Its graphics performance notwithstanding, the HP Pavilion dm4-1265dx is a great little mainstream laptop for the money. Its aluminum finish is both protective and stylish, and its productivity and multimedia performance rivals that of its more costly competition. A Blu-ray drive would be a welcome addition though, as would a discrete GPU. For a more robust graphics solution, the Asus U41JF-A1 is a better choice, but it'll cost you about $200 more.

There are hardly any tablets in this display size range anymore. For subnotebooks, on the other hand, it is the standard format.

The advantage of subnotebooks is that the entire laptop can be small and therefore easily portable. The smaller display also has the advantage of requiring less power, which further improves battery life and thus mobility. The disadvantage is that reading texts is more strenuous on the eyes. High resolutions are more likely to be found in standard laptops.

HP: Founded in 1939, the US company is a major server and printer manufacturer and one of the leading IT companies in the world. Until 2015, the company was called Hewlett-Packard Company. After a split, the computer division was renamed HP Inc.

In 2023, HP had an approximate market share of 22% of global PC sales, making it number 2 after Lenovo.

80%: This rating is not earth-shattering. This rating must actually be seen as average, since there are about as many devices with worse ratings as better ones. A purchase recommendation can only be seen with a lot of goodwill, unless it is about websites that generally rate strictly.
