HP Spectre x360 Review

Lisa Gade reviews the HP Spectre x360 Windows 8.1 convertible 2-in-1 13.3” Ultrabook with a 360 degree hinge. The Spectre x360 starts at $899 and it features a CNC machined aluminum unibody design, backlit keyboard, oversized trackpad and a 1080p IPS display with bonded glass (2560 x 1440 is also available). It weighs 3.2 lbs. and is slim and very attractive looking. It’s available with Intel Broadwell 5th generation Core i5 and Core i7 CPUs and most configurations (in the US) have 8 gigs of RAM. The laptop has an SSD drive, dual band Intel 7265 WiFi 802.11ac, Bluetooth and stereo speakers with DTS audio.
The Spectre x360 supports the HP Active Pen (Synaptics technology), though you'll have to buy the pen separately. We look at the Core i7 model with the 1080p IPS touch screen, 8 gigs of RAM and a 256 gig SSD that lists for $1,149.

Thank you very much for doing this review! I was just looking into this ultrabook and your reviews are always the first I go to. You definitely have the most complete and unbiased reviews on KZbin!

[@riaerickson5052]

thank you so much for all these reviews! I'm a fan of all your tech reviews. it makes my buying new laptop once every year or two years easier.

[@ACorganicks]

NICE! I ordered one earlier today... Naturally, Google and friends knew that so this video came up in my side bar. Glad it got such a great review, even more excited for it to show up.. Thanks!!!

[@AndyTurfer]

Lisa, you're the best! Yet another fantastic in-depth review of a laptop I've been curious about. After watching this review, I've decided to buy one (I've bought quite a few things now based on your reviews - you never disappoint).

[@georgek2031]

Another great review -- thanks! Your reviews are always the most thorough and informative -- keep up the great work!

[@mobiletechreview]

George Kamikubo Thanks :)

[@georgek2031]

MobileTechReview No, thank you! I didn't tell you why I watched your review in the first place. I've been shopping for an ultrabook for my wife, and had read some good things about the HP Spectre. I found your review, saw it, and later showed it to the wife, too. In the end, it is what helped us to settle on this model. I use an HP Folio, but you helped convince me that the Spectre is so much better. We'll be buying one very soon. Again, thanks for helping us make this decision!

[@tyler_7977]

Thanks for the video Lisa, you helped me decide on the sprectre!

[@TheQuikMix]

Sweet! I was waiting for this review. Nice work as always. Hopefully it makes its way into some of your shootouts.

[@zenku41]

Your reviews are on point! Thank you very much for the video :)

[@williamdobson8451]

Thank you for another excellent review! I bought this last weekend and I love it! I play WOW on it without any lag. I think that anyone can tell that HP took their time to get the Sceptre x360 just right! I also think it is one of the first laptops that I have had that the power cord was so long. Thanks Lisa! You never disappoint with your reviews! I always watch your reviews!

[@juandanielmorenocasillas8136]

YEEEEEEES! I was waiting for this video and its funny how fast i clicked when i saw the preview.

[@sennabullet]

Lisa...fantastic review. Not only these, but seemingly every single one that you do (I have been binging on a series of them after discovering the 1st). A really nice blend of technicals, anecdotes and real work testing. Based on this review, I am going fwd with the HP purchase...and looking to buy the Dell pen.

[@gama123wibawa]

Yay finally!! I've been waiting for your review for this one. Dell xps 13 and hp spectre x360 smackdown!!!

[@jacekranau3432]

This is just great. Thank you so much for being the first and still the only good review of this laptop. I bought this laptop and have had it for 3 days now and love it. I also bought the dell active pen and it has worked great so far. I would highly recommend this. Thanks so much for being an honest reviewer who I can always count on.

[@ydwivedi]

excellent review...thanks!

