HP Pavilion 17 review

 

School smarts, sharp looks

Slimmer body with thinner bezels ; Slew of modern components ; Extra wide webcam

Full HD screens not standard ; IPS panel almost necessary

The new HP Pavilion 17 gets a thinner metal frame with slimmer bezels, but some elements of this entry-level laptop feel trapped in the early aughts.

Consumer review (argos.co.uk)

Average at best, sound is terrible.

 

Does the job I suppose. Comes with lots and lots of junky applications (which have been instantly uninstalled) and not very many useful ones. Will be a bit of a pain to set up unless you have a prior Microsoft account. Sound is horrible and muffled,...

It's new- hurrah

To early to say, thought it might of been a bit lighter, but not important for this product. Battery life O.K. would have liked longer

A laptop with intermittent wireless

 

This laptop has great graphics, and the multifunction touchpad is kind of neat. The applications run well and I don't mind Windows 10 at all. I wouldn't mind seeing an LED or two to show numlock and wireless are on. Which brings me to the downfall of...

Wireless does not work consistently

 

I bought an AMD DV9000 HP Laptop in 2007 that worked pretty good for me after several upgrades until 2015. I decided to buy this laptop based upon my experience with the DV9000. I upgraded to a red case and Intel Wireless A. The laptop case looks...
