Thanks for this brilliant and complete review - I've gone ahead and bought one of these - currently they can be found here in Europe with very big discounts as the model is being replaced but with these great specs it is now a real bargain!
This video answers all my questions! RAM/SSD upgradeability, internal GPU performance, and the performance of the CPU to use with an external GPU. Thanks! This has been a great help in my transition from desktop to laptop+eGPU.
Awesome video, and thanks for the teardown... There was a lot of different information floating around regarding ram upgradability. Would you be able to do a comparison between temperatures and fan noise with the old model by any chance? Or maybe with some model with similar specifications?
Excellent video! the most informative video I have seen regarding this laptop model. In one of your replies to the comments below, you stated that there is no room to add an additional internal SSD. However, when customizing the specs on the HP website, there is an option to choose intel SSD's with Optane Memory instead of M.2 Nvme for internal storage. I am wondering if the black area shown to the right hand side of the battery is where an additional internal SSD would be installed. Please let me know.
Thanks for the very helpful tear-down. Nobody else so far has done this. I am curious about one particular thing, though - what is the maximum capacity ssd that this system can work with? For example, if I got a 4TB PCIe NVMe M.2 SSD, would it work in this unit? I'm very impressed by your work, so I've subbed up to your channel. Keep up the good work!
Great review! Finally someone that gives clarity on whether usb-c charging works and what impact it has. Did you try any USB-C / TB3 docking stations by chance? Heard that HP laptops tend to have compatibility issues
hi, thanks for this excellent review (best on youtube by far!) Are you planning to repaste it? I should get my spectre in the mail in about a week or two and I'd like to repaste it, I was able to do my XPS 9570, but for that, there are lots of instructions online. Would you possibly make a video of doing it, if you do it? Do you think removing the heatsink would be difficult? Thanks!
If I run into thermal issues I might consider adding different thermal compound to the Heatsinks, but as of right now the thermals are pretty good. If I do end up doing it, I will for sure make a video.
Does it allow you to add an extra internal harddrive? And did I hear you correctly about getting an extra performance boost if you use an external display through the HDMI port??? I bought the spectre x360 15t with the GTX 1650 16g ram 512gig hard drive I want to add a drive.
No room internally for another drive, but you can definitely upgrade the existing one to a larger size. The performance boost when playing over an external display only applies if you are using an eGPU Enclosure.
@@MrArmageddonBuilds it actually is removable, hp support shows how to do it for the 2019, 15 inch model. You do however have to remove and replace the mylar film that covers the metal memory cover over the RAM.
The one I just got from Best Buy (Canada) has a 10th Gen Intel Core i7-10510U with 4 cores. Is this "better" or "worse" than the 9th generation 6 core processor that comes with the direct from HP laptop?
Hello I just want to know if you have had any issues with the laptop like the fans always being on at max speed since I got this laptop and received a defective unit where the fans are always spinning at max speed and I am debating on getting it fixed or just return it so I am just curious to know if you had any similar issues with it?
The RAM is onboard but not soldered on and there is room to expand it. If you have the 16gb model the additional unit is taken up otherwise on the 8gb model it's free to use. but you cannot go above 16gb. I have this exact laptop and contacted HP. If yours is still in warranty they're happy for you to order the part, send it in and they'll do it for you. Excellent service, I'm quite impressed! Beats Apple any day!
I would personally still go with the Spectre. More CPU Cores, Faster GPU, Higher resolution screen and a bit thinner / lighter. If you need more IO ports (USB A & Ethernet) or must have a DVD drive, the Envy would be a good fit otherwise.
Fantastic review! extremely thorough and very well laid out!!. Question are you considering repasting the cpu/gpu? If you are, it would be amazing to see a video on that!! Im considering trying the liquid metal route but still not sure if that is the way to go.
@@MrSnoops3d I am. I have the 2017 Spectre 15t, and despite having lower spec components it gets very hot and the fans are almost always spinning up at full speed. The new one can at times, but it's much quieter for normal usage and light gaming.
First of all I want to say this is an awesome review that goes very in depth and detail since you did open it up to show the internals. I only wish you would have talked a bit more about the 2 in 1 feature even if it were to be brief. Also just a thought for when you tested the performance when using type c power sources could there possibly be some setting that could be making the GPU to run slower when in detects it's in battery mode or if the isn't enough power being supplied? If there is can it be turned off to see if that will increase performance but obviously decrease battery life?
In a recent firmware update, a setting is available for full power using DC (battery). I haven't tested yet, but guessing that would make things run at 100% clock speeds despite not having the full 135w available via the barrel plug... but it would probably chew through your battery very quickly.
Hello there, thanks for this most informative, well-made video! I was wondering if you have any plans to undervolt your unit's CPU and would expect a significant drop in temperature from that? I have the same laptop and did myself run into some thermal issues. When running CS:GO at max settings we see the CPU hitting the lower 90's C and the GPU in the lower 80's C at a room temperature of some 19 C. Reducing settings and locking the frame rate at max 60PFS did reduce temperatures significantly (can be done via the in-game menu for those who wonder). Indeed the machine is not really meant for intense gaming so you will see temps go up quite a bit if you push it hard for an extended period of time so careful everyone... (I suspect the heat from the GPU actually gets transferred on the CPU). Otherwise the machine performs really well and can't find fault with it. If anyone has any questions regarding the laptop I'd be happy to try and answer them. (Spectre x360, gem cut, 15 inch, FHD, 16GB, i7-8750H) Greetings from Amsterdam, Roger

Great review! helped me alot. One thing i am curious about: how good is the pen, regarding latency/accuracy/slow strokes and so on? Could you please make another video about that?
