2017 HP Spectre x360 15" Intel 8th Gen Review

- Lisa Gade reviews the late 2017 edition of the HP Spectre x360 with a 15.6” 4K IPS display supporting N-Trig pen and touch, Intel 8th generation 15 watt U series CPUs and NVIDIA MX150 2GB GDDR5 dedicated graphics. The 15” x360 looks identical to last year’s model, and the two things that changed- CPU and GPU are very significant. The CPU is 40% faster thanks to Intel’s doubling cores to 4 in the 8th gen, and NVIDIA’s graphics are roughly 30% faster than last year’s 940MX.
The 2kg / 4.42 lb. laptop is clad in a striking two tone dark ash silver and copper metal casing and it has a backlit keyboard and large trackpad. It has two RAM slots and our model has 16GB DDR4 RAM, a 512GB PCIe NVMe SSD, Intel 8265AC WiFi with Bluetooth 4.2 and Thunderbolt 3.

PlantBasedCloud stop lying . this channel not great .
+PEACE AND LOVE Yeah... You're right.. 😆😝
YES, I've waited so long for this review!Thanks Lisa,you and your channel are both awesome!
It's your reviews that help me make my decisions as to what I should buy as you give enough usable information. And yes your shirts are always interesting.
YES I’VE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS REVIEW
I love Lisa's reviews. They're very structured, clear and concise. Helps with my decision a lot.
Lisa's T-shirts are awesome too.
6:20 Best part: the ram slots are real!! Thank you for showing us that! HP has improved on this :)
Jason Liu or Lisa, can you confirm that max ram is 32gb for this specific model? I asked hp and they claimed that max is 16 instead :(
Are these RAM soldered on motherboard or upgradable up to max 32 GB?
I've waited so long for this review! Thank you Lisa!
Best tech review channel on youtube. Thank you for your quality and unbiased reviews!
Thanks a lot for this video Lisa. Eagerly Waiting for the review of the 13 inch model as well !!!
Thanks for the advice!!! The HP 15 8th Gen is great. I really like the pen you recommend.
Thank you for finally doing this review!!! You have the best reviews!
Thanks for the great review Lisa! Just bought one of these last night so I can get away from sitting at my desk/Cintiq constantly. Picked up the Bamboo Ink as well based on your recommendation. Thanks again!
Excellent review! Thanks for making this, I had been waiting to purchase one of these and you've answered all my questions.
Have a 13" ver loaded in my cart. Waiting to See Lisa's review on it first. Great reviewer.
Thank you so much Lisa, one of the best reviews I’ve seen.
i see your b roll quality has improved greatly, keep up the good work!)
Your shirt is literally my life. Great review!
(I nearly mistook it for the last 15-inch X360 vid haha)
Just subscribed. Thank you so much for all your tech reviews. I think I've decided on the HP Spectre 15 in. This was the vid that clinched it.
Love how you open the back and go in detail.
Thanks for popping off the bottom cover and showing the SSD, radio, ram slots.
Thanks for opening it up and showing the innards!
Thanks Lisa, always love your videos, and ordered one of these just yesterday morning. I knew you were a fan of the previous model, so went ahead and went with the updated version hoping it would be even better. Looks like it is! Unfortunately, it's on backorder, so going to have a wait a bit; they said maybe shipping by Friday. Watched a ton of your videos before deciding. Thank you!
Best reviews. Always very informative and to the point. Much appreciated.
That shirt is so accurate
Great review Lisa. I'm really looking forward to seeing you review the 13" version - I hope you'll make direct comparisons between the two sizes in that video.
love your reviews! thanks for always talking about the artist things for these :)
Love the computer review and your t-shirt, Lisa ❤️👍🏻
Hi Lisa! Just gonna fangirl over here for a second...I bought this device after endless research and your review was the final deciding factor. I love it as well. You're so knowledgeable and natural in front of the camera that you inspired me to put my geeky self out there and start my own channel and make my first unboxing & review video! You're an inspiration to other tech loving women! So thank you and keep it up!
Hi, im from Brazil and your video is the only one i found about this new x360 model.
Thanks and sorry for my bad english.
Subscribing now :)
A lovely review as always!
Great review as always Lisa! Will you do a comparison between this and the Yoga 920?
Thanks Lisa, love your reviews!
Awesome! Was waiting for a review on this laptop tnx 👌
Very detailed review. Thank you!
great Review again Lisa, Thank you :)
Hey thanks for actually listing everything that this laptop has in the description, been trying to find out for a hour if it has a 4k screen or not. Nobody says if it is or not when they review it, also the 360x line all look the same so it's difficult to tell the one in the review is the one I'm looking at in person.
Thanks for another informative review.
Thank you for a very informative and thorough review! I've been teetering on my decision of a new laptop to replace my 5-year-old Samsung. These videos help make the decision much easier!
