"Awesome!!!" by Dman714 on December 3, 2009 Pros: Its fast! Amazing Intel Core i7 processor. Great graphics card. Crisp 1920x1080 resolution. Cons: Battery life, no internal optical drive. Summary: I'm an architecture student that commutes between house and school. I needed something a bit high end that could take on any task I throw at it. I've had this laptop for about a little over a month and so far I'm very impressed with how well it can respond. I run software such as Revit Architecture and AutoCADD and rendering on this is amazing. Aside from any simple or complicated school work I do on it, this laptop can run games beautifully. I've ran COD Modern Warfare 2 and Left 4 Dead 2 on this laptop and they run very smooth. I was left a bit disappointed because it uses an external optical drive. I honestly don't use one much, even on my desktop, but is always nice to have one handy. Battery life on this laptop is also disappointing. The 6 cell battery will only give a little over 1 hour and the 9 cell slice battery will add about another 2 or so hours all on high settings. Overall its an entertaining power house that will deliver most high end tasks. I absolutely love it. "Best Resolutions laptop in the market yet, beat Mac!" by n3og3o on November 30, 2009 Pros: Amazing resolutions! Envy 13 --> got 1600x900 resolutions (where Mac MBP 13" only at (1280x800) Envy 15' --> got 1920x1080 resolution (where on Mac MBP 15" only at (1440x900) but Mac MBP 17" only had (1920x1200) Cons: Its Expensive! okay design. Summary: I got both envy 13" & 15". Honestly, the design is okay, i still like my older MBP (MacBook Pro) with alunimum keyboard. However, the first thing that made me notice something different about this laptop is detail on the screens. I was captivated by its resolutions!! Its amazingly crispy clear! Imagine MBP 17" its resolution put into 15". it would be extreme clear & detail. I'm a graphic designer, so i'm picky on this particular detail (^_^) I dont have to say that much, go and look for yourself on the store. Look at its resolutions, it will blow you away. had me at 15" with (1920x1080). Period! Hope this will help other make decision (^_^)
