HP Spectre X360 - It’s INCREDIBLE!

HP has worked out great at my job. However, we are using HP EliteBook. Their business line laptops are far better quality than consumer and prosumer laptops. HP EliteBook 840 G10 (Intel Core i7 1370P) and HP EliteBook 845 G10 (Ryzen 7 7840U CPU) are excellent business laptops.

[@MrHowlingblast]

I have the intel 1255u model, which is a bit older but has pretty much the same chassis. The downside of this model is that when the lid is closed the little standoffs the screen is resting on will scratch quite deep into the glass and the screen will manage to scratch the glass touch pad. Other downsides (for linux users): If the new model is similar to the older ones. This is not the easiest laptop to get everything working. Powerprofiles will not work, Battery health reports can be all over the place, no fan control, gyroscope could mess with wifi and bluetooth (meaning all wireless connections get disabled when the lid closes or the laptop is moved around), no s3 suspend to ram only s4 susped to disk works, and the camera will not work at all even in the future, very proprietary drivers. I still love the laptop, It just takes time to set it up for linux to work as best as possible.

[@bungtomo1322]

God, I have seen many reviewers who tested pen just by scribbling random shapes or writing fast. Then they label it as "good pen performance". Well, I would say with today's power and screen refresh rate, pen lag is no longer an issue in modern 2-in-1. However, the pen's true challenge is to draw straight diagonal line (you can use ruler) straightly. I have seen many 2-in-1, premium devices, struggle with diagonal-slow-line test. Many devices failed and produced jitter/wiggly lines. Please do such test before labelling a 2-in-1 pen performance good.

[@emikobong7022]

Yes absolutely! I’m an artist looking for a 2-in-1 laptop that’s more powerful than the surface pro (since I also like to game). It’s so annoying when I can’t find a good artist review.

[@marcusst8809]

Can you please check if you can disable the Fn+Shift combo as Fn-Lock in BIOS? This key combination they've chosen is an absolute nightmare for programmers...I do have that on my work Dragonfly but cannot access the BIOS as company blocks it.

[@procsorted]

@@marcusst8809 Happy to help. Yes there's a BIOS option 'launch hotkeys without fn keypress' which when disabled means the function keys default to normal behaviour, much to my relief! One thing that bothers me a little is the combination of OLED and touchscreen means there is quite a noticeable grain when viewing light colours due to the digitisation layer. Not the end of the world but ideally for my use case for the machine an IPS screen might have been better.

[@procsorted]

@@marcusst8809 one more niggle! The haptic touch pad is very sensitive. You can turn this down in settings but I'm still getting used to the behaviour. Pretty normal for the first few days with a new machine is that you spend X hundred and want everything to be perfect immediately!

[@deathblade287]

I have the older model (2019 or something like that) and have had constant heating issues since I bought it. Complained multiple times to HP during the first few months but they weren't able to fix the problem completely. I don't know whether this is a problem with my specific model or because they weren't able to implement proper cooling is such a thin chassis. Other than that it's been a great experience. Linux runs great on it too, in case somebody wanted to know.

My last Spectre was the late 2017 model. Loved that laptop and really glad to see they’ve improved the series quite significantly. Going to be really hard to pull me away from the M1 MacBook Air though, such a good machine and it’s aging so incredibly well. Would love that 120Hz OLED though.

[@Edgar876]

How are you doing friend?

[@markholle3450]

I have the 2023 X360 (non-OLED) model with 16GB/512 that I got at Best Buy for $999. It has been great. Standout features are the screen, keyboard, and battery life. The 2024 model checks most of the boxes for what I would want in an upgrade. Moving the screen size to 14 inches is a great move, which I deem the sweet spot. The 3:2 aspect ratio on the 2023 model is great for Excel but less so for KZbin. All things considered, I would rather have the 16:10 ratio on the 2024 model. Not only that, you now have the 120hz adaptive refresh rate. I use my Spectre on my lap a lot - Upward firing speakers are better. Arc graphics look to be a noticeable upgrade over IRIS. That being said, I will stick with my current Spectre. I love the bright screen and the blacks on the non-OLED model is unbelievably good. It's quiet and the touchpad/keyboard combo is excellent. Webcam is better than most and I have USB-A when I need it compared to my MBA. I don't do much to push the IRIS graphics so that isn't a limitation.

