Reviews for the HP Envy 4-1043cl
Source: PC Mag
Archive.org versionWe had high expectations for the HP Envy 4-1043cl, and while the ultrabook offers plenty of fine features, like Beats Audio, WiDi 2.0, and generous offerings in software and warranty—not to mention a strong performance boost from Intel's latest third-generation processors—it didn't leave us feeling quite so envious. We'd have like to have seen the Envy 4-1043cl match the higher resolution displays and longer battery life offered in similar priced competitors. While it doesn't dethrone the HP Folio 13-1020us as our Editors' Choice—still the best overall value we've seen in the ultrabook space—the HP Envy 4-1043cl is a great choice for anyone shopping with an eye toward performance.

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.
