What do you guys think of the HP Spectre X360? Also, if you missed it I released my top picks for the Best Back to School Laptops of 2022, which you can find here - th-cam.com/video/f4AKI31M0dQ/w-d-xo.html
Got this laptop 2 days ago for school. Coming from a 5+ year MAC user, this HP has been a dream! Super fast, amazing display, amazing webcam, the battery isn’t as good as the MacBook Air but it’s more than enough for my use case. Got it from Best Buy for $1250 or $500 off. Highly satisfied with my purchase!! *Edit: Feel free to ask questions! Still using this as my daily laptop till this day
@@speedster4647 I still love it. No heating issues. It gets occasionally warm when I dock it to multiple displays while having multiple windows open but never anything super hot. No lag, still runs super smooth. Still one of my favorite tech purchases of the year!
I remember the Spectre X360 being.... not ugly but not particularly pleasing to look at. I love where they are going with the designs nowadays. Great video, as always.
Mine just died sadly. Served me great but something went wrong in changing the battery, which had swollen up. I live in a country with high temperatures most of the year so it's not uncommon for this to happen with laptops. Anyway, going to get my office to get this one for me since I have that option
Very nice laptop. The webcam is superb. But I would've liked to have seen a more aligned Intel Evo sticker for that extra boost in performance. Maybe next year.
spectre x360 from 2018 still going strong here. battery life is also still at at least 8 hours of normal use without charging. can get a little hot sometimes though
I bought a 360 Spectre on Christmas 2016, I’m amazed it still works in May 2023. The battery does goes after 3 years and loses its charge. I changed the battery and it lasts another 3 years.
I have the HP Spectre x360 14 2021 model. (gen before this). And it's been a dream to use. Great screen with 3:2 aspect ratio for more content, keyboard is excellent, battery life lasts all day and performance is very good for an ultra light laptop. Even with the open keyboard design I found no dust or dirt ever entering the keyboard and my model has a full size USB port instead of one with a flap. My only complaints with this laptop, trackpad is okay but not amazing, camera quality is poor but they have definitely improved that and the speakers don't sound the best out the box. You need to up the bass and treble on the equalizer on the Bang and Olufsen software. Also using Dolby Access with Atmos helps a lot. When using on bed with a charger, the laptop can get very hot and the fans will kick in almost immediately. But apart from these small complaints, it has been a very reliable and dependable laptop for school and leisure.
I have the previous gen, too (OLED) version, and it’s one of the best laptops I’ve used over 28 years in the tech industry! The battery life suffers with that OLED screen and I wish the speakers were a bit louder, but it’s a phenomenal laptop.
@@tdubman I have the 2020 model, & although the OLED display does use more power it's the best display i've seen on a laptop. I was considering moving to an ASUS X13 Flow for the GPU horsepower, but I can't bring myself to give up the OLED display.
I have the late 2020 Spectre X360 (13.3" screen, i7 cpu, 16GB Ram, 512GB SSD). I like it in most ways, but it has what I consider to be a very anger-inducing flaw: the keyboard backlight is hard coded to turn off after about 10 seconds. There are absolutely NO settings in BIOS or Windows to fix it. It cannot be fixed. HP has been notified of the error by dozens of users for years and has utterly failed to address it with a simple BIOS fix (which an engineering CO-OP could do in an afternoon). This flaw sounds minor, but frequently and annoyingly impacts my workflow if I'm using the laptop in any location other than a very well-lit room.
@@patrickdowden my laptop has the option in the bios to turn the backlight keyboard off every 30 seconds of inactivity. 2 minutes or never. Maybe try updating ur bios and looking for the setting
@@patrickdowden In the 2021 version, they increased it to 30 seconds...there's also a setting in the BIOS to change it, but I don't remember what options it has. So at least they took the feedback to improve later versions. I always just press the lower left Ctrl key to get it to come back on without actually accidentally typing something.
