Nearly day-long battery life ; compact design ; includes small Media Center remote control ; imprint finish helps it stand out from the laptop crowd
Massive 9-cell battery is awkward and uncomfortable ; lacks 802.11n Wi-Fi and Gigabit Ethernet ; glossy touch pad is uncomfortable
Its massive battery extends awkwardly from the bottom of the laptop, but the HP Pavilion dv3-2155mx is an otherwise compact thin-and-light laptop that should get students to class and back on a single charge.

Shrink the system and bulk up the battery: It's not rocket science, but it's a winning recipe for portable PC design. HP does it with the Pavilion dv3-2150us ($849.98 list), which reduces the company's desktop-replacement media-center platformcomplete ...

Great screen, solid build quality, HDMI, plays Blue ray movies from rom, dv3 screen is HD 720p supportive to watch HD movies. Option to get backlit keyboard is a BIG PLUS so you can see what you're typing at nights
Regardless what this reviewer says, the 5lbs is NOT light as the reviewer states. Ever try walking around with 5 pouds the whole day, its like holding a 5 lbs dumbell in your hands, it gets sore. 4lbs and under is true ultraportable

Great mixture of portability and performance, good battery life, comfy keyboard
Design may not appeal to all
