Reviews for the HP Pavilion dv7-6123cl
Source: PC Mag
Archive.org versionThe HP Pavilion dv7-6123cl delivers decent productivity performance and excellent battery life, but it isn't going to blow you away with raw computing or graphics power. Its feature set is also stingy compared to similarly priced 17-inch notebooks, including its sibling, the dv7-6143cl, which costs the same but offers a more powerful processor, discrete graphics, and a Blu-ray drive. But if you're looking for a thinner, lighter, and slightly smaller desktop replacement notebook that can handle games, Dell's XPS 15z is your best bet.

17.30": This display size is a standard format for desktop replacements (DTR). The DTR laptops are heavier to carry, need more power, but texts are easy to read and high resolutions are no problem. DTR are mainly intended for stationary desk use, where weight and energy hunger don't matter. In return, you enjoy the advantages of high resolutions (more details, better legibility).» To find out how fine a display is, see our DPI List.
3.5 kg:
A laptop with this weight is comparatively heavy and less designed for mobility than for use at the desk. Therefore, the devices tend to shine less with battery life than with a large screen and higher performance.