After 6 months of usage, the most disadvantage is the battery running away so fast maybe last for maximum 6hr working from 100% to 20%. I am really very upset.
0:47 If anyone is wondering if it's an issue, I wildcamped some 100 nights using this laptop for movies and no dust or grime there. This laptop is extremely durable
I still think the 2020 13" is the pinnacle of x360. They got the corners right. Material choices and finish never got better. Battery does the all-day dance. Mid tier spec refurbs are cheap af.
I have the 2020 version as well... but there is a design flaw where the screen gets scratched by the keyboard. I wonder if they solved it with the newer versions
@@georgehaddad9771 mm, now that you mention it, the two front bumpers have collapsed into the keyboard tray. I’m not too worried about it as this is a technician laptop for me. It gets chucked around a lot and has dents and dings. But worth noting for a casual buyer for sure.
I had an older HP Spectre that I loved and used until the proverbial wheels fell off. After many years with HP, I made the mistake of switching to another brand 3 years ago (I'll chalk it up to a dumb COVID-induced decision). Thanks for the insightful review. I'm looking forward to going back to HP in 2024.
Typing this on my 2017 Spectre! It has done me very well throughout the years. But like all laptops, it's starting to show it's age especially with it's 30 minute battery life. So I'm now looking for a new one and this looks great.
Why did HP remove the right ctrl key? Couldn't they find a better place for a fingerprint scanner? I use the right ctrl key and this is a deal breaker for me.
Had an HP before. Had to remap a function key on the furthest right side to Ctrl using MS Powertoys. Such a weird decision... It's almost like laptop designers and engineers don't ever use Ctrl keyboard shortcuts or somthing.
Hey! I love how this laptop looks , Would anybody recommend it to me or is it just a waste of money ?! Note: I'll be using it for for studying and watching videos as the phone screen is just not large enough to be safe on my eyesight UPDATE: I've just got this laptop and it is absolutely amazing and here i am telling anyone hesitating to buy it DONT HESITATE JUST GO FOR IT ✨
Have been patiently waiting for this laptop to be released in the UK but at the same time, the Lenovo Yoga 7 Pro X with an AMD chip is fast becoming a potential option (even though it ships in 5-6 weeks). Keep up the great work!
I've been eyeballing the Lenovo 7 Pro X with the 32gb ram, 1tb storage and the Ryzen 9... It's such a good all arounder if you aren't expecting anything special for gaming. 😍
@@herb414 I've bit the bullet and actually gone for the Yoga 7 Gen 7, Ryzen 7, 16GB RAM, OLED screen with several discounts on top of the price and in the Dark Teal colour. Frees up some cash to get a nice monitor and mechanical keyboard! There's been issues with keeping these 12th Gen chips cool so I'm going with Ryzen this time. Have to wait 6 weeks to ship though!
@@gbh2478 can I ask how much you ended up spending? I can get the Ryzen 9, 1tb, 32gb with the 120hz IPS around $1530 before tax. Possibly closer to $1200 if I wait for a sale.
@@herb414 I spent under £1200, which is like $1400 but I also got a couple of extras like the e-pen and fingerprint scanner. I don't game (and the Gen 7 maxes out at Ryzen 7 anyway) but I preferred the OLED screen if I'm using in tablet mode. I'm planning to hook it up to a monitor most of the time anyway, so not worried there. In the UK, the spectre will probably start at around £300 more expensive so it doesn't make sense to me when I can get exactly what I want and avoid any heating/fan issues with these 12 Gen chips.
@@gbh2478 seems like a better buy if you want OLED for sure. My mom has the 7i slim 14" with the 11th gen I7 in it and the IPS display and I love "borrowing" it. No overheating issues but I've heard 12th gen is a bit hotter. I think it's smart to go Ryzen on the thin and light maxhines, especially if you care about long battery life. My mom got hers for $850 USD with the 16gb and the 1tb. Felt like she stole it!