[@drewc518]

I bought the 16 inch spectre x360 2-in-1 about two years ago (without the OLED screen but with some other upgrades) for about $1800. I’ve been having issues with light leakage/burn in around the border of the screen. I decided to overlook this issue so I wouldn’t have to pay to fix it since the laptop is past the 1 year factory warranty. Now the hard drive is also defective. When I called Hp, they said it would cost about $400 to replace the SSD hard drive since it is out of warranty. I didn’t even bother to ask for an estimate to fix the screen because I was so disappointed. The computer is LESS THEN TWO YEARS OLD. Instead, I placed an order for a MacBook Air earlier today. I won’t make the mistake of buying an Hp product again.

[@chaoyizhang2360]

I'm pretty sure the issues are because of the touch screen layer. I've been on the hunt for a 14-inch 2.8K laptop for ages and tried a bunch. Those with Touch screens (no matter if it is IPS or OLED) tend to have these issues all the time. I pick up on stuff like that easily - something about being super sensitive, I guess. If you ditch the touch feature and go for a non-touch screen, it usually fixes the problem. Right now, I'm using the LG Gram Style 14'' - it's got a sweet matte 2.8K 90HZ OLED screen that's not touch, but yeah, there are a couple of things about it I'm not too keen on. If touch isn't a big deal for you, I'd say just grab a laptop with 2.8K Non-Touch display. There's a few out there.

[@mikaeldalc]

Sorry, but I could never spend over $1,200 for a laptop without a GPU.

whoever came up with the idea of that port placement should be fired

I would like to replace my Rog Ally with this Spectre, can I play any games as well on that laptop? Is it as powerful as the Rog ally, fps wise?

[@vanceyootoob5503]

I gotta say, the hype for Apple track pads is completely false. Probably the worst track pad I have ever used.

I don't get why so many laptops have only 500 nits peak brightness, even OLEDs, just why don't they have the same like phones up to 1000 or more.

[@someasianguy8493]

It only has HDR400 certification. So the HDR won't be good enough. At least HDR600 at a minimum is required for a good HDR experience. But of course the reviewer here doesn't point it out 😒

[@HDRPC]

​@@someasianguy8493it has great HDR experience

I just received a fully loaded Spectre 14 (March 8) but arrived DOA. Battery was completely dead and once it was charged, I got several blue screen errors and it restarted 5-6 times before it let me get to the main screen. I probably used it for 1 minute before it crashed and I'm now stuck with a blue screen menu and the restore option is not working at all. I'm curious if anyone has had any issues?

[@MatthewMoniz]

WOw that's some bad luck. Just send it back and ask for a new one.

[@antoniovalencia1362]

​@MatthewMoniz your review insights are spot on though, especially regarding the keyboard/touchpad. I called HP and they immediately offered to "have it repaired". A bit annoying to go through the process for a laptop that almost reaches $2k MSRP

My plan was to trade in my M2 Macbook Air towards this HP. The display beats the Air. The battery life and speed are a disappointment. Did web searches on both at the same time, did simple Excel tasks, switched from app to app on both and the Air always came out ahead. I was reading on the Kindle app and the battery kept going down. Left it sit and the battery went way down. The charger got really hot. I bought the 16GB, 1T SSD on sale at BB for $1100. Great deal but it is going back. Really was hoping to break away from Apple but the Macbook is just too good.

Comparison with the lenovo yoga 9i 2in1?

[@MatthewMoniz]

Will do! Once I get one in
