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.

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.

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.

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.

***** 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.

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!

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!

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!

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.

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.

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

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.

I bought one of these a few weeks ago for college. It's a great small laptop that is super portable for school. I have a few complaints about it. 1. The trackpad without seperate left- click and right - click keys can be very frustrating. 2. The keyboard light key stays lit at all times and there is no way to disable it. When you watch Netflix videos in laptop mode this gets very old, very quickly. 3. This thing gets super HOT. I highly recommend making sure that the vents are uncovered at all times. I've had the system shut down completely from overheating.

I wish when people gives reviews on a laptop they would explain more about how it works and how to do things on it instead of spending so much time on telling about how it looks, how the edges are rounded and the finish etc etc etc.... I bought the hp spectra and my bad luck had to return it for it was a faulty one but I need to know how to use it better, need to know the do,s and don'ts, what certain settings mean and how to basically operated the laptop.

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.

I was looking to buy a Macbook Pro, but the HP x360's are making me think twice, I just love the design and the overall functionality it gives you... however I still thank MacBook's retina display is slightly better and has less glare... I'm going to wait till early next year, I want to see what Apple is going to do with their new retina macbook pro's(touch id?), and I'd like to see what other products or updates HP is going to do to their ultrabook line... The design of this x360 is truly beautiful and sophisticated, I love the look of the front and finished chrome look...

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??

My only disappointment is the keyboard - keys are completely flat just like my Gateway ID47U which I do not like. I prefer keys that are sculpted like the Thinkpads.

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.

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.

If anyone has interest in a new laptop like this.... I highly recommend this x360 Spectre. I'm a dude who wanted a top quality computer but discovered it isn't worth it. I debated Macs and PCs but this computer has satisfied me and has not failed to amaze me everyday I use it. This is a beautiful laptop and it it also feels better than my friends new Dell XPS 15. This computer weighs and feels just how it looks. It is definitely sturdy.

+Cloud Candy yeah I do. But I bought a bottom pad that lifts up the laptop to allow better heat exhaust. It does get hot... But it runs on a Solid State Drive. Which means that information is quantized onto a chip. Not through a regular laser disk drive that spins in your laptop. (Like a vinyl)

Lisa, I have a question about taking care of this PC's battery. But first, let me say--your reviews are great. Calm, cool, good tone, know your stuff. Thank you. I just recently purchased the spectre x360 configured with the following: i7 processor, regular FHD display--not the QHD, 8Gb RAM, 256GB SSD. My question is in relation to the ol' battery charging "danger" people warn about. This laptop has phenomenal battery life from what I can tell, and I want to make sure I can use it to its full potential with out unnecessarily shortening the battery's lifespan. Does this PC have the ability where if you leave it plugged in, even on full charge, that it will not "overflow it" and diminish the lifespan of the battery? I had friend who told me that Apple's iphone had that feature, I'm curious if the same is true for this new PC. I've upgraded from an HP Pavillion G6 laptop whose battery is absolute crap now...(bought it in 2011). I started out not leaving it plugged in when it was relatively still new, but that habit died after about 2 years. I'm just trying to prevent the same thing from happening to this gorgeous laptop. Thank you!

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...?

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.

Which is the best "Yoga" in your opinion? HP Spectre x360 vs. Inspiron 13 7000 vs. Lenovo Yoga 3. I'm trying to be an adult by focusing on function over form. From a brand perspective I've had trouble with HP and Lenovo - though they look better.
