#Hp pavilion dm1 full
Take 6's deep harmonies and Rachelle Farrell's velvety soprano on Quincy Jones' "Moody's Mood For Love" sounded rich and full against the backdrop of James Moody's alto sax. The thin speaker strip on the computer's front lip performed admirably. The mouse buttons offered firm, springy feedback.Ĭlick to enlargeAlthough the dm1 doesn't have the size to accommodate a larger set of speakers like the Envy 14, it still benefits from the addition of Beats Audio technology.

For the most part, two-finger scrolling, pinch-to-zoom, three-finger flicking, and rotate gestures were fast and responsive. The textured 3.3 x 1.6-inch Synaptics touchpad felt good during our testing. Instead of the dm1z's all-in-one clickpad, the Pavilion dm1 features a textured touchpad and a set of physical mouse buttons. We also like that HP reversed the function row keys, so that we could change the volume and screen brightness, for instance, without pressing the Fn key first. The flat, medium-sized keys provided firm feedback and were a pleasure to type on.

The Pavilion dm1's island-style keyboard takes advantage of the space provided, extending to the edge of the notebook. However, the Pavilion dm1 still fit into our small messenger bag with ease.

Weighing 3.4 pounds and measuring 11.5 x 8.5 x 0.3-1.3 inches, the Pavilion dm1 is slightly larger than both the 3-pound, 11.2 x 7.9 x 1-inch Acer Aspire One 722 and the 3.3-pound 11.4 x 7.6 x 1-inch Lenovo IdeaPad S205. Buttons for power and the Quick Web launcher sit atop the deck. The black matte keyboard sits in a recessed well, and the top of the deck sweeps up in an elegant incline, showing off the sliver plastic hinges. Opening the Pavilion dm1 reveals a plastic black matte finish identical to the lid.
