Discount HP - Pavilion Laptop DV7-3085DX 17.3" LED Wide Screen 6GB Ram

Customer Ratings:

I've had this computer for over 2 years now, and have only recently had to replace the power cord. Being a truck driver, my power cords are often mangled easily, but this one lasted much longer than expected. As far as the physical casing goes, there is no major wear on any part of the computer and only a small chip on the case from dropping it off of a three-foot high shelf onto a steel floor a couple times. I've never had a laptop that was able to withstand the abuse of being in a truck nearly as well. It is also capable of complete versatility; I handle all of my financial documents, taxes, trip paperwork, video calls to family back home, and anything I need for my business with it, and am still able to play some of the more advanced computer games (even WoW plays on high-res with no lag). Overall, I would highly recommend this system for anyone interested in a good, stable, versatile computer that can take pretty much anything you throw at it!

Just got this model for Christmas. There are veriations of this model along with different prices. It's a bit more expensive than most computers that will do similiar functions, with only the exception of having a core i7 processor (quad core). All the other computers that had i7 were way over priced built for gaming, but from that prespective, it's actually one of the cheaper ones if that'll be your primary use or want to have it as an option. On appearance, its black sleek look is very impressive. You'll have to get the customized version from hp.com if that's not your taste. The widescreen looks great that's nice for watching movies. The sound is pretty impressive too...lots better than most laptops, complete with sub and all. Windows 7 is sweet; so far opening programs fast and running it smooth. The side number keys are a plus too. I gave it s 4/5 because for the price I think they could've added more; like a blu-ray drive, 8GB RAM instead of just 6GB, a TV-tuner would also make it a total power house. The spec say it weights 7.7 lbs, but it feels more like 10 lbs. The heat vent felt pretty hot on the ones displayed in the store, but that may be because it had been left on all day. Currently it feels a little warmer than other non-high performing laptops, but not too bad. I'm thinking that may be an issue in the future, that's why you should get an extended warranty on it from hp.com. It's expensive, but well worth the investment...just calculated it into your total cost! Overall it's still a very cool laptop and I would highly recommend it.

Even though this wasn't one of my most heavily used machines, the battery didn't last long and of course right after the warranty expired, an expensive keyboard replacement was needed. On the positive side, you get a large 17" display, good quality speakers, and while it's an older device, its far from obsolete with a Core i7 processor and 6 GB of memory. If you're in the market for a used PC, you might want to consider this one with the understanding that you'll probably end needing to have it plugged in most of the time.

Honest reviews on HP - Pavilion Laptop DV7-3085DX 17.3" LED Wide Screen 6GB Ram

This laptop has everything I would ever need. I have had this laptop for two years and haven't found anything I don't like about it. To be honest with vista vs windows 7, vista is the best in my opinion. I know this laptop comes with vista, but a lot of stuff requires vista or older. Great laptop.
