Reviews for the HP Envy x360 13-ay0010nr
The latest mid-range 13.3-inch convertible from HP could easily pass as a flagship Spectre offering. It does a lot of things right to be a worthwhile sub-$1000 laptop with only a handful of annoyances to keep in mind.

If I was still commuting regularly on a bus or train, the HP Envy x360 13 two-in-one laptop would be on my shortlist. It would also be a top consideration if I were shopping for an older high school or college student. It's small, stylish and light at just less than 3 pounds (1.3 kg). Battery life is long despite the size. And the AMD Ryzen 5-4500U processor delivered performance beyond that of pricier Intel chips. Add in fast Wi-Fi 6 and Bluetooth 5.0 and, essentially, you're getting a speedy little two-in-one that's ready for working from home or remote learning but is also ready for your backpack.

The HP Envy x360 13 is one of only a handful of Ryzen 4000-based laptops we’ve reviewed, but it reinforces a sea change we’re seeing in performance available to consumers. You are literally getting premium CPU and graphics performance that would typically cost you two to three hundred dollars more with an Intel CPU. For example, last year’s Intel-based Envy x360 13 with 8GB RAM and 256GB storage cost roughly the same $800 as this current Ryzen-based model, but the newer model far outstrips the older in CPU performance. You’re also getting a laptop that hits many right notes in fit and finish. It’s not perfect by far, but this is overall an impressive laptop at a great price.

AMD Vega 6: Integrated graphics adapter of the Ryzen APUs based on the Vega architecture with 6 CUs (= 384 shaders) and a clock of up to 1,500 MHz.
Modern games should be playable with these graphics cards at low settings and resolutions. Casual gamers may be happy with these cards.

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.
