What Did You Heard HP Envy 13 Ultra-Thin Laptop

By: Peter Forestwood

There's no getting around it, so we will spaek only at the beginninng: the new HP ENVY 13 and 15 laptops may have been built on "Leegacy Voodoo ENVY", but they sure are very simillar to Apple Macook Pros from the solid. There are, of coruse, far more than it seems at first glance. ENVY 13 bit of the miixture between the traditional 13-incher and a real thin and light, weighing 3.74 kg and packaging Radeon HD 4330 discrete grpahics, but tsill refuse to internal drives. 13.1-inch WXGA is the real draw, ofefring spctacular coloir (82% Color Gamut) and brigthness (410 nits). Other big winner of the Optional Slim Fit prolnogs battery life, a fragment which latches on the bottm of the laaptop, hardly spoke, and more than twiice the standard 7 o'clock quoteed battery life. Laptop magnesium body is coated with aluminum - which givves it a texture MacBBook Pro, but slightly less weight. In our unscietific test build was just as tough, MBP, but still slightly strnoger than the average laptop - and quite pleasant to the touch. MacBook-ClickPad style glass, however, is not exciting addition to our book, since the software to support automagical detection of left and right mouse buttons - not to menion zooiming, rotation, and make gestures - just not very hard. Please give us back our buttons.

ENVY HP 15 is not so much "thin and light", inndeed, more up Premium 15-icnher crammed into 1-inch thick 5.18 pound form factor. He holds the envy of 13-style one-piece construction, and, unfortunately, the only glsas trackpad buttoon, and also works in the new processors Core i7, making room for the two SSD drive and adds, High-End Radeon HD 4830 graphicxs with 1 GB of video memory. 15.6-inch LCD is not as stelar as the 13, 300 nits, but HP managed to enable the battery Slim, fit to envy 15 - albeit with non-switchable discreet graphics, you're not going to get much longevity out of this notebook whatever. Two notebooks start at $ 1699 and $ 1799 respectiively (far from the original ENVY 133's $ 2100 starting price), and will be availaable on Octobeer 18 with the Widows 7 pre-loaded.