Awesome Review, thank you. Is it possible for you to do the sams benchmarks with The Division 2, also (MMX150 vs 1050TiMaxQ vs 2060 eGPU external&internal Display)?
I would like to know if the lower GPU performance when using USB-C is because of not using the barrel charger, or if its because the lower wattage, I know Dell has a 130 watt USB-C charger, would the GPU performance still be lower when using such a charger?
That's possible, but the current USB-C PD "spec" states a max of 20v @ 5A (100w) power transmission. I'm sure the cables can easily do 130w, but its possible Dell has a modified connector that can accept the extra wattage. If I can get my hands on a 130w USB-C charger, will test it out for sure... after I have verified that it won't fry the USB C port on my Spectre 😜
Is there anyway you could double check about the ram not being replaceable? h10032.www1.hp.com/ctg/Manual/c06422405 would seem to me to indicate the ram is replaceable and is located under the battery? Thanks.
The manual seems to be the same specs as yours and while it does state the ram is non user replaceable it then has instructions for removing the memory on page 33-34
Actually I am purchasing Hp spectre x360 gem cut 15 inch high end model with full specs. So will it have speed and performance for everyday business and casual tasks? And I m also planning to start my UA-cam channel so will it be good for Photo/Video editing, 4k Photo/Video editing, and graphic intensive tasks? But actually I am not a professional graphics guy just a beginner. I am purchasing the model with highest specs so that I don't have to buy another laptop for my increasing needs. So will this laptop be good for me?
I'm hearing a lot about ghosting(trailing) and input lag, what's your take on that? I'm interested in this as a factotum device for traveling, but if the ghosting is too bad, and if there's input lag on top of that, it would be horrible for anything besides taking notes. At that price range it would be pretty unacceptable. For reference Notebookcheck.com lists its screen response time as ~30ms. I'm not expecting to get 1ms response time on a 2-in-1, but I'd like to know if it's noticeable enough.
I personally haven't noticed any bad ghosting, but to be honest, unless it was truly terrible I probably wouldn't see it. For me this is 1st a work laptop, 2nd a travel gaming companion, and fits my current needs perfectly.
@@MrArmageddonBuilds I understand. I'm used to 1ms response over 144FPS so I'm expecting to see a big difference regardless, but some reports like "It blurs so bad while watching videos I couldn't bear it" (from the support section of HP) made me wary.
Got it. In addition to paying games, I have watched a few movies, and edited multiple video projects without noticing anything relating to ghosting of that degree.
MrArmagedd0n great to hear! Why didn’t you get the model with optane memory and will that affect upgradability of nvme ssd? I plan to do this upgrade with a 2tb WD black, hope it doesn’t cause any problems
I have this model when under load and the fans spinning, if I tip the laptop to a V position there is definitely a loud ticking noise coming from the vent. Are you able to test this?
I tried to replicate this, and although I heard a small click at one point, it didn't continue and was not loud at all. Sounded like the fan briefly hit the side of the heatsink housing due to the extreme shift in angle, but then continued on like normal.
@@MrArmageddonBuilds Thanks. I think I may have a faulty heat pipe. Almost sounds like a boiling noise. I pulled it apart and the fans are not hitting anything, but the sound persists. I must have just gotten a dud :/
This was interesting. I have the spectre model with 940mx graphics as my work and travel computer. I was looking into options that would give me better graphics qualities for those really boring hotel nights and as I really like the laptop otherwise I ended up just buying the Aorus 1070 gaming box. I know that it has just 2 lanes, but the performance boost should be very solid anyhow. With that new spectre the internal graphics is pretty solid for quite some gaming so for me no egpu would be needed. I did not want to upgrade anyhow and I figured out that with the egpu option available I can pick my next computer based on what is best for work instead of trying to again find a computer that is good for both gaming and my work.
I would say it's what one would expect with the kind of hardware it packs. Easily can get through a normal day of work on battery, if not using the GPU much.
@@MrArmageddonBuilds thank you for answering. So for a day of School would last like 10 hrs at least? Also without need of the GPU would a usb c 90 watt charge the laptop?
Yes, a 90w charger will charge it when not using GPU. I can easily get around 8 hrs + or - 1-2 hrs depending what I'm doing and screen brightness. I'm also a tab monster and have way more browser tabs (and multiple browsers open) than is optimal performance wise.
Possibly, but one of those cheap "cooling pads" that has internal fans would net the best results. The thermals really are pretty good for the performance this thing gets with how thin it is.
Oops! I thought the SSD was soldered in just like the RAM... Bought it with a 2TB inside thinking it would be near impossible to replace. Well Rip. Lost about 100 -200 bucks probably. Crap.
You should see the 2020 model - it's gorgeous, but they only max it out at 1TB, which HP UK says is based on the feedback that they got from consumers that more than that is not useful. Given the chance, I would upgrade to a 4TB SSD if the system would support it!
MrArmagedd0n I don't believe so, just worried about the thermals in the Spectre. I just ordered the newest model with the Intel i7 9750H and the Nvidia GTX 1650
