The G4 has rather impressive speakers, much better than its rivals of the same class... so no worries there~  thumbup.gif

At least better build compared to 1st Gen i series from HP(G42). Wonder why 2nd Gen G4 is without 3.0USB

What I have to say regarding this laptop is- see to believe... this laptop is non-photogenic (dunno why), but the real thing looks very sweet  nod.gif
Loved the silver color one especially~
The red color would be better if it ain't so dark, girls will love it if its brighter or perhaps even slightly pinkish  laugh.gif
Yeah, I've tried the speakers, very very loud  laugh.gif

@wyh, I don't even have the notebook, how to open dedicated thread haha  laugh.gif

Yes yes not photogenic enough especially the red colour. SEE IN REALITY THEN YOU WILL <3 IT. Don't have to be so pink la, most important its not traditional black/grey then its okay for girls already. I went home and told my gf i got a grey, straight way, why didn't you get the red one. hahahahaha

Not much people is responding to Hp G4 series, i wonder why. Compared to Inspiron 14R, Toshiba L645 and etc.

They're not very popular because of the comparatively lower specs against other brands  nod.gif
The more attractive one would be the RM1999 variant. But even then, most people would go for the Asus 43Sj instead due to the 2 years warranty..
Well, you owners could do some temperature tests and then share with potential buyers  nod.gif


Added on May 11, 2011, 3:03 pm

Yes, I'm not very sure whether the promotion is still on, but if one is not into gaming and just want a regular, everyday laptop, the 3 years warranty will make the laptop a good bargain  nod.gif

yeahhhh 3 years for some sellers only. Just that HP is lack of eSata & USB3.0 thats all. Anything else HP G4 is missing g????

Starting at: 4.85lb / 2.20 kg (weight will vary by configuration)
One (1) Year Warranty (Part/Labor/Carry In)
FREE HP SEAT Notebook 16-inch Commercial Case
integrated VGA webcam

I wonder why this model is not listed in HP website even though in Malaysia some shops are selling it already. Not much info in the website. Seen it myself in PC Depot (Ipoh).

Difference in this model:
1. DESIGN 90% Same as G4 but quality of the plastic is different. Not as sturdy as G4 (what you pay is what you get)
2. Free DOS
3. optical drive without lightscribe

Seriously good for budget(system builder) hunters, same spec as HP G4-1006. Just that the build and the OS difference.


Added on May 12, 2011, 11:34 amI can say 430 ALC is something like economical model but getting a decent spec model. (similar to inspiron 14 which is cheaper than 14r)

The 3years warranty, is it free or need to add some amount of money? Coz from the shop i bought yesterday, the seller said warranty is 1 yr only. Pay rm188 to get 2 yrs extra. Anyone can clarify this for me plz? Tq

Depends on reseller's promotion given by distributors. Yay another user of G4
