80% HP Spectre Folio review: This lightweight leather laptop is different in a very good way
Source: PC World Archive.org version
Lightweight and leather-wrapped, the HP Spectre Folio actually feels comfortable, in a way that a metal- or plastic-clad laptop never could. Thanks to its energy-sipping Intel Core Y processor, it performs capably while generating very little heat, and its battery lasts a very long time.

While I love the HP Spectre Folio’s leather casing, that’s just part of why this laptop rates highly. Without the leather, it would still be remarkably lightweight, cool, and long-lasting on battery. With the leather, HP’s added feelings to the laptop—feelings of comfort, luxury, naturalness. Those are good feelings to have, and they just might sell you on the Spectre Folio.

80% HP Spectre Folio 13-ak0001na review: Blockbuster battery life
Source: It Pro Archive.org version
The HP Spectre Folio looks fantastic, thanks to its leather exterior, and it’s satisfying to use in its tablet, media and laptop modes. The screen is brilliant, the battery life shames rivals and the CPU can easily handle day-to-day computing tasks. Rivals have more satisfying keyboards and more CPU power, but the Folio remains a stylish and intuitive hybrid.

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.

HP: Founded in 1939, the US company is a major server and printer manufacturer and one of the leading IT companies in the world. Until 2015, the company was called Hewlett-Packard Company. After a split, the computer division was renamed HP Inc.

In 2023, HP had an approximate market share of 22% of global PC sales, making it number 2 after Lenovo.

80%: This rating is not earth-shattering. This rating must actually be seen as average, since there are about as many devices with worse ratings as better ones. A purchase recommendation can only be seen with a lot of goodwill, unless it is about websites that generally rate strictly.
