Archive.org versionThe HP Envy TouchSmart Ultrabook 4 is a 14-inch ultrabook that sells for around £800. This is a sleek ultrabook with a quality chassis and great processing power for the asking price. But until HP decides to put some effort into the screen and audio—which, after all, are some of the things it's advertising—it will never catch up with Asus and Apple.

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.

70%: This rating is poor. More than three quarters of the models are rated better. That is rather not a purchase recommendation. Even if verbal ratings in this area do not sound that bad ("sufficient" or "satisfactory"), they are usually euphemisms that disguise a classification as a below-average laptop.
