I just Want to say, the upgradablitiy section of your video are always the most helpful for me. It really helps me to decide which particular model is fit for me if I want to go for upgrades down the line
I have this laptop. just got it three weeks ago and you're absolutely right. My only complaints are the loud fan noise, tinny speakers ( I am audio fan, I expect more when you have B&O branding) and the average battery life. But it is a very powerful laptop so yea it will be less efficient. It's like getting a muscle car and complaining it's noisy and takes more gas.
Yes unit with 3060 does have tb4. Previous model with the 1650ti had just usb c, and the 2060 variant had tb3. The 3050 supercedes the 1650ti 10th gen. I have the i9, 32gb ram, rtx 2060 4k oled from 2020 and it's an absolute beast. My only disappointment with the envy 15 is that HP do not provide a way of limiting the battery charge, and the speakers could do with being a lot louder and upfiring.
How do I know what kind to tb my laptop has? I bought the 3060 model, tho i can't find any info and i'm barely getting to know the thunderbolt technology.
@@dafakerussian I believe he means charging at a slower rate so as to not degrade the battery capacity as quickly. Quick charging is great but wears a battery out more quickly as well.
Great review as always! Competitions are catching up in this large screen content creator oriented laptop market. And too bad that HP seems to do a simple hardware refresh in this 2021 model. A lot more could be improved next year: 16:10 screen, USB-C charging for portability, and 1080P &IR camera etc.
Love ya, Andrew! Cant WAIT for you to review the new upcoming HP Spectre 16 inch. You've answered my questions on the last couple of your live streams and I want to thank you for the great service you provide for helping us find exactly what we're looking for. I was torn between the XPS 15 inch OLED and the Lenovo ThinkPad X1 extreme Gen 4, but I think I really want a two-in-one and the new HP Spectre 360 16in looks like it checks all my boxes. If the Dell XPS 15 OLED was a two-in-one, I would have bought it already. I even tracked down a lot Jen XPS 15 OLED two-in-one that was way overpriced for the specs. Thanks for all you do. You have the highest production quality in the business. Your production quality is spectacular, my only constructive criticism is that you often buy or gets and an entry-level or mid-level version of the product you're reviewing when I really wish you could review the best version with the best screen. It's hard to make a decision when the specs of the hardware are on the lower end. The OEM manufacturer should really send you the cheapest and the most expensive version of their products so you can let us know if it's worth spending more for the upgrade
Thx for the review. I purchased this laptop, model number 15-ep1055CL w/RTX3060 and it does have two TB4 ports. One thing I want you to know is that while it does have 2 SSD slots, only one of them works! HP confirmed this and what a let down! I do video editing and wanted two on-board SSD's. I put in a 2nd Gen4 SSD and the laptop wouldn't recognize. Had to call HP to verify. Too bad I find this out after I purchased. Just thought I would share this small but important detail because you show 2 SSD slots when you take the back off. Buck
Just wanted to say that my second SSD works great in a 15t-ep100. What I needed to do was download the bios update on the HP website (F.10 Rev.A) and then install the latest Intel RST software for the 11th Gen. processor - took about 5 minutes. You then need to go into Disk Partition manger in Windows (after a reboot) and initialize the second SSD (MBR/GPT - choose the latter) and a quick SSD format later and you've got a fully functional second NTFS SSD up and running in less than 10 minutes...
I purchased this laptop recently, but the fan sound was too loud i found out about disabling fan always on in bios menu. But after disabling that i heard a very weird sound inside the loptop. So i return and ask for new one. But the second on had the same sound. I really wanted this laptop. Its beautiful, and powerful and not very expensive. I'm sure about trying my chance for third time 😭
Andrew, between the HP Envy 15 and the Dell XPS 17, which one would you take if is just mainly for retouching pictures? I like the Dell's big screen, but the lack of USB-A ports is an issue. I need the ports for my mouse, external hard drives as well as CFexpress Type B card reader. I am not really familiar with Thunderbolt. Is that the trend going forward and you buy a Thunderbolt dock for all your connections?
I got this laptop with the RTX 3060 and with Windows 11. Be aware of the fact that the RTX video card adapter is only enabled through HDMI on this laptop. When a external display is connected to the USB C thunderbolt connector it uses the basic Intel display adapter and not the RTX adapter. That prevents from being able to plug a VR Headset like the Oculus Quest 2 or Rift S on this laptop. A VR headset needs the high video card to work on USB C port because HDMI does not have enough bandwidth. I dont know if it is a limitation of that HP laptop or a problem with Windows 11 not optimized yet for this. I have a Lenovo Legion 7 with an RTX 2080 and Windows 10 and my Oculus Rift S headset works perfectly through USB C
Really like the look of the laptop. Got a good deal on the 3060 11th gen in 2022 slightly over $1300. Removed the stupid HP command center that crippled internet speed and performance. vBios mod a ton out of this laptop. Wrote myself a max fan control software using RW everything and notebook fan control to replace command center. Now my envy 15 is running at 110W TGP (from 80W stock) or 70W max CPU TDP. With gpu top of at around 80C. CPU peak at 95-97C. Sooo thin sooo cool. Battery is awesome. Gaming is good. Overall awesome hardware and thermal. But terrible software control. Will need to dig in deep to unleash the full potential of this baby. Only thing to make the laptop perfect is USB c charging. Then it is the perfect laptop for everything at this price range literally...
