sound is very low



Rating: 5 out of 10 (Average)
Pros: hi
Cons: hi
Opinion:
in my hp520 sound is very low, not only mine

 

not bad at first...



Rating: 5 out of 10 (Average)
Pros: lightweight, simple
Cons: noisy optical drive, slow, only 2 usb ports, no card reader..etc
Opinion:
for the first few months of using this laptop, it was fine...

after some time, it slowed down... it would shut down by itself, laptop became very hot too touch...

built-in speakers were very bad... very very low volume..


sigh.. i don't know if i should be happy if it got stolen..

 

it would have been better without the battery problem



Rating: 4 out of 10 (Mediocre)
Pros: more or less okay performance
Cons: short battery life,poor optical drive performance and extremely slow
Opinion:
i got this laptop just a year back and its performance had been slow but manageable untill recently detered by the battery life(it has stopped charging beyond 45%) and also the optical drive which has stopped working.

 

Malfunctioning?



Rating: 3 out of 10 (Poor)
Pros: Cheap
Cons: Lots of problems
Opinion:
I have had many problems with my PC. I don't know if this is just mine, but it is very slow and often turns off without notice. I checked the settings and brought it into have it checked, but nothing was found wrong with it. It often freezes and I've had troubles with the keys, which sometimes dont work. I would recommend buying a different comp. This one doesn't do it for me.

Average performance for an expensive piece of hardware



Rating: 5 out of 10 (Average)
Pros: Clean layout; quite hard drive (but noisy optical drive)
Cons: Slow optical drive; not enough RAM
Opinion:
This product is expensive for its features and capabilities. windows Vista is slow. The optical drive is sluggish and noisy. It does look good and has a very comfortable keyboard layout. No firewire connection.
