Beautiful review and a really nice looking laptop! A+ as usual

Thanks a ton!

Best review after millions of tries

Thank you!

[@RichardMChamp]

U made my choice...Nice review

Best review I see ever

Fantastic review. Looks great

Thank you!

How about if I use Coding or Programming ?!

[@munashecraig6942]

Is it cool to buy it when you are a gamer who plays call of duty and other heavy games

[@amalHope3]

Thank you for the great review. I ordered this model yesterday online I hope to get it in 3 days. I like the 3 x2 resolution. I had to return the Eny model because I did not like 1920 x1080. The downside is the battery I wish it was better

[@ixT0PSH0TZxi]

Same!! What a giant disappointment that truly was. Now I have my eyes on this one, what’s your experience so far with the 3x2 resolution?

[@sajidahsyahiraa666]

PrIce?

[@hakanguzel4524]

I want another video. You are going in the right direction;)

[@dad.0]

More to come!

[@supermakineler995]

Awesome video! please make more

[@IREFUSE9]

We bought one that arrived with a HW issue diagnosed by online HPa support. Returned for repair on new laptop, HP did nothing more than reinstall all SW. returned to us with same HW failure. Sent item back, replaced with a new laptop that had serious cosmetic damage and hinge damage, neither occurring during shipping. Returned and now replaced by the 3rd new laptop. 3rd Spectre still had one hinge that is not quite right but serviceable. After many hours on the phone with being passed from dept to dept trying to resolve the issue I can only say I would not purchase another HP laptop after my experience. 🤔

[@dad.0]

Sorry to hear that

[@soubhikmukherjee6871]

The aspect ratio is really exciting. But why manufacturers aren't giving us 1080p Webcam?

[@dad.0]

I'm honestly not sure... may be a way to keep cost down or there may be an issue with fitting a 1080p webcam in that thin of space.

[@SweBeach2023]

I guess those with a need for a really high quality webcam easily can buy an external.

[@dave5517]

Definitely the review I was looking for before pulling the trigger ! Well done Sir.

[@kenn6592]

Love the review, great insights. Has pushed me across the line to order mine tomorrow. I will be using for RAW photo (but not video) editing with Lightroom. Any thoughts on if I will need a separate monitor? (They don’t seem to match the 3:2 format though)If so, ideas for one. I don’t do gaming either btw.

[@dad.0]

I personally love Dell monitors like this one www.dell.com/en-us/shop/accessories/apd/210-arcv?AID=100048247&cjevent=f338bbcffbd911eb801b017d0a82b832&cjdata=MXxOfDB8WXww&gacd=9694607-23736398-5750457-266319267-127795103&dgc=af&VEN1=12839518-100048247-UUwpUdUnU54978YYwYg-Future%20Publishing%20Limited&dclid=CN_Q8P_yrPICFU6SwAod2LkE2A&nclid=bDQpvyPwXaX24wvmZ6iaHYuixiR4hckj5of3-Hy7i0q3_Kd-yh4qobvtlt_gkEy1

Excellent rendering.

Thanks

[@midnght1247]

Yeah. In my opinion, everybody made a video about it already but it’s the best 🙂

[@linus430]

I saw another review complaining the fans were loud when watching videos and that the speaker sound was low. Was this something you experienced?

[@dad.0]

Not loud but somewhat noticeable

[@gultigin]

Thanks a lot!

[@dad.0]

You're welcome!

[@warriorpubg4583]

Really need to hear some good like this in these times

[@henriquesoares1114]

I'm a little bit late, but thank you very much for you review! I was having a hard time choosing between the 1920x1200 or the 3000x2000 and with you input about battery life I will be going for the 1920x1200 for the extended battery life, since I will mostly use it in College.

[@doublej5045]

Can you do a review on the latest HP Envy (13 inch and 14 inch)?

[@dad.0]

I’ll put out on the list

[@tur80t0ny]

Good review, with the 3000x2000 display what is the display scaling set to? 175% or more. Is 100% readable, or is it way too small?

[@dad.0]

Thanks! I don’t mind 100%. But it largely depends on your eyes.

[@brandoneleven]

Its set to around 250%. Thats the "recommended" display.

[@tur80t0ny]

Its a joke that amount of zoom because you end up with a resolution of something like 1368x900.

[@brandoneleven]

@@tur80t0ny Actually, it looks very good. This guy uses 100 haha. He probably gets some mad eye strain!

[@tur80t0ny]

@@brandoneleven a mate has the older x360 (6th gen intel) with IIRC ‎2560 x 1440 and thats set to 175%, its unusable for us oldies at 100%.

[@charitymusvota8103]

I really want that computer

[@glomslevikarical]

Have you been able to replace the SSD?

[@rubylatha80]

1st of all I would appreciate your detailed information …. Its very helpful… May I plz know about HDMI port … How do i connect it? I have a separate HDMI connector … All I want to know is … in which slot should I connect … ? And another question is as u said it has wifi 6 … I have a 4G router … will it connect to specter and will it connect in India … ?

[@aw_hakimi]

Sadly they removed the HDMI port in the new version and added a usb-c port. You can actually buy a hdmi to usb-c cable to connect it

[@msp5138]

In future, could you please mention: 1. Which power mode you were using. HP Spectres' have four different power modes that greatly impact battery life. The power modes are not the settings that appear on the task bar's battery icon; 2. If battery saver was on/off; 3. What level of screen brightness you were using. Going down in brightness improves battery life at a marginally decreasing rate (think child's slide in a playground); 4. Whether or not apps were running in the background. If yes, how many and watch ones; 5. What chip your Spectre has (U-series is for efficiency, H-series is for performance, G-series is in the middle). At 50% brightness with no apps open in the background, power saver on, and power mode on balanced, I get between 12-13 hours of continuous KZbin viewing on my 15-inch HP Spectre x360 (11th gen G-series chipset). Without this degree of specificity, reporting a laptop's battery life is at best not very useful and at worse extremely misleading. Keep up the good work...

[@TigerByteID]

I want this model. I hope it still in stock later went I got the chance to buy it.

Is this 13 generation??

[@nemouchikhalil8815]

Hello i am hesitating between this hp spectre or the asus zenbook s with the same specs. Which one should I choose ?

[@abuzariqbaI]

Yeah same I was thinking of either getting the duo or the spectre. Leaning towards the duo more because of the second screen though.

[@Harvz78]

I agree with everything except the volume. The max volume is as loud as my phone.

Is there an owner's manual for the hp specter 13.5" The keyboard seems similar to the 14"
