HP Actually LISTENED!!! - Spectre X360

The last time we looked at the HP Spectre x360 we hated it. But now it looks like they've turned it around.

    The people that keep up with processors are a very small segment of the market buying laptops. Most people have no idea what AMD even is, and if they do, they have no idea which model is better. Most people will still go with Intel just because of brand recognition. (Assuming they don't have a friend/family member or salesman coaching them.)

    So I have the HP Spectre 13, the one in the video. Here are my thoughts after using it for just over 2 weeks. Keyboard: Awesome, literally, I love it. He said something about the J, I don't have any wiggly keys, so I assume he just had a defect in his specific unit Speakers: Loud, can be very pitchy on the 90-100 range, but generally good. Trackpad: Took me a couple of days to get used to it being so small, but I don't mind it anymore. The screen: I have the 1080p model and it looks awesome, I can only imagine how the 4K model looks. Battery: I am one of those people who gets paranoid if anything goes below 50% on battery. Full day use, at about 1/2 brightness and I don't go below 75% on this laptop. The lowest I've managed to get it so far is just below 60%, the battery life is actually great. Other things: Its edge is a tad sharp, but you get used to it quickly. Heat, this laptop gets fucking hot, even just with one tab open, watching Netflix or something. I've only had the fan kick in three times, twice when I was downloading a game (2 different games) and once during the first boot up. All three times, I could barely hear it and once I only realized it was on when I felt it. My biggest problem with the laptop, is probably when using the pen on the screen, it can be very difficult not to push the screen down. 10/10 would buy again, just would purchase the black-gold or blue-gold models instead of the silver model since I don't like silver.

    Non-topic related: I just absolutely enjoy watching videos with Alex. He comes across as super sympathetic and really cool (but in like an awkward way... that's not really awkward but makes him super likeable... hard to describe). But what's topping it off, is that he combines his personality with a huge amount of knowledge and competence. A joy to watch! Also: ShortCircuit is just great. I love this slightly different kind of content, probably because what's shown in the videos is legitimately something that the on-camera-person has a personal interest in, which just gives these videos some extra weight. That's obviously not saying that this isn't the case on the LTT channel, which I also really enjoy, but it's just this little 'personal touch' which is absolutely amazing! Keep going guys! :)

    I think part of the complaint was because HP's L-shaped power connector (on the 15"?) got right in the way of the power connector. Seems like the 13" has that cool diagonal-placed USB-C charge port, so maybe it's not in the way anymore

    But I can buy a Zephyrus G14 for cheaper... ...I’m sorry imma be fanboying over that laptop for the rest of the week Edit: Let me rephrase this, the Zephyrus G14 is just too good compared to a traditional laptop. Now this isn’t a traditional laptop, so it and like a surface still have its place in the market. Use the pen, and you can use it as a tablet. Literally every other device on the market (unless it’s sub $400) isn’t worth it because you can get a Zephyrus base for around $1000 with a 1660ti and an r7 that can match a 9th gen i7 or even higher. Asus next time don’t demo such an amazing product with an amazing price when you’re going to release it in April. Q1 2020 SHOULD NOT MEAN THE LAST POSSIBLE POINT OF Q1

    When you do the full review, can you please do a little bit of detail on the stylus? Responsiveness, pressure sensitivity curve, etc. a previous model of theirs was almost my dream machine a few years ago, but I had to take it back because of how trash it's pen support was. As a digital artist, I'd love to see more of that, and almost nobody ever goes in to any detail beyond "It's got a stylus" :)

    LTT probably has some of its workers working from home because of the current virus. They may not have access to the same quality hardware at home that they do at work, or at least that's the rumor around this youtube section. Personally, I don't think Linus would make such an oversight of not just letting his workers take home some premium editing monitors for the time being. So if they weren't allowed to take any color correct monitors home, it was probably an intentional decision made in caution against any of that hardware being damaged while away from work. I think some of that stuff can cost 10,000s of CAD. But again, this is all just rumor mongering and as far as I know Linus nor anyone else associated with LTT have given an official statement on why some of their videos have been looking weird as of late.
