Our Review

For $999 the 15.6in HP Pavilion dv6-6B02tx is a decent value allrounder that hits really hard overall. This is due to the combination of both a 2nd Gen Intel Core i5 processor and the well above average AMD Radeon HD 6770M dedicated graphics card.

Processor
The 6B02tx has a 2nd Gen Intel Core i5-2430M (2.4GHz), a mid-range processor that will have no problems with productivity applications and most intensive software. It can burst up to 3GHz using Turbo Boost 2.0 Technology if a particularly demanding program is running.

Graphics
It has a dedicated graphics card called the AMD Radeon HD 6770M. It’s one of the fastest mid-range AMD cards, and most modern games will run smoothly at high settings.

RAM
It has 4GB of RAM, which is enough to run several programs at once smoothly.

Storage
It has a 500GB hard disk drive, which is about average in size.

Screen
It has a 15.6in (1,366x768 resolution) gloss screen.

Portability
The 6B02tx has average portability, because it weighs 2.63kg and is 35.2mm thick. It'll be straightforward to carry around.
