Spector pro vs spector 3603/23/2023 ![]() Unlike the Spectre x360 13.5-inch, there is only one colourway for the XPS 13: platinum silver with black carbon fibre palm rest. There is also a fingerprint scanner embedded into the power button, which makes it even easier to quickly log in to Windows. We liked the keyboard and trackpad, with our reviewer finding both were responsive and comfortable to use. As noted in our review, this thin and slender frame gives it a very professional look, with a sturdier build than you may expect, since it weighs in at only 1.27kg. The XPS 13 has a wafer-thin bezel and is overall very thin, housing only two Thunderbolt 4 USB-C ports, a MicroSD card reader and a 3.5mm audio jack. Since we don’t know the top price, we can’t say which model is overall more expensive, though we can say that the starting price for the Spectre x360 13.5-inch costs a bit more than the XPS 13. HP’s latest laptop is expected to be available to purchase this month and has a starting price of $1,249.99. While this price can be increased by upgrading the specs we will only be focusing on the cheapest variation, since we only know the starting price for the Spectre x360 13.5-inch. The Dell XPS 13 was released last year, with the cheapest variation available to buy from the Dell website for around $1,000/£1,000. But we will be covering the design, screen and specs of both laptops read on to find out how they stack up based on our current impressions of the new HP. While we haven’t had the chance to cover the Spectre x360 15.3-inch, we did get a good look at the Spectre x360 13.5-inch laptop, and it looks to be a pretty impressive device.īut how does the latest Spectre compare to one of our favourite productivity laptops, the five-star Dell XPS 13 OLED (2021)? Since we haven’t been able to fully review the Spectre x360 13.5-inch we can’t offer our final verdict on how it compares to the ruling XPS. HP just released a new batch of laptops, with new entries to the Envy line – including the new HP Envy 16-inch and Envy 17.3-inch – and two new entries to the Spectre line. But how does it compare to one of our five-star laptops, the Dell XPS 13 OLED (2021)? Making logging in and authentication more secure and seamless.HP just added to its Spectre lineup with the Spectre x360 13.5-inch 2-in-1 laptop. You also get the standard security features with both face and fingerprint biometrics with windows hello. ![]() It works surprisingly well if you want to hide sensitive information from prying eyes. HP calls this the Sure View Reflect integrated privacy screen. There are more business focused features with the screen with a press of a button, you can reduce the visibility of the screen from off center angles. The standard features like camera disabling is here, though it’s done via a dedicated keyboard button instead of a camera cover. The HP Spectre x360 comes with a couple of privacy focused features. This is something you would have to think about with this laptop. Enough for me to want to stop using it all together and just move to an external mouse. The tracking is pretty good, but the clicking just feels horrible. The backlight is nothing special, it’s relatively dim, but thankfully also doesn’t suffer too much from light bleeding out from the keys. Even thought I am not a fan of the big right and left arrow keys, it is still an overall good keyboard. The key travel is very satisfactory and key layout is also very good. The keyboard in the HP Spectre x360 is very good, especially when you look at how thin this laptop is. The speakers are built and tunes by BnO, which means they do sound good, but I doubt anyone will be watching movies on the Spectre x360 anyway. The main thing is that they are good for video calls if you don’t have any headphones around. The speakers are quite decent, they get loud enough to be enjoyed in a small room. That’s what you get with a 14” laptop, no surprise at all. Outdoors it loses most usability, though its small size doesn’t help with using it on the lap. It is a touch screen, and is bright enough indoors. But the display was one of the biggest let downs. ![]() Maybe it had something to do with the drivers not working properly or the security features HP has built into the lapto (more on that later). The display was pretty low resolution that the text looked generally blurry to me. Sadly neither the Display or Speakers are anything to write home about. Standard usage for me, but good to see overall. Provided I kept brightness at a regular amount and switched the screen off when not using the laptop. I got about 10 hours of light usage on this laptop, which got me more than through a day and a half of work. ![]() The battery life on regular usage was pretty great. Here are the benchmarks we ran: PC Mark 3D Mark Cinebench Cinebench CPU-Z ![]()
