Almost 5 stars - excellent Win 10 ultrabook
on March 6, 2017
Posted by: Brent
Pros:
Keyboard is one of the best I have used. HP put effort here, and it shows.
U-series Intel 7th Generation Kaby Lake is very robust and energy efficient. I've had some personal experience with Dell's new XPS 13 2-in-1 running a Y-series processor - and it just didn't just have the sustained power to tackle anything but light usage.
4K screen offers amazing resolution and color saturation. Some scaling issues, but overall really good.
Battery - I've gotten 6 or 7 hours easily with heavy use at 75% screen lighting. It will last the better part of a workday on a single charge.
Ports - 2 USB C, and a much appreciated USB 3.0 and headphone jack meet most of my needs without requiring a dongle.
Cons:
Trackpad . . . the one major flaw on the Spectre. The trackpad is laggy and sloppy. It's a 2 or 3 star trackpad on an otherwise 5 star machine.
HP's bloatware - the Spectre comes fully loaded, but a clean install of Windows 10 takes care of that.
Overall, I really like this ultrabook. It was an upgrade for me from an old Surface Pro3 - and I'm glad I made the purchase. A bluetooth mouse is enough to make me forget the only real flaw in the Spectre.
My Best Buy number: 2963428679
I would recommend this to a friend!
