The HP Envy 13 (2020) is one of the best value laptops currently available, pinching fantastic features from rivals that cost a few hundred quid more. With a stellar performance and keyboard and ultra-portable design, the Envy is a great option for students and causal users.

HP is onto something with the home-inspired design elements of its latest laptops, and the Envy 13’s handsomely crafted wood palm rest continues in that vein. We also appreciated the powerful Ice Lake CPU, which strikes a reasonable balance between raw performance and heat management, not to mention the eye-popping 4K display, all for a reasonable price. That said, the gorgeous (albeit non-touch) screen does take a toll on battery life.

HP's Envy 13 Wood Edition has a striking design with a real wood inlay, but poor battery life and a troublesome touchpad rot an otherwise-excellent laptop.

The HP Envy 13 (Wood Edition)'s walnut-paneled design stands out from the ultraportable crowd. Couple that with a 4K screen, solid components, and a reasonable price tag, and it's an attractive package.

There are hardly any tablets in this display size range anymore. For subnotebooks, on the other hand, it is the standard format.
The advantage of subnotebooks is that the entire laptop can be small and therefore easily portable. The smaller display also has the advantage of requiring less power, which further improves battery life and thus mobility. The disadvantage is that reading texts is more strenuous on the eyes. High resolutions are more likely to be found in standard laptops.
