CNET Asia Review

Excellent

View score

The good: Laminated scratch-resistant body; discrete graphics card option; integrated Webcam; HP QuickPlay function; stylish touch-sensitive buttons.

The bad: Thick chassis; below-average battery life.

The bottom line: HP's entertainment notebook not only delivers in features, but also goes the extra mile to redesigning the chassis to appeal to those with unconventional tastes.

it gets the job done nothing more



Rating: 6 out of 10 (Good)
Pros: good for music and some gaming
Cons: short battery
Opinion:
got it second hand and was good for a year. then the screen wouldn't come on at times but buttons would light up, but i called HP and and they sent me a box for a free repair and it was great now. it took about a week on the repairs

 

Not for business use. Just for research & entertainment only.



Rating: 3 out of 10 (Poor)
Pros: fashionable finish, good for watching movies & listening music
Cons: low battery life, short product lifespan
Opinion:
i had this item for 2yrs...and now its not working...it heats quickly and the screen just shuts down turning to black but the system is still running but no display...it's just so disappointing because i expect to use it atleast for 5 yrs...but its only 2yrs & its not functioning properly. I always use it with proper care. I purchased & installed antivirus software to protect it. Its just so disappointing because it's my first laptop, & its always my dream to have one,& now...i don't know if i'll ever buy a laptop again.

 

Piece of expensive crap



Rating: 1 out of 10 (Abysmal)
Pros: Works great when it wants to...
Cons: Overheating, cd drive bad, doesn't boot, piece of crap.
Opinion:
I bought this thing less than two years ago, its a HP dv2000 laptop. I'm pretty sure I ahve either 1-2gb of ram (or whatever that one is) and 120gb of memory. When I first got it, it was fine. But it gets incredibly hot, it's pretty delicate for a friggin laptop (I've already replaced the harddrive twice). Since December, it does not boot up every time I try to turn it on, sometimes for days. The keypad lights up, the CD drive makes a lil whir/grunt sound sometimes, and it just sits there with the fan going. Then sometimes it turns itself off. When it does boot up, it works perfectly fine.
Honestly I'm really pissed off about my laptop. First major thing I ever purchased, and I can't afford another one. I wish I knew who to direct my anger to.
Buy at your own risk. >:[
