2: The attractive appearance of the details of the dual-microphone design

HP DV2000 In a sense, has been completely no longer confined to a laptop the other hand, its appearance, you will feel that this is a work of art, does not exaggerated, and generous international companies, often not only to fight is to configure . dv2000 the latest HP Imprint technology applications, with a smooth coating and a unique mosaic design, beautiful luster, looks graceful, slip through your fingers trace the smooth, elegant atmosphere, do not reveal is also cutting edge!

In the top of the screen, HP dual-microphone set for the dv2000, apparently used to facilitate chat use, but it is very strange, we received this dv2011 notebook with a camera, I checked to check HP official information the contrary, with a low version of the dv2000 but with a 1.3 megapixel camera, the author has been no clear reason. In any case, the dual-microphone design is commendable, if you buy with the version of the camera, communication is quite smooth.

3: Touch keys, a unique touchpad design

In addition to the appearance of our fleeting glimpse of the feeling, the HP dv2000 manipulation surface enough to the same amazing our eye. dv2000 with the full-size 86-key keypad, and button design is quite elegant, the appearance is very similar to the style of the Apple MacBook, but replaced with a black design fills the wide bond length, feel good, very atmospheric, usually, this The design not only has a good feel, visually very open. Fn key combinations, users can easily achieve almost all shortcut function.

And V3000, DV2000 uses the same innovative touch shortcut keys, touch can be achieved operating orderly bursts of sound, and the operation will be issued, dv2000 had the Compaq DVD Play, the next touch keys in the Windows status , you can watch DVD movies, and entertainment life more comfortable with sex. Normal conditions, the a dv2000 indicator are blue in the video HP dv1600 series, we have also seen the same handwriting. Above the keyboard shortcut keys from left to right, the main function as follows: the QuickPlay, player, DVD player, media player control buttons (including after a play / pause, before a stop), the mute button, volume control keys In addition, above the keyboard at the far left is the power button.

DV2000 seems to use the Altec Lansing brand of speakers above the keyboard and touch buttons blend out both the audio unit for audio-visual positioning of the notebook, brand speakers naturally considerably.

Here, I talk about this touchpad hardware switch, namely, The TouchPad Lock Lock key to Blu-ray, the normal state press will shield the touch pad, and it will display a red light, and many of my friends to buy a notebook at home, most cases, with a mouse, therefore, be able to easily open and shielded touchpad is very practical.

4: DV2000 Interface Design: Dual headphones, with the hardware wireless switch

Let us a comprehensive understanding of the dv2000 interface. The left side of the fuselage, dv2000 set a large number of interfaces, heavily guarded, from the inside to the outside of the S-Video port, VGA video output, docking connector, Ethernet card interface, USB 2.0 interface, an IEEE 1394 port, Express card is inserted slot (supports both 34cm, 54cm Express cards), 5 in 1 card reader (supports SD / MMC / MS. / MS PRO / xD memory card), card reader next to an indicator light in the reader shows the read and write state of the memory card.

The right side of the fuselage, dv2000 from the inside to the outside in order to design a power connector, RJ11 telephone line interface, two USB ports and DVD burner. This side of the port to be less open wide open, use neat attention to the case, you will find this power interface is rather special, in fact, into the power of words to Blu-ray display.

DV2000 on the back of any other interface in addition to the heat out of the window, the front-end and rarely, only with one set of audio HP Pavilion dv6100 battery interfaces. MIC input, headphone output, headphone output / optical output, the left-most infrared communications port, should be noted that the optical output port can also plug in your headphones, this is equivalent to have dual headphone output, which kinds of design, I believe a lot of people are seen in mp3, is called the couple to use appropriate, is used here, can be considered to take into account is designed for couples. In addition, is also necessary expenditures, the front left side of the site also provides an independent wireless network switch, the picture quality is not good, the look is not very clear, but it does such a thing, help us to turn on the wireless use.

5: a few interesting places: lines / graphics / QuickPlay

DV2000 a few features, the first design, the front has been talking about the dv2000 is a talent for work, here, we look at the dv2000 chassis, fine and took a photo, you can see the dv2000's surface consists of many lines zigzag lines, very elegant, walk, carried away by giving a smooth, we can slowly feel.

In addition to the design features of the DV2000 connotation is very rich, first processor, dual-core T2400, of course, the other two DV2000 with the T2050 and T2250 processors, we have received this dv2000 with the T2400 processor. clocked at 1.83GHz with 2M L2 cache, 667MHz front side bus, the performance is very strong; The second is the graphics card, dv2000 series are equipped with NVIDIA Go 7200 graphics chip, memory is 32M, but from time to poor performance, HP did not shrink, which the notebook's Go 7200 graphics card is even stronger than some brands of Go 7300 graphics card, through the back of the test, you will be able to experience.

6: Test the HP dv2000 configuration

The HP sent us to test of dv2000 specific model for the dv2011TX, the highest configuration models using the T2400 dual-core processor, the other two with the T2050 and T2250 processors. dv2000 with a separate graphics distinguish it from the V3000 is a very remarkable feature is the dv2000 series of three models are the Go 7200 graphics card, these three configurable dv2000 notebook, in addition to a different processor, memory and hard, in addition to that low with a version of the 1.3 million pixel camera, high version does not provide.

Conventional PCMark05 performance testing, the HP Pavilion dv2100 battery CPU, memory and hard disk score higher, thanks to the 1.83GHz dual-core CPU, 1GB DDR2 memory and a 100G 5400 RPM high speed hard drive. Go 7200 graphics card, we would like to know how its 3D performance, I thought would be very general, but the result was somewhat unexpected, because before, we also tested some dual-core notebooks using the Go 7300 graphics card, but the score did not HP dv2011 7200 high, analysis of why HP did not shrink graphics because this is indeed reassuring, after all, this is a higher cost. The battery life test, the HP dv2011 for 185 minutes, equivalent to 3 hours, 5 minutes, quite good, taking into account household models, three hours is absolutely satisfactory.
