The good: First laptop to use new AMD Athlon Neo CPU; best-looking budget 12-inch laptop we've seen; 4GB of RAM.
The bad: Netbook-style performance at mainstream-laptop prices; no internal optical drive; unimpressive battery life.
The bottom line: HP's slick-looking 12-inch Pavilion dv2 carves out a niche between entry-level Netbooks and expensive ultraportables.
When we first saw the 12-inch HP Pavilion dv2 at CES 2009, we noted that, "at first glance, another glossy HP laptop with an AMD processor may induce yawns, but when we learned this was the first system to use AMD's new Netbook-like Athlon Neo platform, our ears perked up."
AMD sees room for systems with slightly bigger screens than Netbooks, and that cost slightly more. The Neo is intended to be a kind of step-up from Netbook CPUs, such as the Intel Atom and Via Nano, offering a little more processing power for a little more money, and is targeted at slightly larger systems: 12-inch laptops instead of 9- and 10-inch ones.
In practice, the 1.6GHz Neo handles many tasks better than the Intel Atom does, and it comes paired with ATI Radeon graphics (it's also restricted to Windows Vista--sorry, no XP option). But, at $749, there's a big psychological leap to the HP dv2 from a $499 10-inch Netbook or even the $549 12-inch Samsung NC20, which has Via's new Nano processor. Once you hit that price range, plenty of mainstream laptop choices come into play, as illustrated in our recent retail laptop review roundup.
HP's own Pavilion dv4-1275mx (also $749) has a 14-inch screen, but also features a dual-core Turion X2 CPU, while Sony's 14-inch Vaio CS215J/W ($799) has a 2.0 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo T6400--both of which handily outperform the HP dv2.
While we're not convinced that laptop shoppers are looking for some middle ground between a traditional Netbook and a cheap mainstream dual-core laptop, the HP Pavilion dv2 at least gets to carve out a niche (for the moment) as the overall-best, inexpensive, 12-inch laptop available.

| Category | Ultraportable |
Taking some design cues from the rest of HP's current Pavilion lineup, the dv2 has a mirrored touch pad, imprinted swirly design on the keyboard tray, and a high-gloss finish. But unlike other Pavilions we've seen recently, this model trades the traditional tapered-key keyboard for one with flatter, more closely spaced keys--similar to what you'd see on Apple and Sony laptops, or HP's Mini 1000 Netbook.
That keyboard is comfortable and easy to use, but the narrower overall width (as in the case of Netbook keyboards as well) takes a little getting used to for touch typists. As in other current HP laptops, the touch pad's mirrored surface isn't quite slick enough for our tastes--there's a little too much drag on the finger, forcing us to dial up the pointer speed in the system settings.
The slim Pavilion dv2 is thinner than other low-cost 12-inch laptops we've seen--the Samsung NC20 and Dell Mini 12 (powered by the Intel Atom and Via Nano processors, respectively)--and is only slightly thicker than a high-end ultraportable like the Lenovo IdeaPad U110. The end result is that the HP dv2 looks like a more expensive machine than it is.
The 12.1-inch wide-screen LED display offers a 1,280x800 native resolution, which is standard for most screens between 12 and 15 inches in size. It displays Web pages and documents better than a Netbook's typical 1,024x600 resolution can, and is also well-suited for watching 720p HD video content.