Looking at laptops that are light, durable, wont overheat with the 12th gen cpus which is an issue with others like the xps and x1. Also, gorgeous and premium. Looking at HP right now since Dell and Lenovo seem to be having a lot of issues.
Been waiting for this review since the back to school video and I still feel slightly indecisive between this and the yoga 9i. What would make someone lean one way or the other?
I'd say the yoga 9i is better (better speakers, better aspect ratio, better performance) however it does have a big downside that the keyboard is off center. This means if you use different keyboards it's annoying to switch back to the laptops keyboard. Also I don't think the yoga 9i has anti-reflective coating on the screen but not sure.
Been waiting for this video for a long time and its really good! Also will you review the rest of the refurbished hp laptops, those being the x360 13, envy 16, and x360 17?
I hope you can review the HP Envy 2-in-1 since I plan to buy that one and I read they have lots of ports which includes a full sd card reader which is rare nowadays.
On sale at Best Buy today I purchased the 13th gen Spectre x360 16" for 2023 (16-F2013dx) it has the i7-13700H with 512gb SSD, 16gb ram, 3K+ IPS LED display with Iris xe graphics and a 5mp camera. But I can't find any reviews on it. Not sure if it's a good one? What are your thoughts please?
My spectre bought in 2015 still run even with curved keyboard. Now there seems to be starting to fall apart. White boxes anywhere so i think I am going to buy a new one to replace my 7 yr spectre. Thinking of buying this or lenovo yoga 9i i7. I am leaning towards this Spectre as i am a very happy customer. During the 7 yr period office laptop had to be replaced twice (dell and lenovo) while my personal laptop HP spectre still runs strong (the white box and strange noises only appear past month)
I've got down firing speakers on my ASUS VivoBook and they are the one great flaw. Streaming content while the laptop is on a soft surface like a bed spread just doesn't work well.
Hp has done an excellent 👍🏻 job. It's a very well built machine. You are on point. Win 11 is also very good 👍🏻. SO anyone who wants the experience of both tablet and laptop, go for it. Safe choice 😁. Thanks 👍🏻🙏🏻👍🏻
Hi Matthew I am from INDIA looking for A Laptop under 90k for Office and Personal Use. Specifications > RAM =16GB , Screen Size= 13 or 14 Inch , Processor = Intel EVO or 12 GEN Processor Touch Screen Display is Avoided. Please Suggest me a Laptop with Good Performance and Battery Life
@@MatthewMoniz we use coopasi program for our class . Which takes a lot of resource and heats up the laptop . I used M1 air surprisingly no issue till now regarding heating
@@tdubman yes tge quiet mode is fine , but my university work involves wirking with demanding apps such as coopasi and quiet mode is not suitable there
Love your enthusiasm, but I have noticed a few thingh: It is not a 2 in 1 laptop and also the ports are USB-C, not thunderbolt, latency is high, not low, it did crush the M2 macbook air in the Cinebench single thread
Nice presentation, which c-port i can use for charging , the one at the corner or the other close to the micro card reader slot ? abd what is a thunder bolt
How is the palm rejection when taking notes on this device? Thinking of telling my mom to buy this as she needs a great laptop for writing and editing documents, browsing the web, and throwing in her purse. She uses the touch screen and stylus on her now 6 year old Surface all the time, and needs something with great palm rejection
I`m Looking forward to buy this Laptop in the next months. Does it have 90Hz Display? You sad it hase some lag to the drawing and I want to use it for Mikrosoft One Note(writing) and Word. is it enough for that? I would love to hear your opinion.
Can you please review Samsung Galaxy Book 2 pro 360 and compare it with the other's Since Samsung is trying to push it's ecosystem and is also offering great deals it might be a reason for many Samsung users buying it
Still thinking better this one or yoga 9i. In term of battery life which one is better? 32Gb DDR4 in this HP VS 16Gb in Yoga 9i, is it affected much? Maybe somene can give insight.
