Awesome Buy, Great Laptop! December 31, 2008
A. Harford (Connecticut, USA)
I would definitely recommend this laptop to anyone looking to upgrade. I had an old Dell Inspiron 1200 (512 MB RAM, 40GB HD basic laptop) from 2005 and decided earlier this year that it was time to upgrade to a faster computer better suited for my needs. I am a college student and frequently play World of Warcraft. I wanted an entertainment laptop that would be able to run WoW properly. After 6 months of intense research I settled on this laptop. The features are excellent. I will comment on the main features that make this laptop an excellent buy and a great deal for the price.
The main features are the 4 GB of memory, 250 GB HD and the awesome graphics card (NVIDIA GeForce 9600M GT with up to 2302MB Total Available Graphics Memory with 512MB dedicated). I could not find another laptop with this combination at a reasonable price. The 16" widescreen allows enough room for a numpad, and the screen is bright and sharp! Ever since laptops switched over to widescreen, I find that the 15.4" laptops are too small - 16" is the perfect size and the laptop is not too heavy, given its size. This laptop has a subwoofer and controls for treble and basss - for a laptop, the sound is awesome - definitely NOT "tinney" like the old laptop speakers.
This laptop rivals an HP desktop computer - the graphics are awesome in World of Warcraft (lagging in the game is a thing of the past) and I can quickly and easily multitask. The physical appearance of this laptop is stunning - crisp grey and black, white lights on the display. This laptop is an eye-catcher!
I've found that with the cheaper laptops ($600-$900 range), you often have to sacrifice a desired feature (i.e., go with a smaller screen, less memory, smaller hard drive or older graphics card). With this laptop you don't have to give up any of those features (and of course, the best price can be found on Amazon.com)!
If you are looking for an entertainment laptop capable of running World of Warcraft flawlessly, or are looking to upgrade an old computer with a faster one with great features for a reasonable price then this is the laptop for you!
Excelente Laptop December 26, 2008

Al principio pense que el tamano era muy grande, pero al compararla con una de 15,1 pulgadas, me decidi por la HP X16-1040us. Todo funciona de acuerdo a las especificaciones que tiene. Es bastante rapida y lo que mas me gusto es el lector de huellas digitales, no he vuelto a digitar una clave mas, con una actualizacion del software incluso puedes anadirle seguridad a los archivos. Aprovechen el precio especial que tiene porque vale la pena.
Personalmente me gusta el teclado en espanol, pero con el teclado en ingles no hay problema con los acentos y la "n". La pantalla tiene mucho brillo y se ve bien sin importar el medioambiente donde la uses. La probe con un monitor LCD Samsung 226bw de 22 pulgadas y me da la resolucion nativa del monitor y ademas tiene 3 modalidades de uso con monitores externos.
La uso para Artes Graficas junto a mi tablero digital Wacom Intuos 6 x 8.
Les recomiendo elegir el bulto Targus CPT400.

This laptop is a replacement for my HP zv6000 series. This is truly a great laptop. I think HP hit a home run on this one!
First, the performance is great. I will update later after I run my DVD NLE (video editing) software, Avid Liquid 7, but so far, the performance is stellar. It is fast. This comes configured with Vista Home Premium (64 bit) and it runs like a champ. I love the eye candy with the Aero interface. As someone who is highly experienced with computing, I was leery about Vista, but there do not appear any problems at all with this flavor of Vista on this machine. It's great!
The screen is gorgeous. Color, brightness, resolution all pop out. The flush screen makes for very clean lines and a professional feel. I feel the 16" screen is a perfect size. Not too small and not humongous, either. It has the wide-screen 16:9 ratio so movies look great.
The keyboard is great. This chrome design looks great but it has a solid tactile feel and is not a cheap keyboard. There is no flex in it at all. Solid. And I love having the dedicated number keypad. Time to sell my wireless Targus number keypad. The number pad keys are slightly narrower than a standard pad, but that's quite OK. You really do not notice it too much and it is a very, very small price to pay to have a dedicated pad. No more [fn] button and pressing numbers on a QWERTY keyboard!
This leads in to the size of this laptop. It is compact, thin, and even narrower in depth than my 15" laptop was. It is also lighter. There is so much to this laptop in a medium size. Very portable even though it is my desktop replacement. The AC/DC brick is even smaller. It is one of the smaller, lighter type of bricks that you will not notice in your bag.
I am a music educator. I loved my zv6000's sound system. There was none better than it on the market. This unit's sound is also tops for a laptop system. The built-in subwoofer does make a difference and there is no tinny quality to the sound. And you can get decent volume from them also. Depending on the sound levels of what you are watching or listening to, you can hear these speakers throughout the whole house. The Altec Lansing speakers really do their job well.
I love the fingerprint reader. I no longer have to type in passwords to log on to Windows or any webpage that requires a login. After I set up the login for the webpage once, I use the fingerprint reader and it's done. I use to use Roboform autofiller and I suppose it will still have its purpose for online purchases, but for everyday logging in (like my bank or corporate email or blogs) it is just a fingerprint swipe away. Very convenient. And cool.
I really like the mouse touch pad. It has a good feel to it and good response.
I like the touch playback controls at the top of the keyboard. Yes, there are some issues with the volume control as it is a bit flaky. I avoid using it when something is booting up. For example, wait until *after* your DVD player is running and at the menu to change the volume level. Otherwise it gets lost in the CPU cycles or something and you can hear it clicking and it takes forever to respond. Another thing that is helpful is to just use the really cool remote that comes with the laptop. I found that using the volume controls on the remote is easier and it responds better.
The remote control is stored in the Express Card slot. It is the newer style with a rotating ring around the select key which acts as a type of scroll wheel. For example, when you are watching a DVD and you put it in pause, moving this wheel advances or rewinds the video frame-by-frame. In certain menus like when in Windows Media Center, it scrolls the menu up or down. I haven't tested the range limits on the remote, but I do know that it still works strong at least 30' feet away, more than enough for the average living room.
Like I said at the beginning of this review, I purchased this laptop to do DVD editing and authoring. This computer has all the right ports: USB, Firewire, and eSATA. There are not many laptops that have the IEEE or Firewire port and that this also has an eSATA port is bonus. This will make dumping my DV video easy while having a fast data transfer eSATA port for my external hard drive.
I'm very satisfied with the battery life. With the standard battery, I get about 3 hours with it. That is with WiFi enabled and mostly surfing the net. I purchased the 12 cell battery and I get about 6 hours while surfing and watching a DVD. I love it. This bigger battery sticks out the bottom. Like most people, I find it to be somewhat of a bonus that it protrudes as it does provide a good typing angle, an extra "handle" to grab when carrying it from room to room, and extra elevation from a surface to allow more air to circulate from the fan.
Speaking of the fan, it is extremely quiet. And it doesn't need to run very much. My last laptop ran very warm too hot and the fan ran almost continuously. I had to get accustomed to that when using it on my lap. This laptop, however, runs very cool. No overheating.
I have no need for the webcam, but I did try it out and it seems fine.
Just burned two Lightscribe discs and that made a nice, personalized Christmas present.
I hope that this review helps you in your purchase. I feel that HP really made a great computer in this HDX. I think it is at a great price point and has tons of features (ample ports, 6 in 1 card reader, 320 MB HD, WiFi/Bluetooth, fingerprint reader, terrific screen, light weight, good battery life, graphics card with large memory, 4GB RAM). I simply find it a joy to work with.
