It's natural to want to categorise things, and laptops are no different. The category de jour is the slim and stylish Ultrabook, but there are plenty of others. Budget laptops, gaming laptops, ultraportables - but if you want something that sits in-between, the HP Pavilion DM4-2101 is a good bet. It's not crazy-powerful but it looks great, has excellent battery life and offers enough grunt to perform all your everyday tasks. Apart from the washing.
This isn't the first time we've seen this DM4 chassis. Back in 2010, we reviewed the DM4-1050ea, and it quickly become one of our favourites of the year. If anything, the design has improved. The "funky" lines across the chassis have been ditched, leaving the DM4-2101 with a commendably tasteful dark brown brushed metal finish. The only flashy element is the light-up HP logo in the top right of the laptop's lid, and this remains a classy touch.