[@kssd71]

Great review! Thank u

[@dochood1966]

I just bought one of these, refurbished, as a supplemental BYOD machine. I really like the layout and style, but it got very over-heated when I had it on my lap on a leather binder trying to BitLocker encrypt the drive! Most of the venting is out of the bottom, and the binder wasn't rigid enough to keep the air flowing. I tried a piece of rugged cardboard, but that didn't work, either. Finally, I put it on an aluminum laptop stand with lots of venting underneath it, and it was able to complete the encryption process. I would gripe if I had paid the original $1,399 for the Core i7-5600U, 8 GB, 512GB SSD, but I got it at MicroCenter for $550 in August 2018. I will be doing mostly Office, slide presentations, video watching, and some light coding or security assessment work on this. I have a gaming beast that weighs as much as a small baby, and it is a pain to try to carry through airports and use on a plane. I'm hoping this will fill the bill for Office work on Windows.

[@mat3322]

Great review! :)

[@Kustav]

This is perhaps the best review of anything I've ever seen. Now I'm seriously considering getting one, lol.

[@Dolphinsz]

Stunning! I'm so happy with how the market is going! I'm a mobile gamer! But But I love to have these ultra book tablet pc to run around with! Can you imagine what they will come up with 3 years down the road!!

[@Rez-N-8]

Lisa, great review as always. I have both the i7 HD and QHD model and can confirm that the HP Active Pen does work with both models. Not as good as the NTrig or Wacom but not bad for an ultrabook.

[@mobiletechreview]

Holy Guacamole! I feel terrible that I missed that, but HP told me it had no active pen support (that teaches me to not test it regardless). So thanks for nudging me in the right direction. I just whipped out my HP Active Pen and it works like a champ, making this an even more versatile machine. I'll do a separate video on the pen.

[@Rez-N-8]

MobileTechReview Great - anxious to see what you think of the pen. I just bought the new MacBook Pro 13 i7 500GB 16GB and have both of the HP Spectre x360 HD and QHD. Trying to decide which one to keep! Leaning towards the MBP for all of the reasons you referenced in your latest review and it's a beast. Also wondering how important a touch display will be once Windows 10 is released. Would love to get your POV on that.

[@mobiletechreview]

***** Windows 10 makes life without a touch screen more tolerable, but it's still more enjoyable with a touch screen, so I don't see touch going away. But if you're running Mac OS X, there's no touch support, so it's not terribly important unless you're running Windows 8 or 10 with some frequency on the MacBook Pro.

[@HumayounAhmed]

MobileTechReview ***** You guys are awesome! I'm really looking forward to the video about the pen! I've seen on a video on KZbin (I forget which one) but the user stated that you have to push a little harder than usual to get the HP Active Pen to work. Would be a great feature to add on the next video!

[@Sumaa743]

***** hi ... since you have the QHD model , hows the scaling with the QHD display ???

[@randyarcher9345]

Great review. I was all set to buy this then they came out with a new 4K 15.6" model! Are you likely to review that one anytime soon? I'd love to hear your take on it before jumping in!

[@mrmicroburst]

Hello, Lisa! Thank you as always for your terrific review! After listening to some of your other reviews and reading a variety of reviews of the Spectre x360, I decided to purchase it. Your review definitely reinforces my decision. I did have two admittedly very minor quibbles with my system, and I wondered if you had experienced anything similar. I noticed that on the trackpad for my system, which is excellent overall, there is a very slight noise while tapping-not clicking, but just tapping. I realize this may be a feature rather than a bug, so I'm curious if your experience was the same. Second, I noticed that in a very quiet room, with the system's fan not running, and with the computer doing low- to moderate-intensity tasks, there was a slight coil noise. (Commencing a more CPU-intense task, even just rapid webpage scrolling, made the noise disappear.) With no offense to anybody's age or hearing abilities, this may simply be a perfect storm my own auditory acuity, the ability of young ears to hear high frequencies, and my peculiar sense of perfectionism. I know that this was an issue on previous versions of the Dell XPS 13, but I also realize that coil noise tends to diminish over time, and that hearing it at all indicates just how quiet the remainder of the system components are. If these things are typical of the system or of ultrabooks in general, then I'll be more than happy to get over these nitpicky details for such an incredible system. On the other hand, if they are unique to my particular unit, I'd want to try out a different one before that magical return period expires. Thanks again, and keep up the great work! MobileTechReview

[@SimplyBergman]

I would like to know that, too

[@mobiletechreview]

I have heard, just a few times, when it's plugged into power a sort of tick-tick-tick sound that's sort of like coil whine but different and shorter in duration. I have no idea what it is, but I believe it's something all x360s do. Trackpads do tend to make a little noise when you tap since the glass surface moves a little when you tap.

