Great all round laptop
I absolutely love the look of this laptop. A premium machined body in a beautiful "dark ash" color with just enough gold bling to make it look elegant and different. But it really is about performance. Cold startup in about 8 seconds and you are ready to go. That SSD is a huge step up from the hard drive on my previous machine and the face recognition logs you right in. I have to sign contracts from time to time and the touch screen and windows ink make it a breeze signing straight onto the screen. The tablet mode simplifies that task as well as I can fold it over and sign as if it were a piece of paper. A number of reviews have questioned the 2 in 1 capability of a 15" machine as they felt it was too large for this functionality. I can tell you that I have used tablet mode on a number of occasions and find it very convenient. Yes, the machine is heavier than a lightweight tablet but I rest it on my lap and the touch screen makes it a great feature for me. I have no regrets choosing a 15" machine over its smaller brother. The extra screen real estate is well worth it and the battery lasts through the day with my on and off usage. The Spectre also packs all the ports I need for peripherals. The only annoyance I have is that the touch pad is extremely sensitive and it often selects a link on a web page when I am simply trying to scroll down the page. I am very happy with the keyboard, though, and love the number pad which my old machine lacked. The speakers are great (I understand there are 4 on the machine) for a laptop of this size and I find them clear and quite loud when turned up. All in all I am very happy with this purchase.

Best Investment for Business
VERY Quick startup. Easy security options and wide variety of sign-in methods. touch screen is simple and accurate. Perfect combo of full function tablet and laptop. Battery lasts a long time. Color and graphics are great for photo editing. Durable. Came with nice case/ sleeve. Looks stylish and professional. Touch pad is responsive to light touch. (no clicking/ pressing needed) Sound is good quality for conferencing. One of the best computers I have owned for personal and business use. I don't do a lot of "gaming", but I would imagine it would work well for those too with the quality of graphics and speed it has. This computer was a quick, walk in, need it now purchase. I use my laptop daily and travel with it often. The staff member who answered my questions and quickly led me to this computer is a huge asset to the store. I gave him 7 minutes to help me find one before my next meeting and I am glad I did. I only wish the keyboard lit up and it had an extra USB port. Get an multi-port adapter to run more than one plug in device. (really not a big deal) i have had mine about 6 months and it has been worth every penny!
