If you’re on a budget but still want to get a nice, full-featured laptop as a Christmas gift, the HP Pavilion DV6-1350US 15.6-inch Laptop would be a great choice! It has a 2.2Ghz processor, 320GB of storage and 4GB of memory (DDR3 RAM). RAM can be upgraded to a maximum of 8 GB for increased multitasking performance.
What I love about HP laptops is that they are very affordable, but they almost always come with a very competent set of specs and features. The HP Pavilion DV6-1350US has an Intel GMA 4500MHD processor with 1.6 GB dedicated to graphics memory. There is also an HD screen with a resolution of 1366 x 768 (LED backlight).
The HP Pavilion DV6-1350US Notebook PC is powered by a 12-cell lithium-ion battery that can last for about 4 hours in standard mode and even longer when used in power save mode. Other features include an 8X LightScribe DVD drive, WiFi Link 1000BGN and Bluetooth connectivity. Like many HP laptops, this model even comes with a small remote that comes in handy when you use the laptop to watch movies or listen to music. This laptop model mainly has a glossy black surface with silver accents and some decorative circular patterns (which add a bit of edge). Overall, it’s a well-rounded and versatile laptop that would be great for work or play. Currently, the HP Pavilion DV6-1350US model is priced at around $669 each, giving you good value for money.
