I believe so. A word of caution however. I have just replaced the original Spectre that I purchased due to a failed battery. I don't know if this had to do with the HP C-Port replicator I use; from plugging in the power to either one of the laptop's ports; using both at the same time or just a coincidence. I didn't buy the Best Buy support package but opted for one of the HP Care Pack's that was supposed to include onsite support. Apparently "onsite" is only available for certain types of repairs and battery replacement wasn't one of them. They wanted me to ship the laptop in for 2 to 3 weeks to be repaired. Since it was within the Best Buy return period, I opted to exchange it instead but had to spend the better part of a day re-installing all my apps.
