A: AnswerHello Scott, and thank you for your question! The HP Spectre 16-aa0023dx laptop has a 120 Hz refresh rate.Answered by HP Team
- A: AnswerThank you for your purchase of the HP Spectre! I am sorry about this issue. You can contact HP Support or check with Geek Squat support if you are a member and they can look into the why it's using so much processing power for regular tasks.

- A: AnswerThank you for your question! I went through the User Guide for his HP Spectre line and from that, confirm that the touchpad includes haptic technology. You can find the manuals for this on HP's support site and they are free PDF downloads.
Answered by HP Team
- A: AnswerThank you for the question. The Spectre16-aa0023dx has a 16" screen (measured diagonally). Screen-to-body ratio is not a measure of the screen size, per se. It is a measure of how much the display covers the face. Think of it as "useable area". It is presented as a percentage, in this case, when opened, the screen will represent 90.55% of the display area, due to the thin bezel (frame).

Very Good improvement Laptop The AI features are
Here is my review after using the Spectre X360 16" with the 4050. The Laptop is very studdary for some reason. I hope HP real eases some sort of update in the near future. Batter life is about 7 hours of Email tasks, word document, YouTube watching videos. The laptop does not screen wobble when tying which is a huge improvement over the predecessors. Get this laptop at the sale price that Best Buy rolls out every now and then.