Don't test the inking experience on the Whiteboard app, I found that the latency is slower than OneNote. I also found the latency to be better in Linux.
Wondering if the processor would be strong enough for trading charts, I often have many open with trading exchanges, I have a 2017 Spectre but is overheating and looking to upgrade
very good! I want to buy and customize with the most advanced configuration the 13 inch but the HP website does not have the black color with golden or half tan details, can you tell me why? the color NightBlack is all black right?
I prefer Lenovo Yoga 7 14 AMD with Ryzen 6800U processor and bigger 71 Wh battery, with which you get almost 50% better battery life compared to the Spectre x360 13.5 A crucial detail reviewers seem to miss is that the Spectre x360 comes with older "Samusng Gen 2" panel, unlike every other OLED laptop in 2022 that uses Gen 3. Gen 2 OLED has an issue where color-accuracy would change when changing the display's brightness which is a MAJOR downside at this price.
but i feel like you can never compare a 2 in 1 to a regular laptop, regardless of whether the screen can go 180 because some people just need the tablet mode
@@lars2894 oh really? i just thought it was the like the slim 7 and i dont think the screen can go all the way back. can you give me the model number to check it out? thanks
I have a Zenbook 14X Space Edition with 2.8K 90Hz OLED and I can notice the colors change only at really low brightness levels. How can I tell if mine is gen 2 or gen 3?
I’m not sure if you will see this but, does it handle good in video games. I will be using this for classwork but I don’t want to use it just for that, so my main question can it handle video games?
I really like lenovos full rounded corners i wish hp did that instead of tapering at the front.A high refresh rate oled panel with dolby vision HDR,better speakers and thinner bezels would have been a nice upgrade.
Will this be an optimal choice for coding for college students? I am talking about the integrated iris Xe graphics version cuz that's the only config available in my region.
Please help me I am having issues with my own it didn't show tablet mode and when I flipped it to back the screen went black and didn't work as a tablet please what do I do?
I just bought the Spectre 16 (the blue one u mention) at Best Buy for that sale price 2 days ago…seems fantastic so far. The i7-12700H processor is fantastic. Some will miss dedicated graphics, but it will suit my needs.
Do you have an option to compare the force to click on keyboard button on this vs hp aero 13? I found aero to have way too much force required but literally no one on internet mentions that.
@@MatthewMoniz the feedback was fine it just needed lots of force compared to other laptops i used. Its hard to say its a unit problem because that would have difference between the keys. I dont think its possible to have an issue with keyboard that consistent to a point where each key behaves the same. Maybe im just picky that i find it an issue but it was noticable as my wife said the same and she usually doesnt care about these things at all.

Hp has done an excellent 👍🏻 job. It's a very well built machine. You are on point. Win 11 is also very good 👍🏻. SO anyone who wants the experience of both tablet and laptop, go for it. Safe choice 😁. Thanks 👍🏻🙏🏻👍🏻
Appreciate you mentioning the PWM info.
Hi Matthew, please make a 12-Gen Envy x360 2 in 1 video as well!
Hi Matthew
I am from INDIA looking for A Laptop under 90k for Office and Personal Use.
Specifications > RAM =16GB , Screen Size= 13 or 14 Inch , Processor = Intel EVO or 12 GEN Processor
Touch Screen Display is Avoided.
Please Suggest me a Laptop with Good Performance and Battery Life
My friend has 2021 hp spectre 360, it looks fabulous but the fan noise is bad . He often doesn’twork with it in class just because of it .
Why doesn't he just put it on quiet mode? It's below 40db
@@MatthewMoniz we use coopasi program for our class . Which takes a lot of resource and heats up the laptop . I used M1 air surprisingly no issue till now regarding heating
I use the 2021 version of this every day, and in quiet mode (using HP Command Center) I rarely hear fans.
@@tdubman yes tge quiet mode is fine , but my university work involves wirking with demanding apps such as coopasi and quiet mode is not suitable there
There is no fan noise when you put it on anything lower than high performance.
