    Hi All


    Ok no dilemas.
    Just wanting to know which of these 2 laptops would you choose and why?
    i think they seem pretty good value for money at the moment.
    HP Pavilion dv8-1110ea and HP Pavilion dv7-4180ea

    failing that can you suggest a better one for £800 which is my budget.
    Thanks

    Better screen on the DV8-1110, but much better graphics card on the DV7-4180. 1920x1080 for a laptop, as nice as it is, is a little unnecessary IMO, and the GT230M in the other laptop will probably be quite unreliable. Battery life will of course be much better on the DV7-4180.
