HP has unveiled a redesigned portfolio of HP Envy, HP Pavilion and HP Mini notebooks that the firm says will offer improved performance and enhanced user experiences.

The portfolio includes the HP Envy14, which features an HP Radiance display that offers picture quality “up to 59% brighter” than any notebook with a standard display. The HP Envy17 comes equipped with Intel’s i7 Quad Core processor and up to 500GB of storage. HP Pavilion dv6 supports the latest Quad Core processors and is the first HP Pavilion notebook to offer an optional touch screen.

Louise Reid, Market Development Manager, Consumer Notebooks, HP Personal Systems Group, New Zealand, explained, “HP has access to the world’s best designers and engineers, and we utilise their unique talents to create notebooks that integrate the latest in technology, advanced materials and intuitive experiences to fit seamlessly into the lives of consumers.

The HP Envy14 is expected to be available in New Zealand in July 2010 with a starting price of NZ$3,499 while the HP Mini 210 is expected to be available here this month for NZ$699. The Envy17 is currently available for NZ$3,999.
