Not gonna buy thunderbolt cables just for a laptop and then additionally an adapter to work with my Ryzen powered desktop... And if they went Ryzen, we could of had same priced laptop with DOUBLE the cores, about the same GPU power and better battery life.

[@stefanejegod8644]

I daily drive a dragonfly (with a 4k? screen), and it was more or less a hand-me-down from the previous guy that had the job. I work as an internal IT consultant in a large production facility, and I hardly do any ressource heavy work on it, (that's placed in the virtual server environment) and it's perfectly fine for that. The screen is definitely trash in regards of lights if you have to look at it for long. But then again, if you're doing long-hours writing on this one, you'd be immediately more annoyed by the tiny size, and if you're doing spreadsheet work or similar, you'd be more annoyed of the lack of a keypad. It fits my line of work where I sit most of the time at my desk, where this is connected by a single USB-c cable to my dock, and driving a couple of 1440p displays. Then, in a meeting or when someone in the factory needs help, I'll just snap it out of the dock and I'll have my handy little workstation with me. It hardly makes any noise as well, unless you reach the point of it going nuts. Like if you actually want it to process something demanding. Then it'll just go all bonkers and the battery will drain much faster. Then when I go back home, I might sit in bed and watch something, but I've more or less stopped doing that, as it's just annoying. If I want to use it as a tablet, the speakers are now on the back of the device, and audio is muffled, so I'm guessing tablet mode is for reading only. But then there's the light/screen issue In-bag detection? Is that something you have to enable? So far it haven't worked on mine. I have multiple times taken it out of the bag some hours later and it's just STEAMING. Or even the next day. I mean impressive that's it's not dead or the battery have hold up, but it haven't shut off itself. Audio is just.... I mean incredible. That being said, my workplace is owned by Altor, which is this huge investment group, which... also own HP, and Altor partners get HP products like... ~30% cheaper? than market prices I think. (Or at least we did when products were available.) which puts it in a much different product tier. Long story short, it's a neat little PC, and it does what I need in a laptop. It's made to do small tasks, like connecting to a bunch of servers from wherever I am, which allowing me to be really mobile if I need that in an entire day. The monitor is really the only drawback, but like I said, used in USB-C dock with an external monitor... really negates the issue.

Exactly even the new Razer blade 14 with a 3070 is slightly cheaper

[@hawktalonandroid]

Eh HEEYYY! LTT now states MTs instead of MHz! Guess it actually does matter!

[@confuded]

WAN show reference.

[@rakeshshastri2487]

I like how LMG has started using MT/s after Dr Cutress' video. When everyone in a discussion come from a genuine perspective, the outcome of the discussion will often include changed minds

No thunderbolt on both sides? An unfortunate omission

[@Balgoriusis]

4:00 imperial units just got burned man....

[@morrislazootin9426]

Not to mention 1.63kg isn’t 2 and a half pounds…

[@marvinjohn]

@@morrislazootin9426 it's actually 1.163kg. He said it wrong.

Are they trying to beat Apple ? " Yesterday's tech in Tomorrow's Price "

hello everybody

[@robertaries2974]

Hi Benny it's everybody

[@grahamb7947]

It's HP... It may seem perfect at unboxing, but let's be real, it's still an HP. It's still either designed to break as soon as the warranty period ends or built so crappily that it can't withstand time... I've had a very bad history with their machines myself, and my employer even switched from using Dell's Wyze clients to HP machines on contract... all the monitors they bought have started breaking just a year later, one after another. The old monitors they had, from Fujitsu Siemens, were 15-20 years old before they started failing. Anyone who loves tech should avoid HP like the plague. They actually tie with Acer for worst company for quality in my view... and that's saying something, what with Acer's very far from respectable reputation for quality.

[@slowflow__]

Overpriced.

[@user-hs2hd7wp9g]

I don't get why this costs so much compared to say a Lenovo Slim 7 which is one third of the price

[@lbsiuk]

It's still about double the weight of the Acer Swift 7. And even more expensive.

[@odinsplaygrounds]

Wtf. How come people are always complaining about Apple pricing when we have over priced pieces of shit like this? $2200 for 4 cores and no dedicated GPU. Just ridiculous.

The music in the background sounds like something you could make from the club penguin DJ area, especially at the beginning.

[@progamingdna3145]

A XPS 13 with the same specs as this hp cost 1650 USD and I don't know where this hp beats it other than the webcam which I can buy a external webcam and still save hundreds of dollars The non touch is literally 900 bucks cheaper than this hp

[@Editzwithpassion]

I guarantee when he said, it has only a quad core intel CPU, 50% of the people left the video there.

[@jivewig]

2:35 is that all you get for 2265$ ?? I’d rather just get the M1 MacBook Pro with a 1tb SSD and 16gigs ram. It’ll still be cheaper and faster than this laptop.

[@akaRAIJIN]

imagine paying over 2 grand for this thing lmao

[@lennard9331]

1.6kg is light? I just checked how much my Rog Flow X13 weighs and that one weighs 1kg without the charger and destroys the Firefly in terms of most performance metrics. Idk, I feel like Hp is mostly trying to put an Intel tax on this thing and hoping to get away with it. A good webcam and decent speakers don't warrant a 2.2 grand price-tag, kinda unfortunate for the latter two specs.

[@RannonSi]

The scale said 1.163 kg, he just rounded up 500g or so. ^^.

[@suvamroutray6372]

The headphones you showed is about 400 dollars in india. How about making a video on comparing price of few products in a few different countries. That will be very entertaining 🙂

[@GlassICE]

Only 4 Cores !!! Really !!! Naaaah, i'm just gonna buy an M1 Macbook for 8 Cores then

[@ayushrathi8995]

Best 13 Inch speaker; meanwhile MacBook Pro - Hold my beer

[@Rocman76]

This is a terrible laptop for the money...are you guys for real? an Intel quad core? 512Gb drive... lol

Title: Almost Perfect Laptop The laptop: Intel

[@Sumitssj13]

Why would anyone love a laptop that has a trash screen, integrated graphics, no 16:10 aspect ratio for that kind of money lol.

[@faiyadomer9944]

Title almost perfect Price $2265 *Comes in messed up af cardboard box.*

[@stefanbekan1298]

Damn, I never saw LTT in this light. They really want those HP dollas.

[@stefanbekan1298]

Although tbh, this video is far more unbiased in comparison to Linus's sponsored video. Alex is great

[@JakubKuczys]

This one isn't sponsored by HP :p

[@callmeam1r_909]

If they removed the screen reflect privacy thingy the screen quality would be better and price could go down
