Reviews of HP Pavilion m7-1015dx Entertainment Notebook PC

Customer Ratings:

I need to buy a PC to run some Microsoft project and share point applications for my company. I've been a Mac only guy for at least 10 years, but I do know my way around the windows infrastructure. This is an i7 machine with a good amount of memory, and it does everything you need. The screen quality could be a little better although it is sufficient. The auto installed HP applications are a nightmare. I would strongly recommend disabling all of them. Warning, this machine is not only big but it's also pretty happy I had to switch briefcases in order to be able to carry with me on my last trip. As a desktop replacement it's a homerun but as a traveling computer just keep that in mind. I bought the refurb and so far no problems.

HP Pavilion m7-1015dx Entertainment Notebook PC I started having issues about 6 months into ownership. After a plethora of phone calls to HP tech support, they finally determined a hard drive was failing. I won't even go in to that nightmare (getting the hard drive replaced when I need this laptop daily.) Anyway, the "new" hard drive is really putting out some heat and I'm afraid we're heading down the same path. I have installed all my software so many times that I have my 20 digit MS product key memorized.

I've decided that I'm going to buy cheap, cheap, cheap laptops from this point forward, and treat them all as disposable. But not everyone can afford that.

Other than the failure of the hardware, this is a great Win 7 laptop. Just too darn bad a critical piece of the hardware is not up to par.

Honest reviews on HP Pavilion m7-1015dx Entertainment Notebook PC

When I saw the rave reviews for this laptop, I thought this would be an amazing deal, and would be a laptop that could last for a long time. Sadly, this machine is plagued with problems that add up as time goes on. I actually purchased this particular laptop last year, but had to return it right away (less than 30 days) because of a faulty hard drive. Now almost a half-year later, many issues have arisen. I was no longer able to view pictures at first, and there were many software issues. Now not only is the mouse severely malfunctioning, but the sound card is completely out, and like the previous commenter, the HD is having major issues, and I've tried every possible way to fix it, and I consider myself pretty tech-savvy.

The previous HP laptop I had lasted me over five years, and that machine serviced me very well. That one had minor malfunctions, but they were all fixed just fine at little or no cost. However, this m7 has turned out to be a disappointment, and just managed to begin to majorly malfunction after a short time. Sadly, I will have to purchase another laptop that is not an m7. That is a real shame because there are so many quality features that the m7 has that most other HP laptops do not have like the backlit keyboard (which is a GREAT touch, but I can now live without it), the extended battery, the Beats audio, and the advanced Core i7. However, all of those features are overshadowed by the phenomenal failures that happen over a short period of time with this particular product. I really gave this laptop a chance, but it has now failed me twice.

If you want a top-of-the-line computer with amazing features that may only last you less than a few months, give this a shot. If you want a durable and longer-lasting laptop, then you are much better off looking elsewhere.
