HP G62-435DX

 

The HP G62-534DX is a stripped down budget laptop, but with similarly priced systems offering so much more, there's not much to recommend it.

Comfortable keyboard. Card reader supports several formats. Dual-layer DVD burner. Best Buy offers decent extended warranties.

Frustrating, stiff touchpad. Disappointing speakers. Weak performance across the board. Unattractive design. Small hard drive.

HP G62-355dx

 

The HP G62-355dx is an affordable desktop replacement laptop, but you get what you pay for with this laptop.

Very affordable. Comfortable keyboard. Bright display.

Sluggish performance. So-so battery life. Stingy feature set.

HP G62-223cl

 

The HP G62-223cl is an inexpensive mainstream laptop, but you can find a faster one for about the same price.

Fast hard drive. Inexpensive. Lightweight. Matte lid is smudge-resistant. Costco's two year warranty is standard.

Running on last year's processors. Quicklaunch keys are oddly placed. Mouse buttons are too resistant. Below average performance scores.

HP G62-225nr

 

The HP G62-225nr is budget 15.6-inch laptop with good battery life, but below-average performance and an unimpressive feature set.

Inexpensive. Very good battery life. Matte surface is smudge-resistant.

Below-average performance.

HP G62-143cl

 

The HP G62-143cl is an inexpensive mainstream laptop that runs the latest parts and delivers excellent battery life.

Fast hard drive. Inexpensive. Lightweight. Speedy laptop. Good battery scores. Matte lid is smudge-resistant.

Quick-launch keys are oddly placed. Mouse buttons are too resistant. No ExpressCard slot.

Review HP G62-130EG Notebook

 

Budget laptop. One Intel core processor please, with a side-order

Solid, hardwearing case; Fast hard drive; Low system noise; Decent keyboard; Good sound quality from the speakers

Poor graphics performance; Glossy display with low contrast; No number pad; Touchpad buttons don’t depress very far

The Acer Aspire 5741G: with Radeon HD 5470 and a slimmer look; the Sony Vaio VPCEA1S1E/W: similar hardware in a 14.1-inch format; the Acer Aspire 4820TG: HD 5650 with a 14-inch screen; the Acer Aspire 5551G: with AMD triple-core; the Samsung P530 Pro:...

HP Pavilion G62-454TU laptop

 

HP Pavilion G62-454TU review: A cheap 15.6in notebook with good features, performance and battery life

Feels reasonably solid, looks good, good performance for office and multimedia tasks, good battery life

Screen has narrow viewing angles, screen too glossy, touchpad feels the same as the palmrest, touchpad buttons are hard to press, initial setup was not smooth

The HP Pavilion G62-454TU notebook is perfect for families, students and new computer users who want something cheap, yet with good performance. It has an Intel Pentium CPU under the hood, but it will do a good job running office and multimedia tasks....