[@morrisnell]

Great review.

[@jorgepau24]

Hi Lisa, great review, my only concern is about the hinge, do you think they'll get tired with time or use? you said that the Spectre is your daily laptop have you notice any change on that matter? , thanks...

[@AppleTech2011]

great review Lisa...I just bought this same model today and I am pleased with the laptop. I was going to get the XPS13 but what with this one based on your review.

[@thegeniusmazhar101]

Got my eye on the $1000 model. The clear advantage I see this having over the XPS 13 is the HDMI port. It also has great battery life.

[@glennlewis9864]

mine is still working great 6 years later

[@SaraH-ul6fr]

Great Review! I would love to see this compared to the lenovo yoga series!

[@RockZeWorld]

I love your reviews. This will definitely be my next laptop. My current HP is working absolutely great after 4 years so I'll probably wait until the price goes down a bit (still a great deal though). My only concern is that right now I remove my battery to preserve it when I'm playing some games and stuck at my desk for hours. I know you can't remove it (well you can but not really for my purposes) but I was wondering if it had the technology (as I've heard some do) to switch to just AC power when the battery charges. I'm not sure if you have info on this.

[@mhajas725]

I like that laptop, thanks for the review ☺

[@Mojo_Gojo_Casa_Domain]

I'm cheap, so I bought the Envy...now I'm kinda envious.

[@JTH24]

Excellent review, as always. Is there a possibility HP may bring out a 15.6" version of the x360?

[@thewizardsacademy292]

HI lisa. thanks for the great review. can I confirgure/upgrade the 4gb ram to 8gb or 16gb ram? thanks again.

[@MrDonkey419]

Firstly, Lisa fantastic review, you're awesome!!! Secondly...Guys, deciding between this, the Dell xps and the new MacBook Pro retina. What's your thoughts on how each of these will run games at medium settings? It's just because I fancy using my laptop primarily for browsing/university work and then just a bit of casual gaming on the side (Sims, Left for dead etc)..

[@soulhunt5]

Will you be reviewing the newest version of this? Specifically the 15in version.

[@habibchidiac4042]

Dear lisa i wanna thank you for the great reviews u always give us. they are pro and clear. i need ur opinion bteween the asus zenbook and the hp spectre x360 which one do u recommend just to mention i am picky person about details i want something good with same options of the hp but am concerned of the heating and fan noise i had bad experiences in the past with the hp. tx u MobileTechReview

[@chuckly2]

Nice review Lisa, can we get a smack down between this and the XPS 13?

[@AlexanderProcter]

Get well soon!

[@mobiletechreview]

Thanks, the cold/flu/evil germ is almost gone (took a week!).

[@infiniteascalon]

Hi, are there any reviews on the HP envy 13(2015)? Been trying to find on the net but not as extensive as that of the Dell XPS13. Btw, great review like always

[@808GT]

Very nice laptop. Just proves that you can put all ports and then some into a super slim case.

[@prabha23utube]

I have been waiting for this review for so long..and you have done a wonderful review as you always do.Anyway I was wondering how good the heat management in this machine is and the fan noise.I heard in some stress test video the machine was relatively warmer than xps 13.is it uncomfortably hot?or the heat is just within the normal range?

[@mobiletechreview]

Heat is in the normal range, no hotter or noisier than the XPS 13 (neither is hot or loud).

[@prabha23utube]

MobileTechReview Thank you.I am definitely buying this.thank you so much once again.

[@Firmbiz101]

Hey Lisa you are amazing - I ask you deliver totally awesome - I just have to hear you review before I buy mobile tech...