So why would your "friend" have it on high performance in a class?
My new laptop. Love it. Amazing stuff
U can a keyboard and thats a unique design! Great idea bro
Love your enthusiasm, but I have noticed a few thingh: It is not a 2 in 1 laptop and also the ports are USB-C, not thunderbolt, latency is high, not low, it did crush the M2 macbook air in the Cinebench single thread
Hey Florin the ports are in fact thunderbolt 4 USB-TypeC and it's a 2-in-1 or if you prefer a convertible. Thanks for watching !
Nice presentation, which c-port i can use for charging , the one at the corner or the other close to the micro card reader slot ? abd what is a thunder bolt
Is it really bad for media lovers..cause i love it more than yoga 9i???
How is the palm rejection when taking notes on this device? Thinking of telling my mom to buy this as she needs a great laptop for writing and editing documents, browsing the web, and throwing in her purse. She uses the touch screen and stylus on her now 6 year old Surface all the time, and needs something with great palm rejection
The MacBook speakers are phenomenal. No other tablet or laptop is able to match them yet? Is it a patent issue?
I`m Looking forward to buy this Laptop in the next months. Does it have 90Hz Display? You sad it hase some lag to the drawing and I want to use it for Mikrosoft One Note(writing) and Word. is it enough for that? I would love to hear your opinion.
So what is the Best laptop for Video Editing, High Performance, and Gaming?
great review, you opinion between lenovo yoga slim 7 prox and HP Spectre X360 ? for photo editing ?
Can you please review Samsung Galaxy Book 2 pro 360 and compare it with the other's
Since Samsung is trying to push it's ecosystem and is also offering great deals it might be a reason for many Samsung users buying it
HP Spectre Vs HP Z Book Firefly. With Windows Pro and 13th Gen, both cost about the same. The latter is said to be studier. Your views?
Still thinking better this one or yoga 9i.
In term of battery life which one is better?
32Gb DDR4 in this HP VS 16Gb in Yoga 9i, is it affected much?
Maybe somene can give insight.
Can you make one more video about ho pavilion plus.
I certainly can with one coming tomorrow :P
That headphone jack placement is shocking
Don't test the inking experience on the Whiteboard app, I found that the latency is slower than OneNote. I also found the latency to be better in Linux.
Wondering if the processor would be strong enough for trading charts, I often have many open with trading exchanges, I have a 2017 Spectre but is overheating and looking to upgrade
very good! I want to buy and customize with the most advanced configuration the 13 inch but the HP website does not have the black color with golden or half tan details, can you tell me why? the color NightBlack is all black right?
Please Review the new 2022 Asus Zenbook Pro Flip! I feel like it is a direct competitor at a much lower price!
I prefer Lenovo Yoga 7 14 AMD with Ryzen 6800U processor and bigger 71 Wh battery, with which you get almost 50% better battery life compared to the Spectre x360 13.5
A crucial detail reviewers seem to miss is that the Spectre x360 comes with older "Samusng Gen 2" panel, unlike every other OLED laptop in 2022 that uses Gen 3. Gen 2 OLED has an issue where color-accuracy would change when changing the display's brightness which is a MAJOR downside at this price.
but i feel like you can never compare a 2 in 1 to a regular laptop, regardless of whether the screen can go 180 because some people just need the tablet mode
@@lars2894 oh really? i just thought it was the like the slim 7 and i dont think the screen can go all the way back. can you give me the model number to check it out? thanks
I have a Zenbook 14X Space Edition with 2.8K 90Hz OLED and I can notice the colors change only at really low brightness levels. How can I tell if mine is gen 2 or gen 3?
@@omegamalkior1874 2.8K resolutions are all Gen 3! What you're seeing at very low brightness levels is probably PWM flickering
@@lars2894 the thing is that at minimum brightness which is “0%”the colors don’t look weird. It’s only from 10-30% is where they change.
