HP Pavilion dv2700 Special Edition Entertainment Notebook Review

Posted on - 26th February 2009

I have had this laptop for a couple of months now and was originally purchased for University in September.

It comes with 4gb of Ram which I must say allows for quick loading of programs as well as being able to open multiple memory demanding programs which can be flicked between very smoothly.

It’s a 2.5ghz (dual core) processor which again allows for quick processing of programs.

A 250gb Hard Disc Drive (hdd) which allows for plenty of storage. I was thinking about getting a bigger hdd notebook but felt this was more than enough, if I had opted for a larger hdd it would have been slower rpm’s + I often use external hdds to make backups on as I feel these are more secure and reliable.

Comes with a lightscribe dvd-rw but havent had a chance to use the ligthscribe labelling which i feel is really good as you can label discs without using ink (it uses a special laser to burn markings onto the disc)

Comes with a multimedia card slot on the side which allows quick and easy transfer from camera to laptop.

Bluetooth enables allows me to send photos directly from my phone to the laptop in seconds.

Built in Wi-fi of course allows connection to my wireless network.

14.1″ screen, at first wasn’t sure if this would be too small but it turns out to be the perfect notebook sized screen, its more than big enough for every single task you’d do on it as well as being small enough to make you feel your carrying around a mini nokebook such as a flybook :)

128mb dedicated graphics but using the RAM it can have up to 1.5gb of graphics memory (shared). I haven’t used it for games yet but seems like a really good laptop to do it.

It came with a wireless mouse + entertainment remote control + laptop case.

The laptop however comes with lots of bloatware which is pre-installed software that is installed, lots of trial software etc, the first thing i did was remove all the crap..
