HP has never shied away from adding flair to its products. This is reflected in the 2133, which sports a beautiful brushed aluminum finish. The casing consists of a durable metallic lid, with a toughened plastic matte finish for the rest of the laptop, including the keyboard area, underside, and sides. The brushed aluminum finish imparts a classy look that will appeal to business users and casual users alike. Compared to other 8.9 inch laptops, the 2133 is portable enough, with dimensions of 255 x 165 x 27 mm and a weight of 1.27 kg.

Moving on to to usability, the keyboard is at best described as a work of art. While many manufacturers offer excellent keyboards and well-spaced keys, the HP 2133 takes it a step further. This can be attributed to the fact that HP has designed its keyboard to be used for long hours and hence special attention has been paid to it.

The keys have been treated to last longer, offer a matte non-textured finish that prevents sliding, has perfectly elevated keys, and offers very good feedback with no flex or extra springiness. The keyboard is similar to that of the Asus 1000h, in that it's 92 percent the size of a regular keyboard. All told, it makes working long hours a non-issue.

The touchpad, however, gets an F. It is eerily similar to the Acer Aspire One, in that it has a small touchpad area and two large mouse buttons. The touchpad is cramped and using it is difficult while travelling. You should consder investing in a small wireless notebook mouse to increase productivity.

The 8.9 inch LCD panel of the HP 2133 has a native resolution of 1280 x 768. This offers a good deal of screen space, more than comparable Netbooks, but loses points because it’s an 8.9-inch affair. The text looks squeezed at times and, despite the presence of Windows Vista with its beautifully designed UI, looks quite cramped. The LCD panel by itself is quite decent, with above average brightness and contrast levels and great viewing angles.

Connectivity-wise, the laptop offers just 2 USB slots, a VGA adapter, a multi-format card reader, an Expresscard slot, and Ethernet, along with a security lock aka Kensington slot.
