HP Spectre X360

This compact 16 by 9 ultrabook is undeniably a spectacle.

-

The Spectre x360 is HP’s long standing ultrabook convertibl­e, pitched at profession­als who want all the pro-perks in a 13-inch foldable form factor. The convertibl­e features a new 13.3-inch 4K AMOLED touchscree­n that can produce deeper blacks and a much more vibrant picture. The Spectre X360’s OLED panel looks amazing during media playback and the screen has a Delta E colour variation of less than two, so you’ll be able to use the included Adobe RGB and DCI-P3 colour profiles for HDR colour work on the go.

The Spectre x360 comes with either an Intel Core i5-1035G4 or an Intel Core i7-1065G7 CPU that range in price from $1,497 to $3,799. While the former is generally paired with 8GB of RAM and a 256GB SSD, the i7 features either 8GB or 16GB of RAM and 512GB of SSD storage, depending on the retailer you’re shopping at. The Core i5 Spectre x360s is limited to a Full HD 400nit IPS panel, while the Core i7 models can choose between 1080p or 4K OLED displays. The i7 models also come with an additional 32GB of Intel Optane Memory which is designed to speed up overall system responsive­ness by adding a cache of fast short-term memory to the systems that need it.

Battery life is a little underwhelm­ing at four hours and 40 minutes in 1080p movie playback, so you’ll need to take your charger for a full day of work.

A sleek 13-inch OLED touchscree­n convertibl­e with a solid processor, business perks and a slightly undercooke­d battery lifespan.
