Product Manuals
Q: What is the difference between this model and model 13-AP0023DX? Specs look identical for both.
A: Solid State Drive (PCI-e) accelerated by Intel® Optane™ I just looked at this new model the 53DX on Monday and it has the new Intel OPTANE 32 Cache Memory for Super Fast loading of Programs and whatever else it does.
Q: Does this computer have an HDMI port?
A: No, the 13in ones do not have a HDMI port. They have one regular USB, 2 type C, one micro SD
A: Short answer, no. Slightly longer answer - the only location is on the leather sleeve that is included with the 2-in-1 laptop/convertible (granted, the leather sleeve is pretty nice but the stitching on the sleeve is poor). I do agree that it seems a bit daft in terms of the design of the laptop. It would be a better designed laptop if the laptop, itself, has a slot to house the pen. One would think the designers and the engineering team would have thought this through better. It just seems that they focused on the design of the laptop and then decided, at the end of the project, to throw a pen in since they forgot about the touchscreen aspect of the design during the development process. Another option that HP missed on could have been to just make the sides out of a magnetic metal (such as cobalt or nickel or a ferrous-alloy) and make the pen magnetic (much like the MS Surface devices and the MS Surface Pen). I have included a picture of where the pen is stored on the leather sleeve. Overall, the laptop is good and I still chose to keep it after the initial few days of messing around with it. The Intel i7-8565U is a refreshed Coffee Lake architecture CPU (the i7-8565U is a Whiskey Lake architecture CPU, which is just a higher binned and higher boost clock Coffee Lake i7-8550U). The integrated graphics, iGPU, in the Intel CPU is pretty weak (it has an Intel UHD 620 iGPU) for driving the 4K model (3840x21060p60 screen). Just for basic stuff, like browsing, you will see a few hiccups here-and-there in the form of stuttering. Obviously, gaming is way out of the question here...but, then again, you wouldn't be buying this for gaming, right? If you are, please look at discrete GPU laptops. I bought mine to record video lectures of mathematics or science topics using OBS Studio, MS OneNote (or some other 3rd party program or app for digital writing). It works great for that and, thus, the laptop is great for teachers, professors, or presenters. On a side note - I am not too fond of the HP Pen that is included and I use a MS Surface Pen instead. Good luck!
Q: Can you add to the 512GB Solid State Drive to bring it up to 1TB?
A: There is no space for a 2nd hard drive in this laptop. You could swap out the solid state drive that comes with this laptop to a bigger solid state drive.
Q: are the 512 ssd and the 16gb ram upgradeable?
A: Ram is soldered in the motherboard, so it is not upgrade-able. I'm not sure about the SSD
Q: Can this laptop run AutoCad programs smoothly?
A: Yes, this laptop can run AutoCad programs smoothly.
Q: How loud are the fans on this computer?
A: I don't consider them too loud but you can definitely hear them. I wouldn't want them going off in a quiet public place. I noticed that they only go off when I've had it sitting on my bed for a long time. I've never had them go off while it was sitting on a table. When they do go off, I like to flip the computer so the bottom is facing up and can cool off fast. It only lasts for about a minute once you change positions.
A: I just bought the blue. It has silver thank goodness.