I know this is an old message but anyone know where I can get more info on modding the vbios? I absolutely love this laptop with 3060 and oled but I can tell the gpu running super cool around 70C can likely go much higher.
I'm getting tired of every manufacturer making a boring silver laptop trying to be a MacBook Pro. Even a generic black laptop looks better. Especially the Lenovo soft touch or the top-of-the-line carbon fiber like Dell XPS. I don't want a shiny silver generic Ultrabook, give us some carbon fiber and other color options!
I have the 2019 HP Envy 15...I love it! Now that travel will be possible again I am looking for a more portable solution. Thinking on the new MS Surface lineup but would love to wait until you review the Surface Studio and Surface Pro 8. Keep up the great work...Love your videos!
Simple.. if you like to use your computer hard till it gets destroyed get the Dell.. if you are a bit mor careful with your electronics Envy is the way to go.
I was really looking forward to owning this computer. Sadly they told me that my computer wouldn't be built until December when I ordered it in August.
@@Roughdog86 exactly I spec'd out a XPS 15 (which is what I initially wanted) and after them telling me it was going to be an additional month wait, I opted for the refurbished one (and saved myself money in the process)
I've got the 3060RtX and 32 GB ram version ..... How long could i play valorant / csgo without it starting to overheat and damage hardware . (Also can I connect an external monitor to this laptop)
My biggest complaint about HP is that their website is a cluttered mess up way too many SKU's, too many disparate models, and their configurator is a general mess. Most of them don't allow configuration at all. I can't believe that there's supposedly a AAA vendor and yet they can't get their Online Marketplace together to not be such a cluttered mess. I think Lenovo is the best in the business right now for easy-to-navigate configurators, and the ability to minimize categories and to allow for maximum customization and upgrade options. Dell is way over simplified but it's easy to navigate. HP is a hot mess
Agree about the messy part, but you must be doing something wrong with SKU selection. HP is the _only_ laptop manufacturer with full custom configurations available on their consumer and business laptops. They have the "CUSTOMIZE & BUY" button from cheap Pavilions all the way up to ZBooks. No other OEM offers as much customization as HP does.
I get to know everything to know about a laptop. A suggestion, could you reconsider how you present the specs section. The visual and the audio is different, hard to follow. But otherwise a great review.
Few months ago I ordered a HP Fury 17 and was told delivery would be within 2 weeks at latest. Placed order and 2 days later told it would be 4 weeks. A week later I was told it would be 8 weeks. Couldn't stand all the pissing around so cancelled and bought a higher spec and slightly more expensive XPS 17 and it was delivered within 2 weeks. On HP UK website so many (most) of the laptops I was looking at were marked 'Currently Unavailable'. They have a big problem with their supply chain and need to step up their game. Found HP UK website a bit of a mess. Dell leave them miles behind when it comes to a clear website, model availability, customisation and delivery times.
i think gray is generous, this mf is SILVER i just ordered mine a few days ago and i feel like thats going to be my biggest issue with it. is what it is
At the first time I saw this laptop, I thought this would be my next laptop but absence of usb c charge means hard no go for me. Carrying charger brick doesn't make fun.
thank you Andrew for this heavy informative review I would say you helped my alot to take a break of thinking before taking this deal , i like to ask you some issue if you don't mind 1) I am an architect so i work with heavy duty softwares like lumion and 3D max so i need strong CPU & GPU in this laptop I find it very well and efficient but I am worry about the heating becase I found i9 10th gen and RTX 2060 so do you advice it for me 2) about the battery life is it can deal with 4 hrs with heavy job? 3) big love from Iraq to you
Hi, I have the 2020 model with 10750H processor and 2060 MaxQ graphics and I can tell you that battery life is pretty bad - even just editing code and watching TH-cam videos I rarely get more than 3hrs, though I do run it mostly in Performance full power mode. Even on a battery saver mode I doubt it will get more than 4-hrs in graphics intensive applications, and probably less than 2hrs if you're rendering in 3D Max or similar (I render in Blender). Also all that while performance drops by a lot in battery mode. Now when plugged-in this laptop is one of the best you can get - after some optimization I got top-10 scores in Timespy benchmark for example.
Uhh could you reply to my previous comment (hoow long I can play csgo/valorant without having to worry about overheating and damage + can I connect external monitor ) ..?
