20+ year HP business customer - Disappointing, poor design, missing high end finishes and feel.

The current generation Spectre x360 2-in-1 laptop is extremely underwhelming in design compared to previous models (ie. Spectre 15t-eb0000 circa 2020). Sad, very sad. I love my current model, but its aging and this one doesn't look much like of an upgrade, so I'll have to stick with it for a while more. Upon unboxing the new one, I was so unimpressed that I returned it right away. Who designed this thing? The Spectre line is supposed to be HP's premium hardware lineup for professionals, but it looks very subdued and understated, and not in a good way. HP also left out the leather sleeve that came with the last model on this one. Lame move for "premium" if you ask me, which you did. This laptop does not look or feel high end or premium in any way. The design reminds me of something from the 90's. I can't find a reason why anyone would need such an oversized touch pad and subsequent lower body to suit. What a waste of space. Maybe you could have found room to store the pen in there instead of sticking it to the side with a magnet. Additionally, I simply cannot understand why anyone would trade a number pad for speakers along the left and right sides. The placement is just horrible. Please go back to the 2020 design, it was such a sharp, good-looking laptop with a solid quality feel that this current gen is severely lacking.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

HP Spectre x360 not for multi-media

I really enjoy this computer for remote business applications, primarily using Office 365. I would have given a rating a 5 but it runs extremely slow with Adobe Lightroom, to the extent it is far too frustrating to edit the simplest of photos. I had even upgraded the graphics card.

16 inches is not 14

Verified Purchase:Yes
Size differences should be self-evident. I have truly loved my 14" HP Spectre x360 2-in-1 laptop purchased in 2018. So much so that I bought a second one for my wife. Size, weight, performance, touch screen, and especially the micro-SD slot! I keep 10 256GB micro-SD's in my phone's zipper wallet and use them in the Spectre for critical on-the-go backup and access.
Alas, the USB-C connectors began to fail last year. First the power on one, and then the power and data on the other. Fearing I would soon experience its demise, I quickly ordered what I thought was an exciting upgraded latest model with the same 2TB SSD, 16GB RAM. But after pulling the trigger and then reading more specifics I saw that this was not the same model, but a bigger, heavier 16 inch edition and without a mirco-SD slot! I tried to contact HP which took some effort and finally was able to speak with a live person who said they had already begun configuring my order and could not make any changes.
OK, calm down. Two hours after placing your order is too long to change your mind. So, reassess and look at the positives:
The 16" model is vastly superior to the bantam 14". Yes, twice as heavy, but WOW! look at the screen, and the size of the touchpad. Sound quality and loudness is very impressive. Booming bass without distortion. The function-arrow key combinations has taken a bit of adjustment over the previously dedicated HOME-END PGUP-PGDN keys. Speed, keyboard, rapid-on from sleep is a delight. I'm getting used to the bulk and heft. Overall, I'm happy with what I'm stuck with. But really miss the micro-SD slot and 2 lb weight.

If you have owned a Spectre in the past, just beware as this one does not come with a card slot or a pen.

The Keyboard is the worst of all Spectre x360 models so far
on September 6, 2024
Posted by: Gil Ilani
Verified Purchase:Yes
The keyboard design is worse than previous models:
1. It is great that at last there is an FN lock. But activating it with the Shift is a bad idea. Since Home/End/PgUp/PgDown are activated with FN it creates a situation that you need both FN and Shift to select text and then it forces you to think of the order of the buttons. i.e. to press Shift first and then FN in order to select text, cause if you do FN and then Shift it will just toggle the FN-Lock. Very annoying
2. Anyone that writes a lot of text (Word documents) is in high use of Home and End keys. Removing those keys to be activated only with Fn is a big drawback.
3. Move the speakers next to the mouse pad and add back the numeric pad.

Best laptop out there

Verified Purchase:Yes
This laptop is superior to the ones I looked at, and I looked at a lot. The weight, speed, and design is outstanding. Wish it had a few more ports but it will do just fine with what it has. The battery life is awesome too! I got it for medical school so it will come in handy for sure. Overall, I would recommend this product to anyone. I already have!
I would recommend this to a friend!