[@callumoneill1225]

Went into Best Buy to pick up a Lenovo yoga pro 2 or 3 (hadn't decided) started playing around with them and decided to go for the yoga. Then this caught my eye, i hadn't even realized that it was a HP. Started playing around with it, noticed the very nice display and the very solid build. The checked the inputs, the full size hdmi really sold me (but was not the only factor). I've had it for 3 days and absolutely love it.

[@thebenwilson1996]

Excellent review as always, one question though, how is the webcam for general Skype use. Also, is the mini display port 1.2 or just 1?

[@mobiletechreview]

HP's webcams are generally pretty decent, as is this one. It's DisplayPort 1.2.

[@thebenwilson1996]

MobileTechReview Ok, thank you for replying so quick.

[@neevparikh6453]

Very good review, Lisa. HP and dell have indeed improved their game.

[@mattrmac84]

Hey Lisa, First of all you're awesome. Secondly I really need your help. I am so torn between a yoga 3 pro and the hp specter x360. I just want something for when I am on the road for work or just laying on the couch. Browsing, streaming, email, and some super light gaming. When I say super light I mean the 7 or 8 times a year I am on the road maybe playing League of Legends on very low res, or Starcraft 2, again on very low res. Most of the time I will be on the couch with it. I have spent a day comparing, etc. Which did you find felt better in tablet mode? My main thing is I want a convertible (had a macbook air with 8.1 on it) but really wanted the touch. Thanks so much!

[@MrDefeater94]

Great review! I wanna buy a second laptop (home usage) mainly Web browsing/Streaming HD video/Storing music and videos on the laptop. Do you think this is a good option? I don't really like tablets and would prefer a device with an attached keyboard.

[@santycastu3261]

I am deciding between dell xps 13 and a macbook pro, but this is another competitor....I really don' t know wich one to buy. As always perfect review Lisa, thank you very very much from Argentina. I am a huge fan of you and your videos.

[@SilkyNoah]

I'm in the same boat, there are too many great laptops!

[@AndRootPro]

I bought an xps 13 2014 model, returned within a week, needed a little more power in the GPU dep. So I got the xps15 with the gtx750m in it, it was fast and all, but bringing it to and from school was ridiculous, way too big! Then... I got a mid-2014 retina MacBook pro 13 inch. It was in between. The xps 13 and 15 in terms of power, but the GPU was much better than the xps 13's. I have never looked back since getting the Mac. Since I bought my Mac on Feb 12 this year, apple let me return it and get the 2015 model 13 inch retina MacBook pro for free! You definitely gain a lot in the customer service department compared to dell(dells cs is a nightmare) and... While I didn't like Mac os at first, I grew to like it a lot, actually, I like it a lot more than windows, no constant updates, no driver issues, just a no issue experience, and the Mac speakers sound great, especially with the "boom 2" eq software on it. Trust me on this guys. The Mac is the best way to go. Oh... BTW when I got the xps 13 with touch and the i7, the battery life was around 7hrs, on the xps 15 I got around 6-7hrs, and on the Mac I constantly get 11-12hrs. So if you need battery, get a mac. And... Hold on, don't buy the xps 15, cannot recommend it whatsoever, the speakers are bad, really bad, and I had to get my first xps15 replaced because of dead and stuck pixels, and when I got my replacement... It had dust under the screen, so the build quality is not up to par, especially compared to the Mac or even the xps 13(from the same company, weird...) All in all. The Mac is a nor frill computer with more power than any windows ultrabook in its price range.. Look up benchmarks for the i7 5500u vs an i5 5287u, the i5 wins, thats the mid spec processor for the Mac... Happy shopping and good luck!

[@heikiu96z]

I am thinking about the same thing, this laptop is also perfect except the glossy display make me hesitated a little bit.