But the big story of the HP Pavilion dv2 is its AMD Athlon Neo CPU, and this is the first system we've seen with that processor. AMD calls it a "platform for ultrathin notebooks," and wants to use systems such as the HP dv2 to create a new laptop category. As we noted after talking to AMD at CES 2009, the company sees Netbooks as occupying the space between 7- and 11-inch displays with prices under $499, while traditional ultraportrable laptops run from 11 to 13 inches and cost $1,499 or more. Somewhere in there, AMD reckons, there's room for systems with slightly bigger screens than Netbooks, and that cost slightly more.
The 1.6 GHz Neo CPU MV-40 has enough processing power to run Windows Vista smoothly, something that has tripped up Intel-Atom-powered systems, including Sony's Vaio P and Dell's Mini 12. In our benchmark tests, the HP dv2 was significantly faster than Netbooks with either Intel's Atom or Via's new Nano CPU at individual tasks such as iTunes encoding or Photoshop image processing. However, when running multiple apps simultaneously, none of these low-power, single-core CPUs were particularly impressive, and the Neo and Atom were essentially tied in our multitasking test. By way of comparison, a standard Intel Core 2 Duo ULV (ultralow voltage) processor, as found in more expensive 12-inch laptops, easily beats them all.
While far from a gaming platform, the HP dv2 does include discrete graphics in the form of a 512MB ATI Mobility Radeon HD 3140 GPU. In Unreal Tournament III, we were able to get a very playable 34.3 frames per second at a 1,280x800 resolution.
The HP Pavilion dv2 ran for 2 hours and 29 minutes on our video playback battery drain test, using the included six-cell battery. That's well short of what we'd expect from an ultraportable 12-inch laptop clearly designed to be used on the road.
HP includes an industry-standard, one-year, parts-and-labor warranty with the system. Upgrading to a two-year plan will cost an extra $169. Support is accessible through a 24-7 toll-free phone line, an online knowledge base, and driver downloads.

great little machine
by MikeJ9 on April 10, 2009
Pros: Small, nice looking, great keyboard, great screen, better performance than netbooks, lots of ports, SIM card slot, includes USB DVD burner. Fully compatible with Ubuntu Linux 8.10 (including wireless, suspend, CPU speed, sound).
Cons: No express card slot, mediocre battery life, less performance than a more expensive laptop. Should offer a Linux (Ubuntu) pre-install alternative to Vista.
Summary: The machine is as compact and lightweight as high end ultra-portable laptops, but it costs about half as much, so for that you get a somewhat worse battery life and ...

Lightweight option for main computer
by Courtney0705 on August 23, 2009
Pros: Very lightweight, performs well, sleek-looking design, less expensive than other ultraportables with similar specs.
Cons: Runs warm and can get a bit hot at times, occasionally lags when running multiple apps, smooth touch pad.

Summary: I began searching for a new laptop in June. My old one was a 10lb Gateway with a 17in. screen. It was a pain to carry to class and the 70GB HD was too small for my needs. I wanted something much lighter and smaller, while still being a comfortable main computer with enough HD space for music and movies, and quick enough for my usual tasks. I bought this laptop in early July with the same configuration as the one CNET tested. It was $679+taxes with the $50 mail-in rebate I got.
Mostly, I just want to address the cons I listed:
Heat: It runs warm and at times can get a bit hot. Some people are whiny about this, but it doesn't bother me enough that it'd discourage me from buying it again.
Processor: Heavy use for me is 20 or so Firefox tabs, MS Word, and AIM. So while others have complained about the processor, it's rarely an issue for me. On the occasion that it lags, it's only a few seconds.
Touch pad: The smooth touch pad was actually the biggest con for me. It definitely takes some getting used to, but increasing the pointer speed helps. You also have to wipe it off once a day or so, or else oil buildup from your fingers will make the pointer go wonky. It does have a handy little button above it to turn it off for those occasions, though. The smooth touch pad is a small issue, but an issue nonetheless.
Overall, I really like this laptop. Other ultraportables seem to be either more expensive or have less impressive specs. It's a fully functional laptop that's light enough to take to class, but doesn't break the bank. Apparently I'm one of the middle-ground consumers CNET isn't sure exists.2 out of 2 users found this user opinion helpful.

