EUROPEAN BUYERS BEWARE: This Laptop looks great! I've looked at this device for a long time and had it in my cart a few times, but only being able to get it with ANSI layout is a dealbreaker for me in europe (Swiss *ISO* layout is what i use). HP just prints different keycap fonts but not having our european keys is an absolute no-go. And they even tell you in a support chat and the product description that it is a Swiss/German/European layout but it's not. My mother bought an envy 15 x360 and it's great at everything except the ANSI layout. We returned it after finding out.

[@TheMrawesomest]

Compared to the M1 Apple laptops, all these ultra thin Intel offerings seem too overpriced.

[@thegreatbeavers]

It's the business marketing that's having these laptops at like $1k. Hence even tho people may not like the " gaming " in many pc devices, finding a " gaming " laptop would give something better than the usual, " I'm here to buy a laptop to work in an office like a slave. " shtick. Just finding a $300 laptop with Ryzen in it be better than this monstrousity of a product. Intel been playing the rip off game as much as Apple has. Even Apple knows Intel was ripping them off, hence why Apple made their own in-house CPUs to cut costs on their end. Now is the time Intel really needs to step it up. Only thing keeping them alive now is business side of things but once they look at they need more for 3D rendering and anything involving something like Virtual Reality, they gonna drop Intel like a rock.Yeah maybe someone would say, " you need a GPU in there for that. " but business wants to be efficient. So AMD with The Ryzen will likely get the business deal if Intel fails to improve.

[@Adam_Lynn]

I've been really happy with the X360 envy 15" i bought a couple of years ago apart from a couple of major design flaws, in fact i'm typing this on it now. 1. The screen hinges have never been level and so it closes slightly off square. 2. You need to remove the rubber strips off the bottom to access the internals of the laptop. The first issue was a known fault by HP and it seems they fixed it quite quickly in later models the second issue is inexcusable and they are still doing it. I'm sure HP will argue it is done for aesthetic reasons but they need to find another answer because the long rubber feet are so grippy they will literally start to fall off the laptop after a few months if you place it on a hard surface and if you ever open the laptop to upgrade storage/ram or anything else the feet will never go back on properly.

The brightness of 3K-2K OLED is amazing when I put it side by side with the cheap one.

[@opiniondiscarded6650]

So sick of DRAM prices. I was hoping that 64GB or greater capacities in laptops would be cheap and ubiquitous by now

[@kaldogorath]

DRAM prices have dropped significantly. You're sick of something because your own expectations are really high.

4:53 also just from experience with other spectre's the oled will have burn in eventually and also the heat the gpu will put out trying to drive it will burn into your lap or chest depending on how you use it.

I have the last generation OLED x360 and its so damn beautiful. I never use the battery so its worth it.

Yes I have the 2018 version of this machine, It’s only an 8th core i7 with 16Gb memory, 1tb SSD a RTX 1060 Ti graphics card but still worked brilliantly and like it’s just out if the box after all this time

HP move to their new "all in keyboard" or whatever they call it is really dumb. The power key was in a perfect spot before (one of the back corners, the one that is now empty), now is not accessible in the tablet position and they removed one of the CTRL keys to integrate the fingerprint reader (previous position up in the palm rest was just fine).

It also has 2-3x faster integrated graphics, greater privacy and security, and exclusive professional apps, which are a major consideration in the business world.

[@RK-um9tu]

Not if you want touch screen, pen support, microSD slot, HDMI port, 2-in- design, 180-degree screen, upgradability, gaming capabilities, face recognition, 4k resolution, good keyboard, no overheating, no thermal throttling, no malware attacks. There is a reason Apple enjoys 7-8% laptop market share...lol

[@gtaseed]

It's nice to see them returning to the old 2018 proportions of the laptop just with a taller screen instead of the huge bezels. I just wish they would return to the old sure view privacy screen technology cause that had 120hz screens with pretty decent pixel response times. Typing this from my 2018 model. Streaming games or even other performance hungry apps on this beauty at 120 fps from my gaming pc while i'm on the go is just breathtaking when you think it's all going through the internet with just a couple ms of latency. Not to mention how smooth everything feels while running programs locally. Yes. I've been spoiled by high refresh rates and I'm not going back, 60hz gives me headaches now.

Zen 3 + rdna2 laptops. Don't buy shit until these APUs are on the market!!!!!!

[@rightwingsafetysquad9872]

That won't be until September 2021 at the very earliest and probably not until November. There will probably be Zen 3 APUs in laptops around March/April, but those will be higher power H-series and still have Vega graphics, intended to be paired with a discrete GPU. The correct time to buy is when your current hardware can no longer do what you want it to. If that time is now, this laptop appears to be best in class.

[@Alexander-pk1tu]

I realy love that Alex gets scientific in his reviews and provides objective arguments :)

Dear HP. For the Spectre 2021 I want to see Zen 3, 32GB RAM and a Max Q 3060 or AMD equivalent.

[@mubarizsalim]

Death to HP!

[@nuadarstark]

Aside from the design that is gonna be problematic from some people, my only small gripe with this laptop is the damn size. I get the 3:2, that's awesome but due to this being "14 incher" (13.5 inch in reality), it's actually quite large. I mean just look at the 15 inch XPS next to it. But that's maybe cause I just got the XPS 9310 and the thing is tiiiiiny footprint-wise. Edit: Also, does this leaves us with Lenovo as the only of the big laptop manufacturers that haven't switched to non-16:9 on their premium ultraportable lines yet? Acer, Asus, Apple, Dell % HP are not all 16:10 or 3:2. Even smaller and more niche manufacturers now such as Razer have 16:10 laptops in their lineup.

[@matthewrreis]

Honestly, all these non-ARM based notebooks are just not exciting to me anymore. I want to see MS continue to develop ARM-based Surface products, as well as their own, non-Qualcomm sourced chip. Right now, the M1 MacBook Air, Pro and Mac mini are killing it. Obviously, I'm really excited for the widespread adoption of ARM!

[@daniels1982]

I have a macbookair M1 and I really hate to use Microsoft Office (excel and all family) in my mac. Its Sloooooowww to open. and sometimes figures, graphs and pictures dosnt show in excel. Also I hate to connect an external mouse to my macbook air. Also when I connect an external monitor its all too big compared to Windows.

[@DaHitman123]

Great review and video!

[@IncredibleJ1]

Honestly, it’s become hard for me to consider windows laptops ever since I saw the M1 macs. All of my programs are available on Mac and the battery and performance advantage just looks too significant for me to ignore.
