs such as SPSS and Excel, for all of these tasks I have never been able to fault the laptop, it performs the tasks quickly and without any hardware faults at any stage in the last three years. For internet use I used a dial up connection with the fitted modem for a few...

the HP Pavilion entertainment.

Advantages: great entertainment laptop
Disadvantages: portability

...This laptop is the HP Pavilion dv9820ea Entertainment. The Hp Pavilion models are made mainly for gaiming, watching movies on and various other entertainment needs whilst not compromising the ability to od serious work on these as well. One thing that is compromised though is the portability, entertainment laptops are made to keep at home and not really to carry about with you all the time, so whilst the specification may look good, don?t expect one of these to be very portable. The Pavilion dv9820ea combines two colours, silver and black in order to make it look very up to date and futuristic even. It appears nice and rounded, and its shell makes the laptop feel very stable and robust. The installed ram on this laptop is great, it has a massive 3gb which is the main reason this laptop runs so fast, also the AMD Turion 64 X2 mobile...

My essential travelling companion -my hp pavilion 2000x laptop

Advantages: Small and powerful , tablet form and touch screen, speedy, two batteries
Disadvantages: a bit heavy for travelling

...Hewlett Packard Pavilion tx 2000 I have had this little laptop for over a year now. I feel it was quite expensive compared to what is available now; I think I paid about £600 from Staples for the laptop and three year warranty. It is not exactly a net book but it is a small laptop. The screen size is 12.5? diagonally and the keyboard is a decent size with a laptop type mouse pad in the middle front. I have weighed this (very important when travelling) and it weighs just under 2kg with one battery and just over that with the larger battery. The CD drive is also removable and can be replaced with an empty plastic cover which also reduces weight when travelling. It is small, neat, shiny black with rounded corners and silver keyboard. The screen swivels round completely and will lie flat as a tablet style over the keyboard. TABLET...

HP Pavilion dv5

Advantages: Good quality laptop, great appearance
Disadvantages: Games are a no-no.

...A well designed, high quality affordable laptop, the HP pavilion dv5 doesn't fail to please in looks, performance or price. In terms of look and design, flashy is a good word for it. It has a glossy black case which shines in the light, then you open it. The keyboard-surround is split horizontally: the bottom half is very light silver with a white check pattern, and the upper half perforated silver plastic. Around the edge of the laptop, there is a chrome-effect strip which sparkles and shimmers. Even the mouse pad has a finish that is so reflective you can see your face in it. This is the 'bling-bling' of the laptop world. It also feels pretty solid, I don't think you would be able to break it easily and I have faith in it's durability and robustness. It is also quite light, weighing 2.65kg, not bad for a laptop it's size. Ok...

Review of HP Pavilion dv5

HP Pavilion laptop purchased 15 months ago.

Advantages: Cheap, relatively compact, and easy to install, setup etc. Comes with some software.
Disadvantages: Only comes with MS Works, limited storage space, will not come with Vista.

...easily be enough. After about six months I experienced a software problem and the laptop needed to be repaired. This was fully covered by the 12 month warranty that came free with it, and I had my computer back within a day. Due to this being a Centrino laptop, the battery lasts for over three hours off charge. This is something that you will not get with other laptops of the same price, and I have found it to be excellent when I'm moving around. I use it with wireless internet, which couldn't be easier to setup, it's all done for you. The laptop itself is fast enough, however if you want to play computer games, it might be better looking for one with more RAM and a better video card, as this can find it hard to run some games. In conclusion, the laptop itself feels nice and robust to hold, and it is nice and compact for the screen...

Will HP be waiting on the Pavilion?

Advantages: Speedy, solid, reliable, HP
Disadvantages: A budget laptop

...Well the Acer packed in and with the warranty the store gave us credit (apparently the Acer that we had had become obselete and there was none in stock). So with the £400 or so store credit my mother wisely (and under her own guidance as far as I know) picked the HP Pavilion DV6000 (as far as I'm aware theirs no difference between this and the T model though if there is, I'm sorry). Quite why My mother (darling mother of mine) decided to ever get the pile of fecial matter that Acer claimed was a laptop I was never quite to sure, as everything in it came to peices, the keys flew off, the screen was...well dead, the AV charge wire was..erm..well dead too. Why couldn't she have gone after a real solid, well worked peice of kit like this first time round Im not sure. So HP's...what do I think of them? Well I'd basically take a bricky out...

HP Pavilion a810uk reliable Computer

Advantages: Good value for money
Disadvantages: The heatsink and fan

...or installed later if you already have a paid for disc for Office. Other programs included are Norton Anti Virus and firewall. Quicken, win dvd, and HP Tunes media. My conclusion is that I find that this is a good value for money computer and one that I find that I will have no immediate need to replace for a long time. Definetely a good computer in the budget low cost computer division....

The HP Pavilion Slimline s3821 Media Box

Advantages: Fast, built in WI-FI, Nice HD Graphics, 15 in 1 memory card reader and portable media bay.
Disadvantages: Too much like a PC and not enougth like a media device

...The HP Paviion Slimline s3821 uk-p is a very competitively priced HTPC and very good value for money. The HP Pavilion s3821 is powered by a Dual ? Core processer giving it the higher clock speed needed by HTPC?s. The higher clock speed allows programs like Photoshop and I-Tunes to run correctly without lag and generally giving it a media heart. It?s not the smallest in its range but that allows it to have a nice sized graphics card init. It also has a HDMI port provided by its nice sized graphics card, allowing it to plug straight into your HDTV. This does appear to be an added extra which is absent in the other PC?s of its range. It has a 15 in 1 memory card reader on the front along with the usual HP Pocket Media Drive bay (which is sold seperatly0, but is again one of those features that just aren?t seen in others of its range. It...

Review of HP Pavilion Dv7

HP Pavilion

Advantages: Nice looking, Great first time computer.
Disadvantages: Monitor a bit on the big and bulky side and really heavy

...So why did I buy a Hewlett Packard Pavilion, was it because there was a nice bloke trying to sell me the PC??? No it wasn?t it was because the computer itself does look nice. We have two computers in our house, one is a HP Pavilion 8775, and the other is a laptop. We never use the desktop PC anymore as after buying a laptop its so much easier. I thought id give you my views on the HP Pavilion, it is a nice computer, we have had it for about 2 years now. It?s never gone wrong. We bought it from PC World we took out extra insurance get in case of these little accidents, or if it needed repairing, so it cost just under £1300. The insurance still has till 05/06 till it runs out, so in my eyes it was well worth paying the extra to get it covered. With this it came with an Intel webcam, defiantly not the greatest of webcams...
