HP Pavilion Aero 13 (13-be0000) review – powerful and efficient hardware in a super light chassis
Source: Laptop Media
It’s all bells, and whistles until you get to the upgrade options. Unfortunately, the memory here is soldered, which is a limiting factor. There are configurations with either 8 or 16GB, both working in dual-channel mode. Thankfully, HP skips the LPDDR4x type and goes straight for DDR4 3200MHz chips. This is working in conjunction with up to the Ryzen 7 5800U processor from AMD. Essentially, this makes the Pavilion Aero 13 (13-be0000) one of the lightest notebooks to come with an 8-core processor. On the other hand, it can’t come near the potential of the CPU, as the cooling solution doesn’t really allow it to reach high clocks for long periods of time. We don’t want to be too critical of the I/O either, because it has a MicroSD card slot, two USB Type-As, an HDMI 2.0 connector, and a USB Type-C 3.2 (Gen. 2) port with the option to output DisplayPort 1.4 signal. Personally, we think that the jaw-style mechanisms over the USB Type-As should be implemented by more manufacturers. Especially those that miss these ports, because their device is “too thin”.

100% HP Pavilion Aero 13 Review – Simply the (second) best
Source: Toptenreviews
It’s still an excellent laptop though. As you’d expect from a laptop with a 13.3in screen, the HP Pavilion Aero 13 is compact and light, making it easy to slip in a bag and carry around. It measures 16.9x297x209mm (HxWxD) when folded up and weighs just 900g. That’s really light, even at this size, to the extent that it left us wondering if HP might have forgotten to put the components inside. We didn’t need to worry. Inside you’ll find an AMD Ryzen 7 5800U processor and 8GB of RAM, a combination that’s more than powerful enough to handle the Windows workload we put it through during testing. It recorded a score of 5,876 on the performance benchmark test, putting it ahead of the HP Envy 13 (4,930 – reviewed in Issue 614) and the Acer Swift 3 (5,864, see Issue 617). If that isn’t impressive enough, the Pavilion Aero 13 sprinted past the competition in our video-transcoding test, converting a 4K video clip to 1080p in just 9 minutes 5 seconds. That outcome nearly halves the time taken by the Envy 13 (17 minutes 29 seconds) and shaves several minutes off the Swift 3 (13 minutes).

90% HP Pavilion Aero 13: Light on price and weight, heavy on style and power
Source: PC World
Beyond being incredibly light and eminently portable, the HP Pavilion Aero 13 scores points for still providing a roomy display and comfortable keyboard in such a compact package. A 13.3-inch laptop can feel cramped with a 16:9 aspect ratio but when stretched vertically to 16:10, you get more room to work. And the Aero 13 is certainly ready to work. The Ryzen 7 5800U helped the laptop deliver outstanding application and multimedia performance that’s a step or two ahead of its Intel-based competition. You won’t find more power in a lighter laptop for the price. It’s so light in fact that I’d be willing to tote around another couple of ounces for a 4-cell battery and a longer running time. And let’s be honest: keyboard backlighting should come standard.

87% HP Pavilion Aero review: HP's lightest laptop yet deserves a closer look
Source: Engadget
This isn’t a fair comparison at all, but in my head I keep thinking about Dell’s XPS 13 which, for many people, is either the gold-standard ultrabook, or in the top three. And, right now, that on both specs and price, the Pavilion Aero 13 is a more compelling choice. When you look at the base model XPS 13, which starts $1,019.99, the only thing that HP loses out on is aesthetics. In almost every other regard, I’d much rather have this Pavilion Aero than the XPS and that, to me, is wild. I think the Pavilion Aero 13 is a very good machine, with a solid thin-and-light body and performance that punches well above its weight. For some people, the 5800U running the show is enough of a reason to buy one of these that everything else is broadly immaterial. Do I wish it was priced a little more aggressively? Yes, because I could forgive the learning curve with the keyboard if it was a hundred bucks cheaper. Despite the keyboard and sound, though, it’s a good machine for folks who want a little bit of everything.

HP Pavilion Aero
Source: PC Mag
There are several fine laptops priced at $1,000, and there are some brilliant, desirable ultraportables, but most of the second group cost way too much to join the first. The HP Pavilion Aero not only meets both criteria, but weighs less than most of its rivals and has a processor that's downright overpowered for everyday tasks. It's a bummer that our test configuration lacks the backlit keyboard that every laptop over $700 should have, and it'd be nice to see a higher-resolution OLED display—though that would change the system from an affordable Pavilion to a premium Spectre. But the Aero easily earns a place in our Editors' Choice lineup.

HP Pavilion Aero 13 First Impressions: It feels more premium than it should
Source: XDA Developers
All of that’s fine for a $700 laptop, except perhaps for the non-backlit keyboard. It’s even more acceptable when you’re adding key features like cellular connectivity. There’s no cellular connectivity option on the HP Pavilion Aero 13, but it really seems like there are fewer compromises here than there should be, which is a very good thing. Here’s what I see as compromises — the backlit keyboard isn’t standard (but it exists), the webcam is still 720p (but 1080p webcams still aren’t even very common on PCs), there’s no IR camera (but there’s a fingerprint sensor), and there’s no cellular option. If you pay the extra $20 for the backlit keyboard, you’re in good shape. Here’s what we do get from the HP Pavilion Aero 13. It’s ultralight at under a kilogram, it has a lot of power that doesn’t break the bank, it has a great display with FHD+ and QHD+ options, and it feels premium. I’m really excited to spend more time with it.

Lisa Gade reviews the HP Pavilion Aero 13, a 13.3” Ultrabook that packs a lot of high end features into the typically budget-friendly Pavilion laptop line. This is an AMD Ryzen Zen 3 exclusive PC with a 16:10 aspect ratio, bright IPS display and a premium magnesium-aluminum alloy chassis you’d expect to see on the more expensive HP Envy line. The Aero 13 weight just under 1 kg /2.2 lb, yet it’s rigid. It’s available with full HD+ and QHD+ 2560 x 1600 matte displays, has a fingerprint scanner, Ryzen 5 and Ryzen 7 CPU options with Radeon graphics and is Windows 11 ready.

Above all, this display size is used for subnotebooks, ultrabooks and convertibles. For all three types, this size is quite large. The biggest variety of subnotebooks is represented with this size.

Large display-sizes allow higher resolutions. So, details like letters are bigger. On the other hand, the power consumption is lower with small screen diagonals and the devices are smaller, more lightweight and cheaper.

Mainly, bigger-sized tablets and convertibles weigh as much.
