Hello! We welcome you to the website of F.ua. Today we are going to talk about the HP Pavilion dm4-1300 model.
Each firm positions its best models in its own way. For example, Hewlett-Packard Corporation has separated a special class such as "HP Home Portable Personal Computers - HP Pavilion Notebooks for Home Only", and the company has classified this section as the HP Pavilion dm4-1300 entertainment series of notebooks. If you look at it from one side, then this is a model exclusively for the home, for this reason its equipment will hardly be at the average level. On the other hand, its belonging to the Pavilion class obliges. What is so remarkable about this laptop? Will the HP Pavilion dm4-1300 personal computer claim to be a "gaming laptop"? After all, the filling of such a mobile personal computer must be appropriate.
The thin, powerful and lightweight HP Pavilion dm4-1300 notebook will delight every owner. And with its thin and lightweight yet durable metal alloy chassis, the HP Pavilion dm4 personal computer is the ideal choice for users. It is also designed for travelers and those who are constantly concerned about looking always stylish. Take advantage of this high performance, wireless connectivity, energy-saving features and a 35.56 cm (14 ") HD display.
On the HP website, this laptop is positioned as a novelty. In fact, the novelty in the HP Pavilion dm4-1300er lies only in the package bundle. The external appearance remained the same. This personal computer is equipped with an Intel Core i5-460M processor, an AMD Radeon HD 6370M video card, a 500 GB hard drive and six gigabytes of RAM. The graphics adapter is discrete, but, to our surprise, it cannot be called powerful. Moreover, this graphics core is usually installed in entry-level notebooks. So what can be a personal computer HP Pavilion dm4-1300er?
Laptop design
The casing of this personal computer is made of special polished aluminum. Of course, this is a huge advantage for a laptop. Firstly, metal is much stronger than plastic, and secondly, it is more resistant to wear and tear. The mobile personal computer looks modern and fresh. The laptop case has a metallic color, and a barely noticeable pattern on it is made using laser engraving. HP's website describes the entire design in just a few words: Argento notebook color using Stream pattern. The dimensions of this device are only 34.08x22.8x2.5 cm, the HP Pavilion dm4-1300 laptop weighs about 2 kilograms. The HP Pavilion dm4-1300er laptop is easy to carry around. The owner does not have to think about scratches: traces of exploitation will not be visible on the matte metal.
Slightly beveled edges, rounded corners, streamlined shape - all this adds to this model's attractiveness. Only two colors are intertwined in the interior of the laptop: black (this is the keyboard unit, the frame around the display and the touchpad) and the same metal (the entire work area). The owner should have no complaints about the build quality either: we did not observe any significant squeaks, deflections and deformations during testing of this model.
Laptop display
The personal computer HP Pavilion dm4-1300er has a 14-inch matrix with a resolution of 1366x768 pixels. This display from HP is also LED and has a special name BrightView (translated from English - high definition). Brightness, color reproduction, saturation and contrast of colors are really at a high level. "Delicious" and realistic image will not leave indifferent. Thanks to the aspect ratio (cinematic) of 16: 9, the user will be able to watch widescreen movies without annoying black bars at the bottom and top of the screen.
The display cover of this personal computer can tilt approximately 135 degrees. With a slight change in the position of the screen, however, the colors begin to invert. Of course, you can see the picture on the display, but it will definitely lose a certain level of color. Typically, the horizontal corners of the laptop are slightly larger and the vertical corners are slightly smaller. By the way, the hinges on which the Pavilion dm4-1300er laptop opens are quite elastic, for this reason you can work on the laptop even on the road.
Laptop keyboard and touchpad
The HP Pavilion dm4-1300er laptop has an island-style keyboard. All keys are at a small distance (approximately 2 mm) from each other, they also have a smooth "rubber" texture and a flat surface. In terms of mechanical characteristics, the keyboard is simply excellent: the keys are pressed quietly, have a clear moment for actuation and an average stroke. The buttons are standard in size. The only drawback of the keyboard is the lack of an additional NumPad-type keyboard unit. The dimensions of this device simply did not allow equipping the HP Pavilion dm4-1300er laptop with an additional digital block.
The touchpad is large in classic black color, it is slightly recessed into the laptop case. Dedicated mouse buttons and touch pad are separated by a strip. There should be no questions about the tactile and mechanical properties of the touchpad, fingers glide over it fluently, the cursor is clearly positioned. The advantages of this touch panel are support for a special technology such as Multi-Touch and the presence of an on / off button.
Processor and laptop performance
This mobile personal computer is equipped with a powerful 2-core processor (clock speed is from 2.53 to 2.8 GHz and this is in a special Turbo Mode). The processor has only 3 MB of cache memory, besides the third level. The central processing unit is equipped with an integrated GMA HD graphics core and a memory controller. The processor itself is manufactured using a special 32nm technical process, and the video adapter is manufactured using an oldish process (45nm technical process).
The HP Pavilion dm4-1300er laptop has 6 GB of RAM (1x4 GB, 1x2 GB). As you already understood, you will have two memory slots at your disposal for RAM. The maximum amount of RAM will be 8 GB.
All data will be stored on a hard drive with a spindle speed of 7200 rpm and a capacity of 500 GB, which will be quite enough both for music and movies in HD format, and for saving working documentation.
The graphics are represented by a discrete video card such as AMD Radeon HD 6370M (with 512 MB of its own DDR3 memory). We do not think that the graphics core presented in this notebook is powerful enough. You won't be able to play modern and demanding games with this video card, but FIFA 11 or the game Sims 3 - a laptop is quite suitable for this.
Laptop ports and communications
Personal computer HP Pavilion dm4-1300er has everything you need for comfortable and efficient work on it at home. In fact, all the ports of the laptop are located on two sides of the case. The rear end of the connectors does not contain at all, and a multi-format 5-in-1 card reader (Secure Digital, Memory Stick, Multimedia, xD Picture and Memory Stick Pro) has found a place on the front end of the laptop.
On the right side of the case there are two USB 2.0 ports, a special connector for a power supply, and an optical SuperMulti DVD ± R / RW drive with support for recording dual-layer discs. On the opposite side of the case there are only two audio connectors, one USB 2.0 port combined with eSATA, HDMI interface, RJ-45, VGA video output and a Kensington lock hole. Webcam in a laptop HP TrueVision type. It has a built-in digital microphone to help with Skype as well as video chats (VGA is also provided for very low light).
Bluetooth and Wi-Fi (802.11 b / g / n) adapters are responsible for accessing wireless networks.
A laptop is supplied with a rechargeable battery, which consists of 6 sections.Thanks to the good performance of this battery, the laptop can work without recharging for about 4.5 hours.

High build quality, classic looks and ergonomic input devices are what sets this device apart from the crowd of other classmates laptops. Speaking of the stuffing, this laptop will be able to please the owner with a spacious hard disk and a processor, but the graphics core "pumped up" a little.