Unfortunately, the 16" version hasn't the same 3:2 screen ration...it would have been my choice
It's out of stock in my country :(
I’m not sure if you will see this but, does it handle good in video games. I will be using this for classwork but I don’t want to use it just for that, so my main question can it handle video games?
I really like lenovos full rounded corners i wish hp did that instead of tapering at the front.A high refresh rate oled panel with dolby vision HDR,better speakers and thinner bezels would have been a nice upgrade.
that would increase the price also
I just LOVE how 16:9 wasn't even mentioned. This is how things should be.
he said it was 3:2 at 4:55
This laptop was rs 1(0.013 dollars) yesterday on Amazon india 😂 for some time , i missed it 🙃
Where did you get that gorgeous wallpaper? Was it on the laptop by default?
No it's a hp wallpaper. Just do a search for HP spectre wallpaper it should pop up
I purchased the baby!!! GORGEOUS!!
Keep it up sir keep it up. Watching from India. Sir i don't know why but i love hp speaker more. Sir can you please give a demo of yoga 9i speakers??
Thanks and welcome
My neighbour get the old I mean 2020 model.
It's good working
I give this computer a 10/10 it is the best computer I have ever used!
Will this be an optimal choice for coding for college students? I am talking about the integrated iris Xe graphics version cuz that's the only config available in my region.
Please help me I am having issues with my own it didn't show tablet mode and when I flipped it to back the screen went black and didn't work as a tablet please what do I do?
Would you choose this over the asus zenbook pro duo?
Too beautiful? how is it compared to the new Thinkpad z-series?
Is it good for Architecture and programming?¿
I’m debating between the 16” 7i 2.5k for $900 or the blue one of these for $1150 (both currently on sale at Beat Buy U.S.)
👆👆🅷🅸🆃 🅼🅴 🆄🅿🎁🎁
Can you share the link for the HP Spectre? I can seem the find the deal.
I just bought the Spectre 16 (the blue one u mention) at Best Buy for that sale price 2 days ago…seems fantastic so far. The i7-12700H processor is fantastic. Some will miss dedicated graphics, but it will suit my needs.
Is this better than the one which comes with NVIDIA??
WOW, that screen is super glossy and reflective. Looks like a mirror in this video.
ASUS Zenbook 14 Flip OLED or HP Specture X 360 (2 in 1)?
Don't like the fact that the keyboard is not protected from dust and other debris when closed.
Was this review model a 13.5 or 14?
i want to buy this laptop to program on it, webdesign. but also use a vm to use linux and do some programming there. is this laptop okay for this?
i am also looking for this laptop for the same usage
Can we use this as a tablet with an other laptop? (Not a monitor, but a laptop)
Is this laptop good for architecture??
Hi there .. wondering if I can upgrade the RAM to 32 GB ?
hi can you suggest a pen for this laptop that is good for both note taking and drawing
Do you have an option to compare the force to click on keyboard button on this vs hp aero 13? I found aero to have way too much force required but literally no one on internet mentions that.
Really? Maybe its an issue with your unit. Aero 13 keys were fine and probably why you haven't heard anyone on the internet mention it.
@@MatthewMoniz the feedback was fine it just needed lots of force compared to other laptops i used. Its hard to say its a unit problem because that would have difference between the keys. I dont think its possible to have an issue with keyboard that consistent to a point where each key behaves the same. Maybe im just picky that i find it an issue but it was noticable as my wife said the same and she usually doesnt care about these things at all.
i really dislike the rounded edges. Looks like the Yoga 9i, which also has rounded edges and looks old-fashioned.
Refresh rate?
60
@@MatthewMoniz damn! Not again😩
Do we get single type-C to HDMI converter or type-C to port Hub out of the box?
every year top laptop beautiful for him and forget obvious problem
Are there any student discounts on HP for this laptop?
what about samsung galaxy book pro2. It also comes with same processor.
i like rog flow x13, can do all of that and more