Well done Lisa, I always enjoy hearing your opinions, you're the best
This was a great review, I also love the shirt!!!
I just bought the spectre 2 months ago too. Why couldn't the 8th have come out before university started 😭😭😭. It truly is a nice machine. Great review as usual thought Lisa.
Looks to me, from a commercial standpoint, HP picked the ideal timeslot, i.e. after the studentsbuyseason & prior to the endofyearbuyseason.
I nevertheless do concur with yout thoughts&feelings, however. :_[ hYlkeW
On the other hand, I don't care much for your taste of food: neither ''Pizza'' nor ''Bagel'', be they ''frozen'' a/o otherwise. :--] hYlkeW
Sameeeeeeee! I had mine laptop stolen a couple months ago and just bought my 7th gen :'( best computer I've ever used but damn lol
Wow, fantastic review! Thanks!
My next laptop! Thanks for the review. Saving my pennies to get it now. Looking for light video/photo editing. To me, that’s the best looking 2 in 1 laptop made in my opinion. I’ve had Macs since 2008. But bang for buck, PC is the way to go for me.
Another great review, and a wonderful shirt. :)
Always informative review from you! Why haven't you reviewed hp elitebook x360? How you missed it? Looking eagerly to get it reviewed by you soon!
You're a brilliant reviewer! Thank you!
I fell completely in love with this laptop (whitch i can't afford) but more importantly I fell in love with your t-shirt! Great job! Amazing reviews! Love your channel! Love you!
I always love uncovering the bottom panel to do the internal inspection, checking RAM location which was very helpful !! P.S. The PIE t-shirt was awesome!
absolutely lovely review
Would love for you do do a review of the HP Envy x360 15. There are basically no reviews for this Notebook.
Severo Rivera I was actually in between that one and the one shown in this video, was told that the AMD could handle more than the i7 but it heats up more too, so I went with the Spectre
Nice review as always. Can we have reviews for the HP envy x350 15t slim bezel model and the new dell inspiron 15 2 in one 7573 model with vs video thanks
Mine arrived yesterday, loving it so far, I waited as i know the MX150 was such a good upgrade, then to get the boost from the 8th Gen too. love it
thank you sooo much Lisa for that great review .I just bought a week ago . Please are you sure the RAM could be upgraded to 32????
As a digital artist working in the video game industry looking for a portable powerhouse workstation I've just ordered one of these thanks to your review. You rock, keep up the great work!
Excellent review!
Now if only I could decide if I want a 13" or 15" 2-in-1...
Ken Kobayashi i got the same problem :D...but since the new features (which I was looking forward to get on the 15" model) are only available on the 13", I'll pronbably get that one.
Such a great review Lisa, how much would you say that this CPU would bottleneck a eGPU? I was waiting to get this updated version because it's quad core instead of dual core from last model. Does this version has DDR4? if I'm not mistaken last model had LPDDR3 right?
Perfect review. Bravo!
Hi Lisa, were you able to verify if the HP Spectre x360 actually works with 32GB RAM? Thank you.
It's so beautiful I'm definitely saving up for this
so tempting but the bad feedback with the issues the 15.6 model is having is worrying me.
but by the time i save up and able to afford this thing a newer version would come out anyway lol
I'm 66 years old but feel like an 18 year old (except for my knees.) Your shirt rocks my world! ;)
People like you ROCK
I agree, you rock Susan
Lisa always has the best reviews.
I just have to say, thank you for doing what you do, in the way you do it. It's so nice to see someone that's really knowledgeable about tech that isn't some 19-year-old guy screaming at a camera, talking fast, and using all sorts of hyperbole. All I want are the facts, and that's what you've given. I was debating on getting a new device to replace my aging Surface Pro 3, and it seemed to be coming down to being between the Spectre x360 (13.3" and 15"), the Envy x360 15", the Yoga 720, and the new Surface Pro. Price was the key reason I eliminated the Surface Pro from my options, and I ultimately went with the 8th gen Spectre x360 15" that you featured here. I found your videos (this one and the comparison between it and the Surface Book 2) after I'd already made my decision, but seeing these videos helped me better understand the device and further solidified in my mind that I'd made the right choice. Keep being amazing!
Lisa's reviews are the best ..
Great video and love that tee. Please do a video comparing this to the new Lenovo X1 Yoga.
I would presume you had v-sync on when recording the skyrim video? I am looking for this as an editing/portable workstation/gaming laptop and was wondering if the GPU/CPU combo puts out a generous amount of gaming performance so I wouldn't have to go and buy an external GPU housing and GPU. Thanks. Looking forward to the Microsoft Surface Book 2 review as well!
Yes, G-sync was on.
Cool video. AND t-shirt!
very nice lisa as aways
This is one of the best reviews I've seen.
I've been looking forward to this update. Can't wait for the 13 inch review. On comment re your videos. Could you please change the pictures in the slideshow. Those black bars are killing me... :D Otherwise really loving your stuff. Really useful info.
