The casing is all aluminum alloy and it's a unibody design with a removable bottom aluminum cover (affixed with Torx T5 screws). It has the exact same industrial design, and that's fine by us because it's striking looking, tasteful and fingerprint-resistant. This is truly a bigger version of the 13.3" Spectre x360 that's been on the market for a year. I'm afraid HP included the USB-C port to seem forward looking and trendy, but in order to keep costs down it's a hobbled 3.0 port. It's not USB-C 3.1 alas, so it can't drive a USB-C display adapter, graphics amplifier or handle USB-C 3.1 multifunction dongles that have Ethernet, USB 3.0 and display ports. The HP Spectre x360 15t has three USB 3.0 ports, both HDMI and a mini DisplayPort, 3.5mm combo audio, an SD card slot and a USB-C 3.0 port. HP's website lists a Core i7 with the somewhat more powerful Intel Iris graphics though we weren't able to select that option when going through the build to order process in the US.

You can tell them apart by looking at the pen's body: the Wacom pen for the x2 has a clip on the side.īoth Spectre x360 15 inch models have Intel HD 520 integrated graphics, Intel 7265 dual band WiFi 802.11ac (curiously a last generation Intel Broadwell wireless card rather than the current generation 8260), Bluetooth 4.1, a backlit keyboard and an extremely compact 45 watt charger. It is not the same as the Wacom AES pen for the HP Spectre x2. Both models have glossy touch screens and they support the HP Active Stylus, a Synaptics digital pen that's sold separately for $60. It has a 4K display, dual core Intel i7 CPU, 16 gigs of RAM and a 256 gig SSD. The $1,349 model we're using for this review is very nicely configured for the price.

There are two pre-built configurations available via HP's website and at retailers like Best Buy: a $1,149 model with a dual core Intel 6th generation Skylake i5 CPU, 8 gigs of RAM, a 256 gig SSD and a 1920 x 1080 full HD Display. The charger is tiny and light while the chargers for those more powerful machines are large and heavy.
It weighs just 4.1 lbs., which is lighter than even premium (thin and light) powerhouse portables like the Dell XPS 15, Asus ZenBook UX501 and MSI's Ghost and Phantom lines.
In return for the Ultrabook internals, you get a relatively light and thin laptop.

If your needs are average-MS Office, streaming video, developing small to mid-sized PC programs or mobile programs and photo editing, then the big Spectre (as well as the small one) will do the job admirably.

If you're reading this because you want a powerful, larger laptop for heavy 3D gaming, professional CAD work or frequent 4K video editing, this is not your machine. It has the same processing power as the 13" model. The HP Spectre x360 15" is not a quad core powerhouse. So what's the catch? These days folks expect dual core ULV Ultrabook CPUs in their 13.3" laptops, but the 15" crowd is more diverse, with some wanting or even expecting a more powerful laptop with a quad core CPU and even dedicated graphics. That's an accomplishment, because designs don't always scale nicely to larger sizes. The aluminum alloy with polished stainless accents and curves in the right places make the bigger model every bit as attractive and desirable looking. The HP Spectre x360 15t is indeed a super-sized version with the same lovely design, and it has most of the same specs and even the same slim 16.9mm thickness. That's a hard act to follow, but we suspect HP will be happy if the 15" version is half as successful as their very popular 13" model. In Chief (twitter: we reviewed the HP Spectre x 360 convertible 13.3" Ultrabook a year ago, we called it "Bob", short for Best of the Best. Less powerful than some premium 15" laptops. What's Not: Keyboard markings are low contrast and hard to see in middling light. Nice specs for the money, rare 15" convertible with pen capabilities. What's Hot: Stunning design and very slim.
