Big and beautiful premium laptop with specs to match.
The HP Spectre x360 15 may be an upgrade to last year’s laptop of the same name, but don’t confuse iteration with apathy. This is a full-on overhaul to the Spectre x360 15 of yesteryear. From its sleek, modern design – replete with gold trimmings galore – to its perfectly spaced keyboard, the 2017 HP Spectre x360 15 has an awful lot to offer.
It isn’t as slim as the previous model, measuring in at 17.8mm thick instead of a mere 16mm, but the HP Spectre x360 maintains a boney form factor despite the inclusion of full-size ports and a traditional membrane keyboard. And that’s without mentioning its ability to fold four ways, making it not only a top-of-the line laptop, but a cutting-edge tablet as well.
Price and availability
The UK version is available in just two different models. One priced at £1,499 and armed with 8GB of RAM and a 512GB PCIe solid-state drive; and a £1,799 model with 16GB of RAM and a 1TB PCIe SSD. In other respects, both models are the same with a 7th gen Intel Core i7-7500U processors and 15.6-inch Ultra HD display on board.
Design
Given its price tag, you’d expect the HP Spectre X360 15 to look the part – and it doesn’t disappoint. Yes, it’s huge compared to the Ultrabooks we’re used to seeing these days, but it’s the attention to detail in its design that sets this laptop apart – from its tapered profile, which ranges from 17.8mm at the rear to 5mm up front, to the jagged triangular shapes that enclose its onboard Bang & Olufsen speakers, this laptop is one class act.