[@taimingkoh]

haha same i am considering between the Dell XPS 13 and this. If only the HP Spectre x360 had the 'Infinity Display'. But then again, I really cannot figure out which is better

[@kgbeezr75]

AndRootPro I completely agree with you on the Mac, i'm a relatively new user. But, i'm on my 3rd (and definitely not exchanging again) Pro 13 (Broadwell) and every one of the displays has had an annoyingly uneven color cast. The first two had it along the bottom half, and the present one has the very subtle yellowish band just to the right of center (only now it's vertical). If I calibrate the screen to be extremely cool, then this band turns to greenish instead of yellowish, but it always alters lighter shades rendered in this region and makes them darker and less contrasty than the rest of the screen. Can you objectively say yours has even color distribution? I'm just curious. I'm still within my 14 day period, but i'm debating going to Apple and asking for their opinion on screen replacement. I love the notebook otherwise, and like you i've been getting very long battery life. I previously had the mid-2014 Macbook Pro 13 and the screen was absolutely beautiful. I've really been trying to ignore the problem, but *every single time* I use it, my eye goes right to this part of the screen and I want to wipe it.

[@magnus1990]

Hi Lisa, thanks for the review, I'm just wondering about the sleeves with magnetic closure as this laptop arrives with one. It sticks to the laptop body even when the laptop is switched off. And when it's on the laptop goes on standby upon interaction with the magnetic closure. Wanted to know your thoughts on that. Is it normal and of any harm to the laptop itself. Thanks

[@natedagreat850]

I know you touch on this a little bit throughout the video comparing it to the Lenovo yogas, but specifically what do you think of this vs. the lenovo thinkpad yoga or even more specifically the new 2015 model with the 5th gen processor?

[@nourhanateout7187]

love this review i got mine at walmart for 788

[@ZorianDelaCosta]

Awesome review as usual... I just wanna know if x360 better than xps 13? I mean for $999 256 SSD, 8 Gigs of RAM n touchscreen is a dealbreaker for me.. But that magnificent bezzel less infinity display and insane formfactor of xps 13 is holding me back.. I hope that huge trackpad (x360) wouldn't pose problems in long run.. Would you be so kind and do a comparison video between these two...?

Thank you for this review it was a tough decision between the dell xps and the hp spectre but went for the spectre. Picked it up today. Great reviews for both. I learned alot

Do you know when you'll be able to get your hands on the new Spectre x360 15.6" with 4k panel? Of course, the new 13.3" with QHD OLED coming soon too!

[@MysteriousRJC]

You've done several reviews with the HP Spectre x360.... I'm interested in it but I've seen many hp support forum posts about screens cracking, displays going black, it failing to wake up, perceived heat issues, etc. Do you think it has build issues or are they isolated over-hyped issues? Have you guys tested it for any prolonged duration?

I bought an HP Pavilion x360 13 with the core i3 processor and I'm still not satisfied with an i3 for gaming and school purposes. So I sold my Pavilion x360 13 and ordered an HP Spectre x360. So excited to get it. Thanks for your review though :D

[@schuschu52]

Hey Lisa, I'm trying to decide between the $999 HP Spectre x360 and the ASUS Zenbook UX303ln for a college laptop with a little bit of gaming. I know the zenbook is obviously the better choice for gaming but I'm turned off by the reports of broken hinges and horrible looking yellows. Which do you think would be the better choice?

[@au6ust504]

Hi Lisa, great review! Do you think that a 4GB RAM model would be sufficient for everyday use? Just web-browsing, the occasional video, word and excel processing and no gaming? I've found a good deal with a QHD screen, i5 processor and 256GB SSD, the only let-down is the 4GB RAM. I'm just divided about whether I should go for an 8GB RAM model or get the better deal.

[@WWeaselNL]

I would say it depends on how long you are going to use the laptop. The ram is soldered on so you can't upgrade to 8gb. For everyday use, 4gb is enough, but maybe not in 4 years or something.

[@ompaintballa314777]

I was wondering the same thing

[@TheKarolean]

au6ust Not really if you want to use chrome and other apps running in the background. Go for the 8GB as this already is a high end computer.

