I like the computer in general. The only thing that I don't like is the hard drive which is 5400 RPM. It should be at least 7200 RPM to match the speed of the processor so that video editors like me don't have problem during rendering of video. The unit is over the need (requirement)for those who are just typing and doing some computer stuff but under rated for those who will use this for video editing and other task involving video rendering. I don't like the windows 8 as well, I cannot install some software that I need. They should adopt what windows7 have and compatible with. I give 4 star only because of the hard drive speed and windows8 compatibility.
The display and graphics are rather disappointing, despite calibration. I wish I had paid the extra $$ for the Blu-ray player, but all in all, the memory, speed and functionality are decent for the amount I paid for this laptop.Excellent product, very fast, good performance / cost, very light, comes with excellent numpad!, Not heated by the new system fancooler hp.This laptop is advertised at having 1GB GDDR5 NVIDIA(R) GeForce GT 630M Graphics, but instead came with an Intel HD 4000 graphics card... needless to say I AM EXTREMELY disappointed....Like other reviewers, had to scale the learning curve on Windows 8 (start screen is designed primarily to market apps). Came up with satisfactory workarounds to get down to business quickly. The ENVY dv6 is FAST!!! Boots up virtually INSTANTLY, and I'm online in the blink of an eye! I LOVE the BACKLIT KEYBOARD as I work a lot at night. This is the best all-around HP laptop I've owned in its price range. Very happy.
