HP Envy 15 Review
Body and Design
The base model of the HP Envy 15 weighs 1.93kg and is 17.9 mm thick. While it is not the weightiest of laptops, you will certainly notice it if you carry it for a while. If you are in the market for a lighter laptop, such as one of the lower-end Dell XPS 13s, would be a better option.
As for the framework, it is well built with nominal flex to the exterior. The front corners are nicely rounded. While the lid is a matte silver, the rear strip boasts a shiny metallic surface along the hinge.
Display
The convertible laptop features a Full HD IPS panel, which is noticeably lacklustre. Brightness is a little underwhelming at only 258.4cd/m2, which is quite disappointing for an HP laptop. The display’s intensity may well leave you stressed if you are working with lots of spreadsheets with enough figures at the same time.
While contrast is fair at 1,179:1, the actual colour accuracy could be way better. With just 58 percent coverage of the sRGB colour gamut and an extremely underwhelming 40.1% of Adobe RGB, this laptop wouldn’t do for digital creatives or those in need of truly characterized colours.
Operating System and Processor
This is one part Envy lovers can take joy in. The specs of the HP Envy 15 equate favourably with those of the popular HP Spectre 13, which costs significantly more.
It boasts similar dual-core 2.5GHz Intel Core i7-6500U seen in the base mode of the HP Spectre. This, like some other convertible laptops, can boost to 3.1GHz when cool, and is supported by 8 GB of RAM. Performance was principally similar to the Spectre 13, which comes as no shock.
Battery Capacity
Battery life was decent. The Envy 15 can manage 7 hours 24 minutes of full operation when fully charged. If you considerably increase the brightness though, the battery life reduces by about 6 percent based on various tests and user reviews. While the convertible laptop is not quite, what you would call the all-day kind of battery; it comes pretty close and should be appreciated.
