Versatile standard laptop that can be used at home or outdoors

The HP Pavilion 14-dv has a monitor size of 14 inches and weighs approximately 1.42kg as measured.

With this weight, it is portable and can be used for both home and portable use.

The HP Pavilion 14-dv has a display with an screen-to-body ratio of 84.0%. A 14-inch screen was obtained with the same dimensions as the conventional 13-inch screen.

Thus, the width of the left and right bezels is slim, giving a stylish impression.

Rich interface, easy to use

The HP Pavilion 14-dv is a PC that combines the best parts of a mobile notebook PC and a standard notebook PC, and is attractive for its rich interface.

On the right side is a USB-C port that supports USB PD that can stream video and charge the PC itself, a conventional USB-A port, an HDMI port, and a DC jack.

It’s also a good point that USB-A can be used on the left or right side in the form of an audio jack and USB-A on the left side.

A design that satisfies the desire to own with an HP-like design focus

HP Pavilion 14-dv adopts SAKURA color. Although it has a cute color, it also has a high-class feel because the body uses an aluminum frame.

The latest MacBook Air is a notebook PC that I would recommend for women who think it’s a bit expensive.

Price, difference from the top model

The lower grade HP Pavilion 14-dv can be purchased from 92,000 yen including tax. Since this model has a memory slot description, it seems that you can add it yourself.

However, since it may not be covered by the manufacturer’s warranty, if you want peace of mind, you should buy the standard G2 model, which has 16GB of memory from the start.

Plus, if you buy Microsoft Office Home & Business 2021 as a set,goodTo meet the conditions, Microsoft Office can be purchased for 13,433 yen. This can be done not only with Office but also with guarantees, so if you want to buy at a great price, we recommend using a coupon at the time of purchase and the options to buy as a set.

Difference from the top model

  • Memory is DDR4 instead of DDR5
  • The pixel count of the camera is 920,000 pixels instead of 5 million pixels
  • Fingerprint recognition instead of face recognition
  • USB-C 3.2 Gen 2 instead of USB-C Thunderbolt
  • Slightly lower battery capacity
  • Special keyboard layout

Although the cost has been reduced in detail, CPU performance etc. are no different from the high-end model, so “I want to specialize in portability” and “I want to connect multiple devices and transfer a large amount of data. If you don’t need “I want”, you can’t hear the difference, so if you just want it for home use, this model is sufficient.

Prices and specifications are subject to change, so be sure to check the official website.

The HP Pavilion 14-dv is a standard 14-inch notebook PC.

SAKURA color is adopted for the aluminum frame.

SAKURA is a color close to the rose gold color used in smartphones.

The side of the keyboard is silver in color and gives a calm impression.

The screws can be turned using a precision screwdriver.

keyboard touchpad

HP Pavilion 14-dv adopts a full-size keyboard. The fingerprint scanner is located under the arrow keys.that isHP Pavilion AeroIt’s a layout that can be seen in other places and is unique to low-priced models.

I’m concerned about the type of keyboard that has extra keys on the right side of the enter key and the typing position is slightly off to the left.

A large touchpad is used and operability is high. The feeling of pressing is soft, so people like it and hate it.

No camera shutter.

It has a keyboard backlight.

Performance

Cinebench R23

Cinebench R23 is a reference software that generates computer graphics with CPU performance only and measures CPU performance. The higher the score, the better the performance, but there is a possibility that there is a difference between the actual performance during the running the actual software, but the results are as follows.

6514 points for the latest Cinebench R23 (minimum test duration disabled)

The multi-core performance and single-core performance didn’t grow significantly, as the manufacturer seems to have adjusted the performance.

It seems good to think of it as a PC for office work.

PCMark 10

PCMark 10, which scores by running batch files of Microsoft Office compatible software and image editing software, has a score of 5242, and Microsoft Office is a very comfortable level.

It can also be used for image editing and video editing.

Continuous battery run time

Measured by PCMark 10 battery test.

HP Pavilion 14-dv battery operating time
PCMark 10 Modern office 5 hours and 50 minutes

The HP Pavilion 14-dv has a disadvantageous result in continuous battery runtime compared to the PC of the same size.

This is probably due to low battery capacity.

SSD Read/Write

Crystal Discmark results. The installed SSD is from Western Digital. There is almost no speed drop even when reading or writing large amounts of data in both sequential write and read. Random access is also good and I think there is no problem even if it is used creatively.

RAW development time verified with Lightroom Classic CC

We simultaneously exported 100 24MP RAW files captured with the α7II to Adobe Lightroom Classic CC and tested the speed.

Set the quality to 100 with the initial Lightroom Classic CC preset and export to desktop. The results are as follows.

The performance of Intel 12th generation processor is well demonstrated, so the performance is comparable to premium PCs sold by HHP Japan

The software issue is also considered, but the performance of the integrated GPU could not be demonstrated.

Information about PC temperature and fan noise

CPU peak temperature information

HWInfo measured the behavior of Cinebench R23 while running the 10 minute test.

No thermal throttling occurred, stable behavior.

However, the operating frequency is gradually decreasing, perhaps intentionally limiting performance.

Rather than pursuing performance, the HP Pavilion 14-dv appears to limit its performance to ensure long runtimes on a small battery.

PC surface temperature

Measure PC surface temperature during the 10-minute Cinebench R23 test.

Approximately 35.9°C at hottest spot. No worries about low-temperature burns and no stress

fan sound

About 39.2dB in performance mode. You can hear the fan noise, but it’s not annoying.

HP Pavilion 14-dv review and summary

good point

  • Luxury aluminum frame
  • Fresh SAKURA color in PC industry
  • Can be purchased from 100,000 yen or less, ideal for home use
  • easy to use interface

Point of concern

  • keyboard layout
  • The battery’s continuous running time is less than that of portable laptop PCs on the market
  • Standard monitor color gamut

Entry level laptop recommended for students and business people

It’s wonderful to be able to buy the latest notebook PCs for less than 100,000 yen in the midst of soaring prices.

Additionally, this PC has features that make it easy for users who are hesitant about whether it’s portable or stationary to troubleshoot, so it’s a notebook PC that people who are considering a PC on a low budget should check out.

The narrow color gamut and continuous battery runtime, which are cited as points of concern, are by no means disadvantages depending on the job and usage, so the fault can be avoided if only the keyboard layout is considered.

Prices and specifications are subject to change, so be sure to check the official website.
