Reviews for the HP Mini 1000
Review: HP Mini 1000 Netbook Earns Notebooks.com Editor’s Choice Award
Source: Notebooks.com 
The Mini 1000 I reviewed is an excellent choice and value for someone that understands the limitations of a netbook. It’s highly portable and its keyboard makes it much more useful than netbooks with smaller keys. The configuration in this review has a retail price of $464.99 and will provide the vast majority of consumers a solid portable web, email and productivity experience. Business professionals looking for an enterprise-class computer should avoid the Mini 1000, along with all current netbooks. Geeks and gadget tweakers may not like the Mini 1000 either as there’s not as the Mini 1000 doesn’t lend itself to tweaking the same way slightly larger netbooks do.

A small wonder
Source: Star Techcentral
Mini notebooks are usually used for surfing and performing simple tasks, and the HP Mini is great for such purposes. The build quality is solid and it has a number cool features while still maintaining a small, lightweight form factor. It is great that it has a large 10.2in screen and a keyboard that is almost full-size and comfortable to use. Also, the fairly efficient workhorse is capable of running lightweight applications and is great for viewing pictures or videos. With 60GB of storage, you’d be scratching your head deciding what programs and applications you’d want on the Mini. However, the Mini’s isn’t great for working outdoors, and it has only two USB ports and the propriety VGA adaptor is not bundled with the notebook. Overall, the notebook is great if all you want to do with it is surf, watch movies on the go, and use it for simple tasks.

HP Mini 1000 Review
Source: Notebookreview.com
The HP Mini 1000 is a clear winner on the netbook front, offering a great design and being very user-upgrade friendly. It offers the best keyboard out of the entire netbook crowd, only matched by the earlier Mini-Note 2133 which uses the same design. We are delighted HP finally decided to refresh their netbook with the Atom platform since it increased battery life over the VIA model and greatly reduced the amount of heat thrown off the processor. With great build quality, a spring-loaded RAM slot, awesome keyboard, and super slim design it is easy to give the HP Mini 1000 our Editor’s Choice award. We feel it is well deserved even with the missing VGA port and limited battery options.

80% First Aussie review: HP Mini 1000 netbook
Source: APC Mag
The Mini 1000 has plenty to offer the average PC buyer, and we’ve no doubt HP will move plenty – even with the eyebrow-raising $899 price tag. But more tech-savvy shoppers will be waiting for that sticker to be slashed by at least $150 before the Mini 1000 can really stand its ground against some of the better-spec’d competitors.

80% The HP Mini 1000 - 2nd Generation
Source: Hardware Zone
The original HP 2133 Mini-Note PC always has a special place in our hearts as a very well-designed "business" netbook and its successor, the Mini 1000 takes it to a more consumer level with some compromises but still with the same design quality and build. Sure there are changes that aren't quite to our liking - plastic instead of aluminum, but factor in the cost and weight, the issue becomes somewhat moot.

HP Mini 1000 Review
Source: Slashgear
The HP Mini 1000 delivers the Internet and basic computing tools in a very affordable price for those who need a desktop companion to take with you on the go. Priced very competitively with other netbooks on the market, the HP Mini is sure to make some waves this holiday season. Features like Bluetooth V2.1 and an integrated webcam make this device stand out among others on the market. Starting at $399 you will be getting a fully Internet capable mini computer to take with you anywhere, that is both functional and very durable.

HP Mini 1000 Review
Source: Student Buying Guide
In the world of netbooks the Mini 1000 deserves praise for its durable build, good keyboard and nice screen. When you compare the Mini 1000 I got priced at $549 to larger notebooks you’ll of course find it’s a slower performer, has less storage space, has a restricted amount of viewing and the keyboard won’t be as easy to use as that of say a 14.1″ screen. If you know a mini notebook fits your needs and you’re just looking for a companion web device to take on the go, the Mini 1000 is worth considering, if you have $500 - $600 to spend on a laptop for school then you’ll be better served by looking at a budget priced 14.1″ or 15.4″ screen notebook.

HP may have arrived late to the consumer netbook game, but by lifting the generous keyboard from last year's business-oriented model, the Mini 1000 easily joins the category's top tier. And with such good value at just £400, this netbook is definitely worth a look.

HP Mini 1000 review
Source: PC Advisor
With the HP Mini 1000, HP does a good job keeping most of the things that worked on the HP Mini-Note 2133, while upping the performance and managing to cut prices in the process - well, not counting the fashionista-flavoured model. Is an HP Mini 1000 right for you? If you're limiting your outdoor use (the glare can be a pain), this is a good choice; but it's not the swiftest mini-note on the block.

Hewlett-Packard was one of the first companies to join the netbook revolution. In response to ASUS' Eee PC 4G, it quickly launched the HP 2133 Mini-Note PC, which I reviewed this past April. HP's latest netbook, the Mini 1000 ($550 direct), is modeled after the polished look of HP's Pavilion line and includes the Intel Atom platform. The Mini 1000 is a solid second act for HP that could teach other netbooks a thing or two about design. It could stand to learn a few things from its peers, as well.

The Mini 1000 offers the standout solid construction and comfort as its more expensive Mini-Note 2133 predecessor, but with dramatically better performance. We just wish the excellent higher-resolution screen from the 2133 were an option on this model. The Mini 1000 is a worthy competitor in the netbook market, offering the small size of the Lenovo IdeaPad S10 without the compromised keyboard. Spec-wise, however, it’s more of a “me-too” netbook. While we love its small form factor and excellent keyboard, those aren’t enough to offset the $80 to $120 price premium over offerings from Asus, Lenovo, and MSI, which offer nearly identical performance.

Comment
Intel Graphics Media Accelerator (GMA) 950: Intel Graphics Media Accelerator 950 is an integrated (onboard) graphic chip on Mobile Intel 945GM chipset. It is a faster clocked version of the GMA 900 and supports no hardware T&L (Transform & Lightning) accelleration (which is required for some games).
Only older games can be played fluently with these graphics chips (if they were not too demanding). Shared memory graphic cores in this category got the advantage of less heat production and longer battery runtimes. For office, internet, image processing, and video editing tasks these graphics chips are still useable without any restrictions.

1 kg: This subnotebook is one of the most lightweight of all notebooks and can be carried very easily. There exist hardly any models in this extreme class of weight. 7-9 inch displays are normal for this class of weight.
HP: HP is one of the biggest international manufacturers according market shares and reviewed models at the German- and English-speaking market. HP notebooks are often in top positions according price/value ratings.
