The HP Pavilion 17-f004dx<\/strong> is a 17.3-inch notebook. It is based on the AMD A10-5745M processor and comes with 6GB of system memory and a 750GB hard drive instead of usual 4GB RAM and 500GB HDD. The A10-5745M with four cores and the Radeon HD 8610G integrated graphics<\/a> is a rare CPU. Its performance is similar to the more popular dual-core Intel Core i3-4030U with the Intel HD 4400 IGP, meaning sufficient performance for day-to-day tasks and gaming on lower graphics settings.<\/p>\n

The 17-f004dx belongs to the desktop PC replacement segment. Its weight of 6.2 pounds isn’t suitable for carrying the device around much, but on the other side you get a plenty of screen real estate. The screen resolution is higher than on the majority of 15.6-inch<\/a> and smaller laptops. It’s 1600×900 pixels instead of 1366×768. This means more comfortable movie watching and work with big files like high-resolution images or Excel documents with lots of columns.<\/p>\n

Other highlights of this model are the built-in DVD optical drive, keyboard with a dedicated numeric pad, touchpad with left and right click buttons integrated in the surface, stereo speakers, 720p web camera, Wi-Fi and Ethernet LAN network connections, and a nice selection of ports and slots. Provided are three USBs, HDMI video output, and a media card reader. Omitted are the VGA video output port and Bluetooth.<\/p>\n

The chassis is made of plastics, but the Pavilion 17-f004dx has a bit of a luxury look. That’s thanks to an elegant shape with no excess ornaments, brushed metal-like finish on the palmrest, textured silverish display lid, and a fairly slim profile for a laptop of this size. It measures 1.1″ high. As a side note, the 17-f004dx is the first Pavilion 17 model sporting the new 2014 design. The previous version<\/a> has glossy plastics on the palm rests and is 0.2″ thicker.<\/p>\n

We have no info on battery life. But given that it has a 41Whr battery unit inside, the AMD A10 CPU, and a big screen, one can expect a run time of about four hours at best.<\/p>\n

Overall, this fairly priced model delivers good performance and lots of screen real estate in an elegant-looking package. Sure, it doesn’t have 1920×1080 Full HD display resolution, a top performing quad-core Intel i7 CPU, or keyboard backlight found on the premium-class notebooks like this one<\/a>, but it will suite computing needs of the vast majority of home and office users.<\/p>\n
