This is far better review than vast majority on yt. I wish you MEASURED everyday usage fan noise as well. Like, play a yt video, or a browser script.
How does the 14 inch model compare to the Acer swift go 14 OLED, ultra 7 155h and 32gb ram? The swift go recently came to my country, should I buy one or waiting for x360
Do you have leaderboard list for all laptops you have reviewed this year?
Great review as alwyas. For Envy intel version of both 14 and 16 models, strangely, HP is offering both Core Ultra U series and H series and that's making things a bit confusing to pick the correct one. You probably should do another review of the 14" model with 125H or 155H .
Hi sir can u please tell whether Hp envy x360 intel evo platform ultra 5 125u can be used for good photoshop and coraldraw work
Great review. Cheers!
Nice laptops. Camera and mics good. Display good. These are two reasonably priced units that would be good for students and other day users. Excellent quality reviews as always.
I wanted to love the Envy 14 so much. For me it was nearly perfect, except for one thing: the speakers caused so much vibration around the mousepad. I know it’s picky but it’s so distracting. Drove me crazy and sent mine back :(
Do this laptops have listings in Amazon?
Loved your review, like usual! ❤ I have a question though. Do you know why HP doesn't include the battery management settings on their Envy and Spectre laptops? It seems kind of strange that it's available on their business laptops but not their consumer ones. Maybe with your connect you could reach out to HP and see what they say?
Good question! I will ask HP.
@@andrewmarcdavid you're awesome 💯
Thanks, best review
Glad you liked it!
Really great review. I was looking for a laptop and your review helps a lot. It wil be perfect a comparison with Lenovo Yoga 7 with Ryzen 7 8840HS.
These two are the ones I am looking at too :)
Where are you leaning?
Great review - as always, professional. I'm looking forward to the review of both Dell Precisions and the battery results.
Coming soon!
How is OLED and burn-in on modern Windows laptops, Andrew? If I picked this laptop up, how long would the display last?
Great Review BTW
Thanks!
Not an issue for me in these units no burn in
3:12 what is the app you are using to demonstrate the pen?
Microsoft Journal App
Thanks a lot!
Hello. Please review HP Zbook Studio 16
Thank you again, Andrew. I bought an AMD Envy 15" 2in1 in 2022 based on your review and I am generally, very happy. I use a small monitor but would like higher resolution. I try to watch all of your reviews of similar products. I like your review of the AM 16" Imax you recently posted. The price is great BUT should I wait till 2025 to take "advantage" of AI, CoPilot and the new processors and more RAM perhaps. I typically use the PC for business tasks but I often have 15 or more windows open, 2 or more Spread Sheets, Quickbooks and several browser windows as well
Do you know when you’ll be able to review the HP Elitebook 1040 x360 G11 models?
Coming next week stay tuned
I just ordered 14 one but with amd cpu and 32g ram yesterday! I was waiting for your review on this laptop. Great job 😍👍🏻
@@gkv633 I have not received it yet bro . I'll check this as soon as it arrives
@@gkv633 I have not received it yet bro. I will check as soon as it arrives
Wait, the review said AMD caps at 16GB RAM?
@@MarkizVonSchnitzelno I got Ryzen 7 8840hs with 32GB ram model
@@AliZamaniam are you happy with it? Thinking for buying the same with 16GB for studying. Strong enough?
Overall HP did a good job for Envy this year. One problem with HP is that they removed the remaining time from the battery display. Please check this with Envy's laptop. Thank you Andrew for the nice review.
The price point for these devices is amazing!! I like these
what is up with hp and there hinges? If i were to buy one would you say there is a good chance the hinge will break?
Especially if as a student i am folding over laptop frequently so use the tablet mode.
I had the 14 inch HP Envy x360 for about a year before one of the hinges spontaneously broke. I took it out of my backpack one day and when I opened it up the hinge had broken and cracked my screen. Unfortunately a repair for the damage wasn't worth keeping the laptop, so I had to buy a completely new laptop that does not have the kind of hinges the HP laptops have. The design of the hinges is flawed and many other owners have complained of the same issue. Personally, I would not recommend this laptop because of that specific issue, but otherwise I loved my laptop and I am disappointed I had to replace it.
@@jennifernomura7681 thanks
I have 2018 Envy x360 13. Used it as a chat screen, folded over, for 2 years while WFH, use it every day frequently, fold it to tent for movies.. Hinge is like day 1. Does not even wobble. I hve no idea if that means anything in 2024, but clearly HP CAN make a sturdy hinge.
After 6 years, keyboard has started failing though, and it's glued. There are still parts to buy, but I'm thinking it' time to replace. Though, Zen 5 is coming soon.. Then again, Envy is a dead line now, so who knows if there will even be an equivalent device.
Well I am thinking i spend a lot to get the 2024 spectre or get another newer 2 in 1 that’s got that new snapdragon chip maybe xps line but yeah I am holding off for now
I've owned an Hp Envy x360 15 inch for 3 years now and have had to send it for warranty repairs for a broken hinge and a fingerprint sensor that stopped working. The hinge issue is very common from what I've seen in several forums. The laptop is excellent but durability is a major concern - Hp seems to go cheap with some components. Don't expect it to exceed 2 years without some major fault.
Really nice review there Andrew.
Can you kindly do a review on HP Envy 17 2024 too?
I would really appreciate it.
