HP Spectre provides all you need. Speed, storage and memory are ideal for most any power user.

The ad was unclear -- I received an i7-11 box. It was lovely but a battery hog. I returned it -- and bought a Dell Inspiron 16 i7-12 OLED box and saved $500!

I bought this on clearance so it was a great buy. It is exactly what I was looking for. I miss having a numeric keypad but I am getting used to it. The display is beautiful. I haven't had any issues.

I have the last specter 360 model and found this one to be faster however it’s also incredibly heavy and I don’t care for the half cover on the side USB receptacle, seems as if it will break easily. I am not an expert on the tech side of things but found the laptop too cumbersome to be a tool I can comfortably carry to sales calls on a daily basis. So for this reason I will be returning this one.

DO NOT BUY A SPECTRE

One of the worst purchases I've ever made. HP is working with me because it's had so many repairs so we are replacing the unit with a completely different style of computer. I should have heeded to the negative reviews more. PAIN IN THE REAR dealing with this system.
It buffers CONTINUALLY and cannot run a bunch of windows at the same time. Totally a bust for my needs.

Spec wise, this laptop had everything i was looking for, something thay could be used for e weything i do. Less than 24 hours out of the box i have not been able to use it for anything. Cannot use it for vr because of the intel Iris XE iGPU somehow trumps the 3050. Poor battery life, did not make it 12 hours on standby. Normal usage for basic pc function completely locks up like its 1995. The speakers are attrocious. You cant listen to cello music at 25% without it sounding like your maxing out the speakers on a 1991 geo metro.
The ports are poory layed out and I could not get a single thing to actually read theough the thunderbolt ports.

The product is good. Nice picture! Still learning about it. However, the salesperson that I originally spoke with about a computer- not so great! I had a bad feeling about the way he treated and what he said to me, but at the time I brushed it off and left. I then ordered the computer online. And before you ask I did not get his name.
