HP Mini 5101 Pro Reviews

PC Advisor‘s review Edit

Until UK pricing is known, it's difficult to offer a definitive verdict on the HP Mini 5101, but it's fair to say that HP has succeeded in delivering a smarter netbook.

PC Magazine‘s review Edit

The HP Mini 5101 is much improved version over HP's previous netbooks. The new netbook's sleek metallic frame, a near-full size keyboard, and properly positioned mouse buttons are huge steps forward, but you'll have to wait a while before opting for the additional features.

TechRadar UK‘s review Edit

The HP Mini 5101 is a good choice for business users, with top-quality connectivity letting you keep in touch with the office when out and about. It's also comfortable, with an excellent keyboard but other models in the range are more appealing, and the price tag will be out of reach of many users.

Liliputing‘s review Edit

Simply put, the HP Mini 5101 is one of the best netbooks I’ve used in nearly 2 years of covering mini-laptops. There are faster machines out there, but none with a 10 inch display and Intel Atom processor. And you could create your own PC with a speedier storage system buy replacing your netbook hard drive with a solid state disk. But that takes more money and technical know-how than purchasing an HP Mini 5101 with a 7200rpm hard drive for $400 to $425.

Pocket-lint‘s review Edit

First off, the HP Mini 5101 is expensive - very expensive in the specification we tested. While the impressive build quality and conservative design will help it to appeal more to corporate buyers, there's no getting away from the fact that it's pricier than some of the CULV laptops that are currently appearing on the market - with Acer's excellent Aspire 1810T a prime example. Offering similar portability, a better battery life and much better performance, it's difficult to understand why you'd pick the HP over it. Although this is a nice little product, it simply doesn't do enough to justify the price

CNET Reviews‘s review Edit

HP's biz-minded Mini 5101 is a successor to the Mini 2140 (one of our all-time favorite Netbooks). It looks and feels great, but for a premium-price Netbook, we expect to get more features, not fewer.

Notebookcheck‘s review Edit

Even if it's not actually obvious in the mini-notebook's name, HP has put the Mini 5101 among the models their SMB range. Be that as it may, it wouldn't really be distinguished from other current consumer netbooks by its specifications, if it wasn't for one enticing detail: A 10.1 inch LED HD display with a resolution of 1366x766 pixels and that in a matt edition. Interested?

computershopper‘s review Edit

The HP Mini 5101 delivers long battery life and slightly improved performance, which puts it on the top of the netbook heap.