[@zenku41]

Hi there! I have a question and I was hoping you could help: So here in mexico city there's a back to school sale on laptops in one store and they have the spectre x360 for 1030 dollars (tecnology is a bit pricey here, with no discount it costs 1212) with 4 gigs of ram and 128 gigs of storage. Is that enough if I just want it for casual stuff and also using photoshop, autocad and video editing every once in a while? (like literally using it in rare ocassions) The other model with 8gigs ram and more storage is not available, I really like this laptop, is it still worth it with those specs?

[@ahjaeho]

Hello Lisa thank you for reviewing HP spcectre x360. Can you compare it with yoga 3 pro or yoga 3 14?

[@autozproductions7771]

Hey Lisa, I am debating on whether to get this or the Lenovo yoga pro with the i5 or get the Asus Zenbook UX305, Thanks

[@KungFuMojo]

Lisa, I noticed on HP's site that most of the models have "8gb onboard ram," but I noticed for the two 1080p models, it says "8 GB DDR3L SDRAM (1 x 8 GB)." Is this what I think it means? Which is ONBOARD equals soldered, while the 1080p models are sticks which can be removed, replaced, etc. It says 1x8gb, so I'm assuming, it may have a 2nd slot and can take 16gb total?

[@SimplyBergman]

Ι was intending to buy the XPS 13 but i think i will go for this one: all aluminium premium body (the soft paint interior of the XPS 13, as i saw on videos, can get extremely smudgy, as does the trackpad), more versatile (there are many times, watching movies for example, i would prefer the keyboard not to be there), touch option for the more energy-efficient FHD screen and all at a great price. Sure, the XPS 13 has those cool thin bezels but when their impressiveness fades out i think you can happily live without them.

How do you compare it to the Yoga 3 pro when it comes to specs and picture ect?How limited are you with the computers specs, i mean to ask if you throw away att possibilities of gaming when you chose a more flecible laptop like this one?

[@minim6981]

Your videos convinced me to buy this, and it's the best device I've ever owned. I actually have pretty slow wifi at my house, but this laptop makes it fast. On my old computer, I couldnt watch 1080p videos without it stopping or lagging, but now I can watch them just fine. The battery life is amazing. Even when I have it on full brightness, with backlit keyboard turned on, I get around 5 hours browsing and watching videos. My only gripe is the fact that the touchpad is like 75% left click, 25% right click. Why not 50/50??

[@minim6981]

Martian Luvr I found out how to adjust the right click in the synaptics settings. Now it's 50/50 and this laptop is absolutely perfect

[@moyoakinbola8758]

Martian Luvr How exactly did you adjust the right click?

I was thinking about getting this or the macbook air. I went with the macbook air, but the hp x360 still looks like nice laptop.

[@Awakendabeast13]

Love your reviews the x360 seems just awesome but then started wondering maybe the Apple® - MacBook Pro with Retina display - 13.3" Display - 8GB Memory - 128GB Flash Storage - Silver which is on sale at the same price is a better laptop? Please help or perhaps a smack down thank you

Good review Which program do you use to calibrate the panels?

[@mobiletechreview]

We use the Spyder 4 Pro, a piece of hardware (colorimeter) that plugs into a USB port. You place it on the screen, run the companion software and it determines color gamut, Delta E, brightness, contrast and other things and it can calibrate the display.

[@xYasago]

Thank you for the response.

[@haseebkanorkant7024]

this would be my first choice bcz it has a usb port and a 360 degree turn of the monitor which is pretty cool if we're going to it use as a tablet...oh and it's super thin and light weight which makes it even more cooler

[@jeffreysun3891]

I saw on multiple forums and posts that there was an annoying problem with the trackpad. Apparently the trackpad is too big for precise tap-to-click or right click registration. Is this fixed, or is it still a problem? Or does this depend on personal operational preferences?

[@mauricesearcy7789]

Wow Lisa I was giving this laptop for free from a moving job I did. it was in a ups like box guy said it was brand new, but laptop does not work won't even power up it's a brick too bad from your video review it seems like a good computer any way nice video

Any plan on reviewing samsung ativbook 9 12inch? Seems like a direct competitor for the new macbook.

[@gergelykecskes467]
