The editors liked
Slick design
Good keyboard and trackpad
Three USB Type-C points
The HP Spectre is remarkably thin while still managing to fit in Core i5 and Core i7 processors. The keyboard is excellent for such a slim body
And the bold design stands out in a sea of thin ultraportables
Thinnest laptoop in the world

The editors didn't like
Battery life on the shorter side
A little too much bezel
Fingerprint magnet
The lack of a touchscreen is a big omission for a premium Windows laptop
And the limited ports may force you to carry extra dongles and accessories

Abstract: The 13.3-inch Spectre's big claim to fame here is its minuscule size and the amount of power its able to pack inside that tiny frame. Normally, as computers devolve from gargantuan machines to teeny laptops, you start seeing performance trade-offs. A proc...
The HP Spectre isn't for everyone. Some won't like its piston hinge or its non-touchscreen, Full HD display, while its price will put it out of the reach of others. Those looking for something similar but more affordable could consider HP's Envy 13, which...
Exceptionally good build quality with stealth piston hinge, Incredibly thin (10.4 mm) and light (1.1 kg), Comfortable keyboard, Excellent screen quality, No PWM used above 60% (95 cd/m2) brightness, Two out of three USB-C connectors are Gen 2 and support
Low browsing battery runtimes, Ineffective cooling system, gets warm under normal load, Can't utilize the full potential of the CPU, Only USB Type-C ports, Extremely hard to access the storage
If you are looking for a good alternative to the MacBook with more ports for your peripherals and a little bit more horsepower under the hood while still being exceptionally lightweight and thin, the HP Spectre 13 is an ideal choice. However, if you the d...

Beautiful Super-Thin Design, Carbon Fiber Composite, Gold Finished Machined Aluminum, Great All Around Performance, Excellent Keyboard, Nice Bright IPS Display, 3 USB-C Ports, Two With TB3
Cooling Fans Can Get A Little Noisy, Lack-Luster Battery Life, No SD Card Slot
The HP Spectre offered surprisingly robust performance for such a thin and light machine. Typically, when a machine this thin comes in for testing here, we're prepared for some level of throttling of the main system processor. However, that absolutely was...

Amazingly thin with a sleek, sexy metal design. Performance is not compromised in any way. Awesome keyboard features surprisingly good travel distance. Great display. Three USBC ports, two Thunderbolt 3 capable.
Battery life is average. No touchscreen option or ability to get more RAM.

Abstract: How thin is too thin, and is extreme style worth extreme compromise? The HP Spectre 13 is the latest notebook to ask those questions, chasing - and indeed besting - Apple's MacBook in millimeters of depth and raw power potential, though demanding concessi...
