70% HP Pavilion dv7-4272us
Source: PC Mag English Archive.org version
There's little doubt that the HP Pavilion dv7-4272us is a solid laptop for entertainment and day-to-day use. If you want the best in the category, however, the Editors' Choice HP Pavilion dv7-4183cl is still the media desktop replacement laptop to beat with its lighter weight, Intel Core i5 processor, and better performance across the board.
