Thanks for the great review ms. Andrew I love this design from HP and I liked the screen, its features, and the texture of the keyboard for me as a person who learns programming and needs to move outside, so this laptop is good for me, but I think of some entertainment and games when connecting the laptop to the charger and my question: Is it suitable for a few games at some times of the day (and this is a secondary thing from the laptop and not its primary purpose)

I appreciate how you're now weighing laptops on a scale to measure their weight. I've found that the weights listed on the laptop specification sheets provided by the manufacturers, can often be wildly inaccurate.

I just got this laptop. Its great so far, sound and camera really impressive. Thanks for your reviews, are THE best!

I bought one from Best Buy last week. It came in on Friday. I honestly didn't even know it was this good of a machine! Nice review!

A Value laptop is the key here when it comes to the HP Envy 16 (2023) as it seems to check a lot of the boxes and it won’t cost an arm and a leg to purchase it. Is it a perfect laptop? It is not as it has some negatives but overall, it is a decent laptop with great sounding quad speakers from Bang and Olufsen. Great review as always Andrew!! 👏😁

Yes it is.

I bought this computer 2 weeks ago. Between firewall, antivirus, vpn and other basic background programs, memory available sat at about 8GB free for anything else. I installed 32gb 5600 memory (2 x 16) and everything seems to be running fine so far. Down to under 1/4 utilized. My only issue so far is that the BIOS on this laptop is extremely anemic. There does not appear to be an advanced tab, and no way to enable XMP. Beyond that, seems to be a great laptop so far. I also installed battery monitoring software to better understand how long the battery will last.

I purchased the BestBuy model with the i9-13900H/RTX4060/16GB/1TB on sale for $1,449.99 and then had it priced adjusted to $1,299.99. When on sale, there is not a better overall laptop for the price that is available. I've already upgraded the memory to 32GB and popped in a secondary SSD and everything is flawless. I've had the laptop for a little over two months and absolutely love it, HP is my go-to for laptops. My only gripe is the silver keys with the white LED backlight. Otherwise, this is a superb machine that can handle anything and everything you throw at it. I would recommend people considering this laptop to buy it.

My 8 yr old hp is still rocking like a beast in Ubuntu platform.But its hinge got broken and there are so many cracks on its plastic body.

I know I'm pretty late to this, but boy what a great video, and a great laptop too! Internesting to note that you also had the issue whereby you take the back off the laptop, then without probably touching anything, something either gets static discharge, or as is becoming more and more common, the surface mount components haven't been mounted properly, they have a static charge that can't be dumped into circuit board, so when a human goes in...bang! Apple hardware is renowed for this, so is ASUS, HP and Lenovo. I'm sure ACER are just as bad, and well, pretty much any other manufactorer. Dell seem to be the only ones who have any degree of good PCB layout and design when it comes to ICB's...meaning that components don't tend to fry themselves as soon as the cover is removed.

can you charge via USBC?

That looks like my Omen from 3 years ago, just in other colors with slightly different details, even charger is the same with the same wattage x)

However, I have not done any video editing or gaming on it. That probably is due to lower heat than the 13900H CPU you have. Also, the display is the best display I have ever used. I have the same display you tested. Keep in mind I have owned two Dell XPS laptops (the 15 and 17 inch, and this display is easily as good as those laptops).