Nice PC. Webcam was above average for a 720p mediocre class webcam. Microphones sounded good. Like the selection of ports. Agree with you on HP's description of ports whether they are Thunderbolt or not. If you remember about a year ago they did the same thing with the Spectre line where on some models they included one thunderbolt port and on others two without clarifying this on their description of the PC. HP needs to do a better job on this. Regarding the keyboard it would be nice if they included a full size numpad. As far as display goes it is excellent. I know you prefer a 16x10 ratio but if you buy and use these models with a 16x9 ratio most people using this will get used to it pretty fast and will not notice the difference. Like the easy access to the insides and upgradeability on this. One question is, is the wifi card upgradeable? Overall an excellent PC for the price. Great review as always.
The Envy I bought a few years ago gets so hot from the CPU and GPU that it slows to a crawl and now even when sitting on a desk fan it’s slow as shit. Forget ever buying another HP.
I had HP Envy 17T 2021 Model this model is really loud. HP tried to fix 3 times but at the end it still continuing. HP agreed to take the laptop back after 6 months
I have the 15" and under windows it kicks on from time to time.. I'm running Linux 100% on it and the fan never runs when using normally. One thing o don't like about this laptop is te adapter that on can get very hot! I bought a 90 watt version from hp. That one is mutch cooler but also strange enough slower.
Why do manufacturers sell soldered memory laptops?? So rude and cheap of them. Let us pay for the option to upgrade later! Everyone should be selling matte displays as well.
@@BlackCeII Glossy NOT Glare, different words. There are lots of glossy displays with Anti-glare finish, like iPads, MacBooks, Dell XPS etc. I dislike Matte finish because it makes the text and images look grainy, reduces sharpness and contrast, and often creates a "blooming effect" under LED/sunlight making a device unusable in bright environments.
@@mini9503 no, glossy = glare, on anything other than a dark room. Its basic physics of lumens and reflection. You are right it's some displays with Matt screens equal of blurring effect, but that's not necessarily always the case. I can't remember what I saw her recently that was anti-glare and yet no blurring at all. The materials technology is there, the manufacturers are just trying to maximize their profit. I don't think that many people are using laptops outside, that being said, we've all had to adjust the laptop indoors because it's catching a lamp glare on overhead light reflection.
@@BlackCeII NO, glossy =/= glare. Matte finish can be reflective and have glare as well if they're cheaply. Glossy Anti-Glare is less common because it takes lots of skill and money to produce them. You find them on the most high-end devices only.
Can anyone answer me this: Will the 150W HP charger work in place of the 200W if I want a smaller charger for travel? I'm trying to find a compermise for no charging with thunderbolt available. I have the i7 3060 variant.
I wish in the future Lenovo use Amoled display like this HP. I've been using Lenovo for many years already and kindly stick with it coz of keyboard and battery life.

Hp should make a 16inch version of the envy series like they are doing with the spectre series with the corei9 processor and more colour options.

There are lots of glossy displays with Anti-glare finish, like iPads, MacBooks, Dell XPS etc. I dislike Matte finish because it makes the text and images look grainy, reduces sharpness and contrast, and often creates a "blooming effect" under LED/sunlight making a device unusable in bright environments.
@@mini9503 no, glossy = glare, on anything other than a dark room. Its basic physics of lumens and reflection.
You are right it's some displays with Matt screens equal of blurring effect, but that's not necessarily always the case. I can't remember what I saw her recently that was anti-glare and yet no blurring at all. The materials technology is there, the manufacturers are just trying to maximize their profit. I don't think that many people are using laptops outside, that being said, we've all had to adjust the laptop indoors because it's catching a lamp glare on overhead light reflection.
@@BlackCeII NO, glossy =/= glare. Matte finish can be reflective and have glare as well if they're cheaply.
Glossy Anti-Glare is less common because it takes lots of skill and money to produce them. You find them on the most high-end devices only.
Can anyone answer me this: Will the 150W HP charger work in place of the 200W if I want a smaller charger for travel? I'm trying to find a compermise for no charging with thunderbolt available. I have the i7 3060 variant.
Hey bro, you make some great videos. 👍
I added a second SSD to the empty slot. It doesn't show up in the bios or Disk management. Any idea anyone? Thanks
I wish in the future Lenovo use Amoled display like this HP. I've been using Lenovo for many years already and kindly stick with it coz of keyboard and battery life.
Anyone know how much FPS this Envy Oled can handle??
Was literally just looking at this computer spec'd the exact same way you had it. Perfect timing! Haha.
Nice!
Do you have any idea what is the TGP of the 3060 card and if it supports thunder bolt 4 ?

I'll buy hp envy if they make a black version of the 15 or even 14. That's why I'm using a razer blade 15.Loving it!
