Archive.org versionIt won't break any speed records, but the HP Spectre 13 is a smart, attractive Ultrabook that can give Apple's MacBook Air a run for its money. The HP's slimline design, high-quality display and reasonable battery life help ensure that it earns its keep when you're out and about. And, of course, there's that over-sized trackpad, which is a small but worthy innovation that makes it just that little bit more comfortable to use than many of its rivals.

Archive.org versionAlthough this ultraportable is light and stylish, with a very good display, it's underpowered for the price and suffers from a poorly designed touchpad. We prefer the Asus Zenbook UX302.

Model:
The HP Spectre 13-3010ea is a 13.3 inch ultrabook. The device is not only easy on the eyes but is tough and robust as well. The aluminum surfaces provide a nice high-end finish to the premium ultrabook. The well-built chassis allows users to be rougher with the device without sustaining any damage.
Like most ultrabooks, the HP Spectre 13-3010ea is not equipped with a wide range of ports. It only has a HDMI and 2 USB ports aside from the standard audio jack. It does not have a VGA port nor does it have an Ethernet port for wired connections. Fortunately, the WiFi on the device is rather good. It can communicate with both the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz band. Bluetooth 4.0 is also supported.
The display for the HP Spectre 13-3010ea is QHD. It is one of the first devices to incorporate this. The 2560 by 1440 resolution is amazing for a screen of only 13.3 inches. Under the hood, the HP Spectre 13-3010ea is powered by an Intel Core i7-4500U processor. The raw processing power of this device is exceptional. Even 3D modelling should be a breeze.
All in all, the HP Spectre 13-3010ea comes with great specifications, an amazing screen and a fantastic exterior. However, like other ultrabooks, it does not come with a great selection of ports and the price is rather high.
