REVIEW:

The HP Envy 13 is a nicely made 13-inch laptop which is fully filled with all the important features, you want in a laptop. It is made up of solid aluminum and magnesium. Its edge to edge glossy display and oversized touch pad reminds us of Mac-book pro.

Its starting price is $1,699 but if you want a secondary battery and an external blu-ray drive then you have to pay at least $2,149. Off course this laptop gives us better display, it has a new CPU and also it gives us various options but still this laptop is very costly. In case of looks and performance this laptop is far away from its competitors.

It has a full sized keyboard, with nice black keys which are very comfortable to use. It also gives us a 1.3 megapixel webcam. A new feature has been introduced, called as Night vision which provides infrared light so that it can be used in case there is not enough light. It gives us an amazing battery life which can lasts up to 14 hours with the optional slice. It is not a very heavy laptop but its extra battery makes it little bit heavy.

So the HP Envy 13 is a stylish laptop, gives impressive performance, gives better display, user friendly also but its higher price than other similar looking laptops makes it tough to sell.

GOOD FEATURES:

1. Its modern and classy design makes it a stylish laptop.

2. It gives a bright display with 1600×900 pixel resolution.

3. Its processor gives excellent performance.

4. It has a big touchpad so it is more user friendly.

BAD FEATURES:

1. It is a very expensive laptop.

2. Its speakers are also not much impressive.

3. It has a limited set of ports and connections.

4. Its battery life is average (without slice).

MAIN POINT:

The HP Envy 13 has got almost every important feature and also it gives good performance but at a very high cost. I would give 3 out of 5 stars to this laptop.
