  • Ultra-durable, Excellent keyboard, Good looks, Long battery life
  • Poor screen, No discrete graphics, Spotty CPU performance, Expensive, No bundled touch software beyond Windows Touch Pack
  • This sleek Mini has a dual-core Atom processor, gorgeous aesthetics, and arguably the best netbook keyboard yet. But a poorly implemented touch screen, a high price, and the lack of discrete graphics hold it back. ...

  • Dualcore N550 improves system responsiveness, Higher resolution screen reduces need for sidescrolling, Good battery life,
  • Nonmultitouch touchpad, Touchscreen could cause problems with small buttons,
  • The HP Mini 5103 offers a lot of features we like; good looks, great build quality, nice screen, good battery life, and high performance. With a starting price of $399 this system isn't that much more expensive than other consumer netbooks, meaning all those cool features don't come at a huge premium. HP has a good thing going with the current Mini 5100-series netbook and they understand this sin

  • Overall, the HP Mini 5103 is an attractive and high performance netbook — which is to say, it’s still a pretty low performance laptop. With a dual core Atom N550 processor, the netbook is definitely faster than the average mini-laptop at some… maybe mo...

  • Metal casing, 1366x768 screen resolution, 7200rpm hard drive, 2GB DDR3 SDRAM, good performance, great battery life
  • Lot of preinstalled software, initial setup takes around 30min, touchpad can sometimes feel too sticky, rubber stops don't keep netbook from sliding on a desk
  • Despite not being very different to the HP Mini 5102, the HP Mini 5103 is still one of the best netbooks money can buy. if you don't mind forking over so much cash for a netbook, that is. It's solidly constructed, has 2GB of RAM and a fast 7200rpm hard...

  • Solid, stylish design, Plenty of configuration options, Comfortable keyboard, Newlyadded dualcore Atom N550 and HD screen options
  • Moderate battery life with fourcell battery, Small trackpad, Higherend configurations are expensive
  • The latest iteration of HP's business netbook adds some useful optional features including an HD 10in. screen and a dual-core Atom processor. However, it's looking dated next to faster 11.6in. ultraportables.…

  • Most users will be better served with less-expensive, consumer-oriented netbooks; however, the security and other corporate features make the HP Mini 5103 a no-brainer for IT departments - at least until they see the bill. Expand the screen to 11 or 1...
