The fit and finish is plagued with irregularities which include poor assembly, bulges and indentations on the surface of the wrist area, poor battery seating and buckling of certain areas near the optical drive due to low thickness of plastics. The paint finish fails to hide the average quality of the parts used in the laptop. The material of construction is plastic and build quality is suspect. This might look good on a piece of furniture or a polished concert piano, but on an article for everyday use, it primarily means that ugly fingerprint smudges and dust are easy to collect on the surface. HP relies on extensive use of black piano lacquer. This is our first impression after unboxing the 17.3 inch notebook. Everything on HP's Pavilion g7-2051sg is glossy.