Hi Lisa, just got this laptop its the 1st serious machine I've bought- $1700 w/ o tax...& no pen ... but I will get it :) . Being 56 yrs. the backlit keyboard 4 me is great ! I'm still learning all the bells and whistles. My goal is to be PODCASTING by the summer of 2018. I'm sure this HP will help. Enjoy the 2017 HOLIDAY SEASON. Thank you, It was a Great review
Great review again! How's the webcam tho?
Hi Lisa, did you experience any freezing with the screen and/or mouse in this newest Spectre? Thanks for the review! It was very helpful!
great review. question. is this still a good laptop for work and running an extra monitor now? in 2020? is there another you would recommend
Beautiful laptop and great review.
always enjoy your objective reviews...i'm looking for 2 in 1 to replace my 10 yr old laptop....so here's hoping we'll see a 'smackdown' against the xps 13 and lenovo 920 (both also w 8th gen processors)....also would love to see a smackdown of the midtier 2 in 1's too, too: dell's inspiron vs hp's pavillion or envy lines (etc) please.
The painting is superb!!
Thanks!
Thank you for this great review. Exactly what I was waiting to see as this is likely my next purchase. I was hoping you'd spend a little time discussing how you feel it works as a tablet, albeit a large one. And since you mentioned the heating base, could you recommend an ideal cooling pad for this machine? Something ideally light and portable to go with the portability of ultrabooks bit still quiet and comfortable and maybe even adjustable for use in bed? This info would be greatly helpful if you find the time. Thanks again.
Hi Lisa, I am so grateful for your awesome review! What do you think of the updates HP just announced for BOB at CES this week? Worth waiting until March to buy, as opposed to purchasing the version in this video? THANKS!
I just purchased mine today, and I Love it!
Thank you so much for the review.
Hi, your reviews are always fun and the Spectre x360 2018 model is in. It looks like they made several changes from the late 2017 model but would like to know what you have to say for it
Thank you Lisa.
Thank you for the review! I feel better buying this one :)
Hey Lisa, great review! Does the motherboard allow you force the CPU to stay at all core boost of 3.7Ghz by increasing CPU wattage limit like in Xiaomi laptops?
Love these reviews! Any chance you could get your hands on the Acer Switch 7 before official launch (before Cyber Monday 😁)?
Been looking forward so much to this review! Do you reckon this would be portable enough for University? Or should you still get 13 inch? The extra workspace which would allow for multiple windows as well as the performance makes it very tempting.
Hey Lisa! Really nice review. Do you have any thoughts on how this stacks up against the Surface Book w/ performance base?
Thank you Lisa for your review, as always they are very informative.
I purchased the Wacom Bamboo Ink pen along with this laptop and found that the smart features of the pen are not supported by this laptop. The rocker button on the base of the pen is not supported at all. I have more pen support in my old Galaxy Note 10 than the Spectre 8th Gen. Hopefully HP will add support in the near future if that is even possible.
Bought it last week with a pen and it’s a joy to use!
Y is your shirt so AWESOMEEEEE! Great review by the way!
Lisa, love your videos and im looking forward for a comparison between HP Spectre x360 15.6" and Microsoft Surface 2 13.5" as they fall in the same price bracket and both are my favourite as of now and would be my future purchase. Cheers :)
You're awesome! Thank you for your videos
Thanks Lisa so much
Hey Lisa, thanks for the great reviews - they are most informative to me!
I´m gonna get a new Laptop/hybrid hopefully in January and right now i got 2 in last round.
I need it for illustrating and graphicdesign stuff like indesign and co on the go...
what do you think about the acer switch 7 black edition? Are you gonna do a review on it? hopefully ;)
So as u could imagine my choice ia betwenn the acer switch 7 black edition and the HP Spectre x360 15-bl102ng.
thank you for answering and smackdowning :D
Just got this Spectre, it's amazing! Although my Spectre has a full keyboard.
Appreciate your reviews, especially with the display breakdowns (sRGB, Adobe RGB, Gamma, Brightness, etc.) Looking for a replacement to my ancient 2009 27" iMac for Creative Cloud work (PSD, ID, DW, AI). With the MBP's being less impressive, would I be better off with a HP Spectre x360 over the XPS 15? Been debating to getting a 7th gen XPS 15 after CES or get something with a color accurate display without getting beyond $1600. Intrigued by this offering from HP. Thoughts??
Great review! Will you be reviewing the new HP ZBook x2?
Is the dedicated graphics switchable with intel graphics when not in use on this model? love your reviews, I ordered one off HP's site after watching
just one video, i'm a fan already, not only of the spectre in question.
Picked mine up, love it! Probably overkill for web development but it does everything I need it to crazy fast.
YOU ARE OLDER...BUT AWESOME...I FOLLOW YOU BECAUSE I LIKE THE WAY YOU MADE THIS REVIEW...👏👏👏