"Cabbage" notebook lovers need not apply.
by HShin on May 28, 2009
Pros: Not your garden variety pantsy netbook. Comes with processing power quite a bit faster than low-powered Intel and good graphics for light gaming, but not so light it looks ridiculous like all the netbooks out there (except Asus N10).
Cons: Does not switch off the on-board ATI for battery consumption, thus draining battery considerably. This alone has drawn some pretty harsh criticism among people who have gotten so used to netbooks.
Summary: I'm rating this a 5-star to offset the biased opinions expressed by the first two "Atom-boys" who are oblivious of users' demand. What are Atom notebooks? Atom-boys would have ...
Summary: I'm rating this a 5-star to offset the biased opinions expressed by the first two "Atom-boys" who are oblivious of users' demand. What are Atom notebooks? Atom-boys would have you believe that all you ever need from a subnotebook is web browsing, Microsoft Office, and movies. That may be true for new computer users or people who already have workstation class PCs and just want a mini for portable reading purposes. Now ask yourselves, isn't that what a PDA is for? Sure people clamor for more screen space, and that's why EeePC 1st gen did so well. But what started out as a test market for inexpensive subnotebooks gradually turned into stagnant water as the price for newer models never drop to the affordability level. What we have now is premium price for sub-par performance. For about 499 you're basically getting a text-reader (albeit in color as opposed to the Amazon slate thing) that comes without a DVD drive. What HP offers here is less than 700 bucks for hybrid solution, that is bundled with an external drive. Expensive? Maybe to some. But for about the same price the best and affordable portable in the ultra-lightweight category is a C2D with pitiful integrated graphics. For less than 700, HP/AMD decided people should have previous gen graphics--as opposed to near-zero graphics, and that is what burns the battery and register higher heat. But is it hot enough to melt down the set? Well, if you've used C2D sets like MacBook or anything new with Nvidia chips before, the DV2 is nearly as hot on load. Otherwise it is cool at idle especially with Energy Saver set to minimum. For extra battery life and lower power you are strongly encouraged to undervolt. Google for a solution.

It Is What It Is..

Summary: Someone reviewed this absolutely ripping HP and this product, but it's actually good for what you pay. For a compact notebook such as this one, you can't expect to get the whole nine yards. I bought this for travelling, and it's perfect for what I need it for. Granted, the battery COULD be better, but processors in laptops do a lot more than a netbook, and this dv2 will run for 3 full hours and that's doing multiple tasks while being online, which isn't bad at all. I originally was going for an Asus, but that'll be my next purchase. All in all, a great notebook, love it for travel, for a nice price. (728.00 CDN taxes in)

Summary: I have the white model. It's an eye-catcher. My co-workers drool over it. I'm personally not crazy about the AMD chip. I think it's slow. I definitely don't like Vista 64 bit. It takes over 4 minutes to boot everything up. Also - there is only room for one 4 gig RAM. Yet, there is an open slot next to the RAM slot that isn't being used. I don't know what it's used for -- but RAM chips won't fit into it. ATC though, I love this little notebook. I own 4 notebooks. This one is used more than all of them now.

Ultra-portable Laptop at 3.8 lb!
by barosskhmer on October 5, 2009
Pros: Bought it for $454.99, ebay sellers sometimes sell it at buy it now price for $400 or less, LED screen, 92% sized keyboard, lighter than most laptops if not all.
Cons: Single core processor, warm vent, no internal dvd/blu-ray drive, 2 hour battery life or less, can't multi-task, hard to type sometimes, the scroll sometimes go all over the place while typing, the scroll bar on the touch pad is hard to use.
Summary: I can't write anything because the laptop keeps making me delete what I write for no apparent reason. You will experience this yourself if you get this laptop.

Summary: Small and light but large enough to do the job. Fits on the end table perfectly. More than fast enough. The keys are easy to use. Much better than my ASUS 10". Free upgrade to Windows 7 on the way. Very attractive appearance. The shiny black finish is actually a bonus, it makes me wipe down my laptop more frequently, which is something we should all do anyway.

You gotta Love it
by arlingtonmorgan on August 17, 2009
Pros: This is what portable laptops should be from start. This baby packs more processing power than any netbook in town, and the graphics subsystem makes it more appealing for gaming and watching high-def movies.
Cons: Maybe it's just a little pricey, but that's just me.
Summary: Can't complaint.

