HP Spectre x360 15 (2020) | Review

Reviewing the HP Spectre x360 15, a creator's laptop with a 360-degree hinge, dedicated GTX 1650 Ti graphics and a gorgeous 4K display that's perfect for photo and video editing. I've been testing the Spectre 15 x360 (fresh for 2020) for a week now and here's my final verdict on the performance, gaming abilities and overall experience. With its £1999 asking price, this HP laptop is definitely competing against the best of 2020, such as Dell's XPS 15. You get a fold-up design that's handy for sketching, or propping up to watch a movie on the Ultra HD screen. Speaking of which, that 4K panel is stunning, offering accurate colour reproduction, crisp detail and a powerful top brightness. Performance is strong enough for video editing and gaming with older titles, although I found the HP Spectre x360 15 did throttle when put under pressure. That's because of the powerful components, crammed inside a very slender chassis. So you won't be able to play the latest games, while even less demanding titles often slow down after a while. Still, for editing on the fly and enjoying 4K video wherever you roam, I adored this laptop. It's not cheap, but it certainly looks and feels like a premium notebook. So that's my review, let me know if you're tempted below!
