The HP HDX 16-1370US is a portable, full-fledged multimedia laptop that weighs only 6.7 pounds, yet manages to house a large 16" BrightView display. It features an Intel Core 2 Duo processor (2.26GHz), up to 8GB of RAM, and a 500GB SATA hard-disc drive. More importantly, the notebook boasts a powerful nVidia GeForce GT 130M video card that allows the unit to quickly process high-definition 3D graphics without unwanted lag and system interruptions. Keep in mind that the HDX doesn’t support full 1080p resolution, but it does sport an HDMI port for exporting such content to a 1080p compliant television set. And as for the audio, the HDX is laced with both Altec Lansing speakers AND an Altec Lansing subwoofer. These components combined with the built-in Dolby Home Theater technology allow the HP HDX 16-1370US to deliver surround sound quality sound anywhere and at any time, including an airplane flight.
