After using the new HP Spectre for 4 months, I wanted to show you the features I like, dislike, and don't actually use.
HP SPECTRE x360 GEM CUT: amzn.to/2JfcLDJ
FULL REVIEW: • New HP Spectre x360 15...
After my first impression video, I have since changed my opinions on some features and now either like or dislike them. Overall, this is still an amazing laptop, but there are a few caveats to be aware of. I think that this laptop might be the best student laptop of 2019 if you can afford it. It is a hefty investment, but well worth is if you need a laptop with power and speed.
Added review notes:
The Good:
EXTERIOR
* Aesthetics - many compliments
* Keyboard is perfectly clicky and well back lit
* Magnetic lid closure
* Webcam switch is amazing (and anyone who says they still tape it is ridiculous)
* Can charge via USB-C (Sorry for the mis-speak last time!!)
* Rarely heats up at all - if it gets warm during 4k exports, I just change the fan control and even then it is not loud
* I was worried that the gold would scratch off, but it really doesn’t
INTERIOR
* Very very fast
* Fantastic screen
* Battery life
* Fan control (with HP settings)
* Battery control
* HP EQ panel
RARELY USED
* HP Spectre Pen is very fun to use, although it is not extremely useful
* Tablet mode is very fun and appealing, but I almost never use it
* Three settings of backlit keyboard makes it perfect for any lighting condition (I rarely use the brightest though - what is the point?)
The Bad:
EXTERIOR
* Screen is a bit “jiggle” - proper stiffness, but poorly damped
* Fingerprint sensor
* If I leave the webcam off, face ID will not let me in - instead I use my PIN a lot
* All USB-C ports are on the same side, and very close together
* Speaker buzz at high volumes
* some complain of high pitch fan sounds - I noticed no such thing though
INTERIOR
* 4K editing can be a bit slow to render
* 2 GPUs can make it tricky for programs like OBS, but I figured out how to work around that
* Most components are soldered in, so adding RAM, etc. is not practical
* Price is a bit high - for this price, I think HP could have stepped a few things up a notch
