Reviews for the HP Envy 6-1070SF

Unusually for an ultrabook the Envy uses a 500GB hard disk for storing your programs and files. It's been paired with a small 32GB solid state drive (SSD) for speeding up tasks such as starting up and waking from sleep. The large hard disk means there's plenty of storage space, but it also means the Envy doesn't feel quite as snappy as SSD-only ultrabooks. Plus the hard disk won't be as damage-resistant as a SSD.

After the Envy 4, HP has now released its big brother, the Envy 6, a 15.6-inch ultrabook that sells for as low as £440. Is it worth the upgrade from the Envy 4? The Envy 6's biggest selling point is its thin size (19.8 mm), which officially makes it an ultrabook—and that's about it, because on the 15.6" market you can find all sorts of laptops with better specs at a lower price.

15.6": 15 inch display-variants are the standard and are used for more than the half of all notebooks. 15.4 inch display with 16:10 are the standard for notebook displays. However nowadays, more and more 16:9 displays with 15.6 inch appear. The reason why so many people like displays with medium size is, that this size is not exhausting for the eyes, does not need too much energy and the laptops can be kept quite compact.» To find out how fine a display is, see our DPI List.
2 kg: These sub-notebooks weight less than the average of all notebooks, but represent a heavier class of weight among the sub-notebooks. 12 inch displays are normal for this class of weight.