There are two audio sounds at 10:03😂
Was about to comment this
its quite weird the space bar is not backlit
HP ENVY with AMD and the IPS screen of 62.5% sRGB and 300 nits I am not sure yet about the screen.
Would you recommend it over lenovo slim 7?
I’m also thinking about the Slim 7 LOL
The Gen 8 tho
I still need to review that one.
@@andrewmarcdavid Really? That would be awesome! Not many reviews out there
I just got the HP Spectre 16 for drawing (it was on sale for less than the 16 inch at Best Buy with the same RAM configuration but with an RTX 4050 at 50 - 55 watts, which HP is not listing, violating Nvidia's OEM requirements to list TGP, and half the SSD space, from 2 TB to 1 TB, but at least it can be replaced). That is going to be my tablet tomorrow.
Unfortunately, not only was the 14 inch more expensive, but it also lacks an HDMI port and doesn't have good GPU performance for what I plan to do on it (even a lower wattage RTX 4050 runs curcles arouns the Intel Arc iGPUs). I can take the hit in battery life in this case from the 14 to the 16.
But compared to the XPS 14/16, it's no contest; the Spectres are better for pretty much everything apart from RAM (64 GB max on the XPS but 32 GB on the Spectres, both soldered) but its way too expensive on the XPS to get that much RAM and they have too many other issues like the keyboard, touch row, touchpad, and other QC issues, for far more than the Spectres or Lenovo Yoga Pro 9i (for the 16 inch XPS).
The Envys and most Windows laptops would be even better if they didn't replace the right control key (which I use a lot) with the useless for me CoPilot key; if they just added it between the control and alt keys like Lenovo did, then that wouls be much more acceptable. (Still annoying though!)
I hope Dell learns from the Envys and Spectres and completely redoes the XPS laptops, because they're straight up trash for the price this year compared to every other laptop.
Thanks for sharing Cameron.
@andrewmarcdavid You're welcome. As much as I love laptops with upgradable RAM and my Framework is still my main laptop and computer, I do still need something with a touch screen for Krita. (As of May 2024, there's no offical touch screen option on any Framework Laptop and I won't be getting an iPad because Krita is not on iPadOS and for other reasons like iPadOS in general.)
Update: I unfortunately got a refund because Best Buy told me that FedEx had damaged my package. I decided to get the Asus ROG Flow x13 (with 32 GB of RAM and the RTX 4070) because I do value a 2 in 1 but one with a smaller size and a dGPU.
The key takeaway from these two laptops is that for their price point, you do get a lot of bang for your buck. Obviously there are better laptops out there but for what they offer, I won't quibble too much. The HP Envy 14 and 16 do have minor differences so as Andrew states, choose wisely to make sure you get the right one that will fit your needs. They both have beautiful OLED displays, clear webcams as well as internal mics, the 14" can be specked out at 32GB of soldered RAM at checkout while the 16" can only be specked out at 16GB of soldered RAM unfortunately. The Wifi card on the 14" variant has Wifi 7 while the 16" variant comes out of the box with Wifi 6E although you can switch it out if you choose. The speakers on the 16" sounds louder and fuller than the speakers on the 14" variant however. In conclusion, if I were to choose one over the other, the one I would select is the 14" variant due to the 32GB of RAM and Wifi 7 which is more future proof than on the 16" variant. Brilliant review Andrew!! 👍😁
Thanks 🙏
So you buy a bigger and slightly more expensive laptop and get less. No thanks.
Did they improve the hinge?
Yes it’s much improved
@@andrewmarcdavid yeah because I got 2022 envy, and it broke very easily . I just extended the flap and then boom screws are out.
When thunderbolt 5 would be available in laptops?
Now, but only on the Razer Blade 18.
Do asus vivobook s16 oled ryzen 9!
Thanks sir. Great job
Most welcome
Thank you. Please Review Samsung Galaxy Book 4 Pro 360 and Book 3 Pro 360. More Samsung Galaxy Book 4 Pro 360 a lot. Please.
Did them already
Waiting to see the snapdragon versions of the two! It could be meaningless to buy these!
I'll have to pass on these models since they don't have the page up/down/end/home on the right side of the keyboard. Those keys make it real easy to scroll up/down webpages, especially for people who have arthritis.
Agree
If that’s your only dealbreaker, you could add a USB or Bluetooth number pad to it, and just leave the Num Lock off so you can use the home/end and page up/down keys on it instead. I certainly wish they included the keys on the laptop and am in no way defending them, but that’s an alternative for people who absolutely need those keys and opens up your options a lot
Once upon a time Envy 13 x360 were wonderful laptops with AMD processors with good battery life and very thin screen bezels.
With the switch to Intel chips, the increase in weight and size, it became rubbish.
Yes, and 16GB of RAM in 2024 (
👍
hp pavilion aero
I’ve had 2 hp envy x360’s in recent years, and on both the hinges have broken, a known manufacturing fault, on one the motherboard died twice, once in warranty, then recently again. So £900ish wasted. No product recall that I know of, beware of hp build quality
battery life sucks , just got it and battery lasts 3 hours just browsing online
Wtf is this 10:03?
forgot to mute the audio from the teardown video form HP
HP is horrible. i love my hp envy with ryzen 7 i bought in 2020, but the laptop will always stuck in black screen or has problems after windows updates. I have to do clean install every time the laptop updates.
