#HP SPECTRE X360 13T VS 15T BUY NEWARK USA FULL#
With the pen, you get a full Windows Ink experience just like you would on a Microsoft Surface. If you opt for the top-of-the-line Spectre x360 with the 4K display, your system also comes with stylus support and HP's new active pen included. Its superwide shape gives you a ton of room to mouse around, and even though there aren't discrete left or right mouse buttons, the system never confused different types of clicks. The Spectre's 4.7 x 2.3-inch touchpad is also a thing a beauty.
Adding an extra row for the Delete, Home, Page Up, Page Down and End on the right is a nice touch too. This kind of attention to detail leaves you with a fantastic, clicky key-press that mimics the same feel that people love in mechanical keyboards. That effort paid off, because even with the keyboard's 60-gram actuation weight and a 1.3mm keystroke that would feel short and abrupt on another system, typing on the Spectre feels near perfect. HP says it has put a lot of effort into finely tuning not just the amount of force needed to press a key, but also the level of pressure you get through the entire stroke. When I listened to Breakbot's "My Toy," the Spectre x360 nailed Yasmin's bubbly vocals, and while I could have used a little more punch to bring out the French DJ's funky bass, the quad speakers definitely did their job. And, unlike with a lot of other laptops, I didn't hear any hissing or distortion at max volume. This gives you fuller, more immersive audio, with pretty potent volume that easily fills up a room. Two speakers are hidden beneath the grille between the keyboard and the hinge, while the other two are located on either side of the system's bottom. With a clever quad-speaker setup by Bang & Olufsen, the Spectre x360 is built to deliver an optimal listening experience in any mode. Still, with an Intel HD Graphics 620 integrated graphics card instead of discrete GPU, the Spectre isn't really meant for full-time gaming. This gives the Spectre enough horsepower to reach a quite playable 40 frames per second at 1920 x 1080 and Medium settings in Dirt 3 Complete Edition. Its score of 920 on 3DMark's Firestrike benchmark is 14 percent higher than the showing by last year's model.

When we used OpenOffice to sort 20,000 names and addresses, the Spectre x360 (3:33) finished 30 seconds faster than its closest rival, the Samsung spin 9 (4:05). It's also on a par with more expensive hybrids such as Microsoft's Surface Book (318 MBps).įor people who crunch a lot of numbers, the Spectre x360's time on our spreadsheet test is pretty impressive. That's faster than pretty much all of the device's competitors, including the spin 9 (173 MBps) and Yoga 900 (181 MBps). When asked to copy a DVD's worth of mixed-media files, the SSD posted a transfer speed of 318 megabytes per second. The Spectre's PCIe SSD is also blazing fast. To be fair, though, those models used Intel's last-gen chip. That also means the Spectre x360 tops almost all of its competitors, including the Samsung Notebook 9 spin (6,948), the Lenovo Yoga 900 (6,264) and the Yoga 900S (5,343). The convertible notched a Geekbench 3 score of 7,933, which means that overall performance increased by 16 percent over last year's model. Multitasking was a breeze, even with 20 or more browser tabs open. With this kind of setup, the Spectre x360 absolutely flies.
