Below, we passed this evaluation, take a look at this product has a place which is worth our attention?
Pavilion dv6 Pavilion dv series of large-size products, compared with 14-inch mainstream of dv4 superior in overall quality. As Hewlett-Packard during the year focused on the introduction of home entertainment audio and video products, dv6, not only in the hardware configuration using high-performance solution at the same time to achieve a breakthrough in design, the many highlights of the metal wire drawing appearance, BeatsAudio sound system dv6 become a veritable home entertainment video platform. In addition, in terms of price, dv6 and the entire dv series to achieve the maximum extent possible to consider cost-effective, high performance at mainstream price points with it this summer one of the best-selling products.
dv6 has a lot of areas of concern in the overall design. Compared with the rich color many consumer notebooks, the aircraft on the color selection, obviously low-key, with black metal brushed body with silver waist, though not conspicuous, but showing a low-key calm consumer notebook The temperament of fashion. And the metal body paint material body of the dv4, more texture.
Pavilion dv6 selected popular floating keyboard, 15.6 inches of products, but its body thickness control, and therefore does not look bloated; BeatsAudio sound unit configuration is the biggest bright spot, to provide users with more high-quality audio experience.
Compared with a little moderation of the dv4 into the metal atmosphere dv6 more impressive.
Appearance: vertical brushed metal design different
The introduction of the metal wire drawing process for the design of the notebook computer can be described as entering a new era, compared with a traditional matte metal material or paint materials, the use of a metal wire drawing process design notebook products looks even more from the appearance of one of the texture, more stylish, is nowadays the most popular and most popular design approach.
Pavilion dv6 with the times, the metal wire drawing process to win more users of all ages, and the use of vertical metal wire drawing processing is currently rare notebook designs. Compared with the horizontal metal wire drawing, vertical brushed texture can be better for the refraction of light, especially for the roof is often in the upright position, the light refraction effect is more obvious and, therefore, given the dv6 different feeling.
Prior to our evaluation of the dv4, the main the dv6 body the same in black, together with a silver metallic finish waist, black reflects a calm and stylish silver trim line so that the whole is more lively, more texture. The design of the roof part, dv6 used rare longitudinal metal wire drawing process, to create a good lighting effects.
Each section of the HP Pavilion series notebooks will be metal texture of the "hp" LOGO in the body top cover on the lower left corner of India, the launch of the Pavilion dv6 is no exception, as opposed to most embedded in the top middle of the huge logo , the HP logo and the overall design style of each other, introverted, calm, and fashion sense.
With the dv4, dv6 the body material with the former, but the body design at the end of the same post-Alice-style design for the entire body to increase the sense of space, but compared with the dv4, the dv6 cooling components and arranged in the body after part, dv6 the Alice after the design is not entirely in order to enhance the cooling efficiency.
Pavilion dv6 is a 15.6-inch large-screen laptop, portability, but can guarantee to provide users with enough clear, broad vision. The display does not use a larger resolution, but reached the mainstream 1366 768 pixels, 16:9 aspect ratio is more suitable for the visual experience of home laptop users. LED backlit material to more energy-efficient notebook computer can help to effectively extend the life time, at the same time provide users with clear, sharp, realistic visual effects.
Today, a lot of professional home entertainment notebook computer with the well-known speaker manufacturer, equipped with a high quality audio output sound unit provides users with high-quality audio experience, but also eliminates the need for many of my friends to buy professional speaker expenses, from which we can also see, more and more obvious in the notebook computer hardware configuration, design and other aspects of homogenization, the speaker system as a breakthrough in attracting consumers.
HP and BeatsAudio at the beginning of the year reached a cooperation agreement, which the BeatsAudio sound system fully equipped with high-end audio and video entertainment products, through a set of professional solutions, excellent performance in the audio output from the actual audition. , even if the author so that the "fungus", you can feel with ordinary notebook speakers, sound, higher resolution, and there were significant improvements in the bass, giving the powerful audio experience.

Today's notebook design, the more prominent of the user experience of the product, while at the same time focus on the overall simplicity and beauty, a large number of function keys arranged in the traditional laptop design has been the current crop of designers abandoned in favor of the various function keys F1-F12 keys, the design does not require the Fn key with will be able to achieve the corresponding functions, the traditional F1-F12 keys with the Fn key with the original function, this model may seem today, more can be widely recognized by users.
It can be said, the Pavilion, dv6 is a typical representative of this product, the body in addition to the necessary power button and a quick function keys to open the browser, you will not find any extra buttons. But do not worry, to see that row of the keyboard to the top F1-F12 keys? Yes, press them, you can achieve the the keycap identified corresponding traditional F1-F12 keys via the Fn key with the corresponding function. the dv4 The keyboard uses a HP laptop chocolate keycap square keycap surface together with the matte
resin coating to enhance the feel comfort.
Home notebooks, the application of the HP Pavilion dv6z battery fingerprint reader is increasingly rare, this is because home users for the system security requirements and business users only need to set the power-on password to be able to meet their requirements, but the Pavilion dv6 is still for the user configured with a fingerprint reader, optional for the user's system security. We also can see the dv6 C, the surface panel and top cover, but also the vertical metal wire drawing process.

In the front left side of the body, the design of the card reader slot. Today, the design of the front of the reader users much recognition, but also very easy to use, but is also a front-end design is completely different to the experience of front-end cross-sectional design on the front bezel, the former is convenient, quick, and then you need to lift the body's front-end to insert or remove the memory card, dv6 reader design on the front end the cross section for the user to provide the greatest convenience.
