HP Spectre x360 15 (15.6-inch, 2019)

Elegant design. Strong performance. Great battery life.

Bulky and heavy. Screen isn't super-bright. Expensive.

Bottom Line: Like all 15.6-inch 2-in-1s, HP's 2019 revision of the Spectre x360 15 is unwieldy in tablet mode, but its six-core CPU and GeForce GTX 1050 Ti graphics far outstrip last year's model in productivity and presentation performance.

Good graphics performance.

I'm not a fan of the eye-catching design; personally, I find it gaudy. But that's subjective, and someone else might love it.

So no, this device is not perfect. But it's nice to see OEMs like HP trying new things, and some of them (like the webcam switch and the port placement) are wins in our book. The Spectre 15 x360 isn't for everybody, but it carves its own earned niche...

The HP Spectre x360 (15-inch) is a powerful convertible laptop for creatives, with impressive audio, but the display is too dim.
