HP also added in a nice touch: A dimple on the upper-left corner of the pad toggles gestures on and off with a double tap. We were even able to configure three-finger tap to launch the browser. Better still, the pad handles a variety of multitouch gestures with great aplomb, as everything from pinch-to-zoom to three-finger swipe worked smoothly, though more advanced gestures had to be enabled in the touchpad software. The textured surface of the Pavilion g4's 3.3 x 1.7-inch touchpad provided us with enough satisfying friction to move the cursor accurately. HP reversed the primary functions of the function row so that one key press gives you quick access to the laptop's volume, brightness, and multimedia controls (rewind, play/pause, forward). There was plenty of satisfying tactile feedback and very little flex, and all the keys were within easy reach of our fingers. The keyboard sits in a recessed well on the deck of the laptop, and typing on it was a largely pleasant experience. The Pavilion g4's keyboard isn't quite island-style, but each of the flat, black keys has a raised squarish top, and the layout is evenly spaced.

However, when did a lot of work on it-specifically, browsing the web, running a full antivirus scan and streaming a video on Netflix at the same time-the laptop's fan began to whir audibly. We generally consider temperatures less than 95 degrees to be comfortable, so we were pleased to discover that the Pavilion g4 stayed well within this range. After we ran our heat test (which involves streaming a full-screen Hulu video for 15 minutes), the touchpad measured only 78 degrees Fahrenheit, the keyboard 84 degrees, and the middle bottom only 90 degrees.

The Pavilion g4 is one cool laptop, and it remained so throughout our testing. (For comparison's sake, the 14-inch Lenovo IdeaPad V470-measuring 13.4 x 9.2 x 1.2 inches-has exactly the same weight.) This laptop is definitely convenient for travel we slipped the Pavilion g4 in our bag, took it out on a subway commute, and weren't bothered in the least by its weight. Weighing in at 4.6 pounds and measuring 13.4 x 9.1 x 1.2-1.4 inches, the Pavilion g4 has just about the right heft for a machine of this size.