The sweetspot for screen size
by renegades625 on August 10, 2009
Pros: 12" screen is bigger and with better resolution than a netbook. Keyboard is easy to use. Good performance with 4GB or RAM and 512MB discrete graphics. Sleek design gets a lot of compliments and attention. External DVD drive. HDMI output is awesome.
Cons: Battery life is much worse than expected for its size. The Athlon Neo processor runs a little hot and requires the fan to run a lot, although usually its quiet. Athlon Neo CPU is the bottleneck in performance (3.2 in Vista, everything else is 4.0+)
Summary: Awesome laptop, definitely the best I have owned in the last 5 years. It's the perfect size, I was always unhappy with my 14" Dell Inspiron and 10" Acer ...
Summary: Awesome laptop, definitely the best I have owned in the last 5 years. It's the perfect size, I was always unhappy with my 14" Dell Inspiron and 10" Acer netbook and I found the sweet spot in between them. The performance is much better than my netbook, almost as good as my Inspiron was (just cant compete with dual-core CPU tho). Battery life could be better but it isn't a deal breaker for me. If it might be for you, consider just buying another battery and getting 5hrs of life. This laptop has a lot of style; it is thin, glossy, shiny, and looks sexy. I get compliments on it all the time, more than anything else I own: "Where did you get that laptop? It must have been expensive! How thin is it? Mine is way too big! Where can I get one like that?!!!"
This laptop needs a cheap dual-core processor and a 9-cell battery to be a perfect performer, although that would add significant weight making it unattractive to carry around. The only problem I have with it is its lack of CPU power. The system sometimes gets stuck waiting for the CPU while its pegged at 100% trying to catch up. Like I said, the AMD Athlon Neo CPU is definitely the weakest component and is the bottleneck in performance for this system. Everything else performs outstandingly well. I would highly recommend swapping out the original HDD with a solid state drive for better performance and reliability, I'm really glad I did. Consider running Windows XP Pro 64-bit on it as well, Vista has been very problematic and buggy for me... This laptop ran much better once I made the switch to a decent operating system.1 out of 1 users found this user opinion helpful.

Great performance, light, good battery, GREAT!!
by Count Scrofula on July 10, 2009
Pros: Great display, I'm getting 5 hours from my battery, 320 gb sata hd, 4gb ram, graphics card with dedicated 512mb ram, external cd/dvd recorder, and it was only $600! Includes win 7 upgrade. Runs fps shooters and dvd's beautifully.
Cons: Vista! Glossy finish is a fingerprint and smudge magnet.

Summary: I was waffling between a netbook and a big desktop replacement. I wanted something that could play dvd's smoothly, play games, etc., as well as the normal office apps and surfing., but I'm tired of 7#+ laptops. I want something thin and light.. I considered netbooks, but most are capped at 1 gb ram (I know, some go to 2gb) and it was looking like it was going to run $400+ to get a good one with a 2gb, an outboard CD/DVD, plus a ram upgrade. Then I saw this...for the same configuration I go it was $850 on the HP configurator. But, at Microcenter it was 650 w/ a 50 mir. They didn't have the rebate paperwork, so they charged me $50 less, so it was $600 plus tax out of pocket. Only a pound more than a netbook, bigger and higher res screen, 4gb ram instead of 1, 320 gb sata drive instead of a 160gb pata, usb external cd/dvd burner. One of the least expensive laptops with a dedicated ram video card. HAs done everything I want so far, dvd's look great, high res and smooth. Loaded half life 2 orange box, which supposedly has highe minmum requirements and it runs smooth as butter with eveything on highest quality. I'm sure some of the newest games will choke it. I really would have liked to hold out for the dual core version of the neo, but this is fine. The folks complaining about bettery life are having a different experience than I...I've been surfing and typing right now for over two hours and I'm at 68% battery left. Front left gets warm, certainly not hot, and nothing near like the clown who thinks fires may break out! You probably notice it more since it is the front left instead of the back, so your left hand/wrist notice the heat.
Really, the only negative is vista. However, it does come with the 64 bit version, so all 4mb are utilized, and the upgrade to windows 7 this fall is included.
Honestly, so much more than a netbook for only $200 more, and much lighter/portable than a regular notebook. I strongly recommend at least giving it a try!1 out of 1 users found this user opinion helpful.
