    Amazing Versatile 2 in 1 Laptop multi use Laptop

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    This 2 in 1 laptop is the most versatile laptop I have used. The design is premium Aluminum material which looks and feels great. The device is super slim, and easily fits inside your bookbag. I really love the edge cutouts, and how the USB C port, and the audio jacks are incorporated into these slits. This tucks the cable behind the device when charging, so its not coming out the side, and gives more space for the second thunderbolt plug. The screen shows very great details w/o the sacrifice of it being full 4k and hurting battery life. I set mine to full 120hz and is did not seem to affect the battery life much so far. The keyboard is amazing with perfect spaced out keys that feel great to the touch along with an awesome haptic trackpad. This thing runs task with 0 lag. I have not tried editing 4k videos yet, but will be doing that at some point and expect this to perform well. The Benchmark test are a great improvement over previous years model especially in dual core performance, and a slight increase in graphics performance. Dont expect to play top games with this device as its not a gaming laptop, but basic games run w/o any hiccups. You could also buy a EGPU which plugs into the laptop via Thunderbolt port and play any major titles, but these are quite pricey. Pro's: -Premium design -excellence performance -great keyboard -improved graphics and processor -good battery life -compact size -fingerprint reader, and Windows Hello support -great for personal and business use -compact 65w charger Cons: -No HDMI Port -does not come with stylus when bought from BestBuy version -does not come with multiple dongles including hdmi dongle you get order through HP -Does not come with Sleeve Case anymore

    This generation suffers from the same issue last generation had. While closed the screen will press and rub against some of the keys and eventually will get scratched. Just returned mine yesterday as i noticed it had superficial marks on the screen when I'd open it after it being closed for hours. Otherwise it was a great laptop.

    The best Windows 2 in 1, still a Windows Laptop

    I have been looking for the perfect Windows laptop for the last few years, and this is the closest I have found thus far. I have been using the Macbook Pro 14 2021 since launch day, and I still hold firmly that this is the best laptop ever made. However, it is really not for me. I have tried the Dell XPS 15 2022, the Razer Blade 15 2022, and this is far above those for my use case. I was able to kill two birds with one stone and replace my iPad and MacBook with this laptop. The pros are: phenomenal haptic touchpad (a rarity on a Windows machine), a great high resolution OLED fast refresh rate touch screen, great battery life for a Windows laptop, a very good keyboard, lightning fast Windows Hello, 2 in 1 convertibility, fairly light and portable, a USBA port, USBC charging, a very generous 32 GB of RAM and 2 TB of NVME SSD configuration on the $1900 model, premium yet not MacBook level build quality. Cons: The performance is subpar, even comparing to my 3 year old MBP it is outclassed, the Intel Core Ultra 7 is not a very underwhelming; the high performance mode it is very underwhelming, the high fan noise when doing all but the most basic tasks, the inability to set a non-Windows modern standby sleep mode, leading the CPU to be active when closed and plugged in so that charging time is abysmal; and the laptop is loud and hot while I am asleep, high power consumption while watching videos, and finally the lack of a USBC charging port on either side of the laptop.

    It is a powerful laptop with good battery life. I can set the screen at 75% and can get 7-8 hours on battery for browsing the web, youtube, and some light photo editing. The intel arc iGPU can do some light gaming. The laptop never get too warm and the fans are quiet.

    Great laptop but some odd design issues

    Overall great laptop and would recommend it. The screen is great, the keyboard feels nice, trackpad works very well. There are a few things I don't like about this laptop and I don't understand why HP designed it that way. The power button/fingerprint scanner is the upper right-most key. My two previous laptops (an HP Envy and an Asus Zenbook) both had the DEL key as the right-most key and I have to be careful not to hit the power button when deleting something. it's an odd design decision considering I use the DEL key much more frequently than the power button. It also complains whenever I plug-in a different power supply about using an original HP power supply. Because I use this with a USB dock with power delivery, I don't want to use the HP power supply. And finally, the MyHP app does not allow me to change performance settings if I'm using a 3rd party power supply. It seems like HP is going out of their way to make things incompatible. I am also seeing a lot of errors in the Reliability Monitor related to HP Display Control and occasional Hardware Error that's a bit alarming. Seems like HP released this without fully fixing all the bugs. I have owned an HP Omen laptop, an HP Envy desktop and laptop and now this Spectre but I will think twice about buying another HP because of these odd design/compatibility issues. I hope HP is paying attention. Otherwise, it works well for my main reason to buy this laptop - photo editing. This is powerful enough to meet my needs.

    Nice laptop but could be better. When I purchased this I was told it was upgradeable to 64gb of ram and up to 8tb of storage. Well that turned out to be false. 32gb ram and 2tb of storage is the max. Nothing upgradeable at all which has become way to common now days. When you spend that kind of money on a laptop the consumer should have the option to do some upgrades on their own if they so choose. It's not Best Buy's fault, its the manufactures of these laptops. They all do it now and taken any options out of the hands of the consumers.

    This is a well-crafted computer, but the grid-like pattern on the screen surface really detracts from the visual appeal, especially on light backgrounds. Its performance is not stellar, but it gets the job done for everyday office tasks. The battery life is decent, though there aren't any standout features compared to other Ultra processor laptops

    All around great laptop when ON SALE. Do not buy this at full price! Also, took a star off since you won't get the HP Pen and bag with the BestBuy model. I would recommend this for anyone looking for a solid MacBook air replacement that can do a little gaming on the side when the intel drivers are up to date.

    Need at least 32GB memory these days

    HP makes the best Windows laptops and after having owned them over the years, recently I realized that 32GB memory is the minimum required these days. That's what this computer has and so far the computer has been working flawlessly. The OLED display is fantastic and it helps avoid that endless scrolling down of a web page and other programs.

    Excellent alternative to a Macbook Air

    I’ve had the new Spectre for a little over a week and I’m blown away. I’m one of those people that get a new computer every couple of years. I upgraded to this over the M2 Macbook Air (which is an excellent computer btw). I needed a Windows computer for work and went with this due to build quality, specs, and the 2 in 1 format. I don’t regret making the switch. The screen is amazing, laptop looks and feels great, touchpad is excellent. Its quick and while I don’t game, has handled everything I’ve thrown at it with ease.

    Great form factor, very nice display, fairly speedy for such a thin and light laptop, and the Core Ultra chip provides better battery life than previous Intel chips, however the new Snapdragon X Elite and AMD chips will likely put the battery life of the Core Ultras to shame.

    I am extremely satisfied with the build quality. It’s perfect laptop for the size, screen resolution and keyboard form factor. The battery life is very good and I can see almost 6 hours of battery life with video playback. Overall I am very happy that I got such a good deal and nice laptop.

    The best value, yet premium Windows 11 Laptop with new Intel Core Ultra 7 in the market. Great OLED screen, very good battery life, premium build, unique design. I would choose this over the likes of Dell XPS 14.

    Its extremely powerful and is hands down the best laptop that ive had. As a graphic designer it also perform phenomenally, so anyone within that field will also be pleased. I can run photoshop, illustrator and Indesign without any significant spike in lag or drop in frames.
