Our opinion on the HP Specter x360 14-eu0010nf
Suitable for studying with its 9-hour battery life on the 2-in-1 laptop HP Spectre x360 14-eu0010nf is convertible into a Tablet with its 14-inch High Definition High Fidelity 2.8K OLED DCI-P3 touch screen which improves fluidity thanks to its 120Hz frequency. This easy-to-carry blue aluminum Ultrabook provides solid performance thanks to its Meteor Lake hybrid Core Ultra 7 155H processor with Intel Arc graphics solution and its large amount of high-performance 32 GB RAM suitable for modest gaming. This core accelerates multimedia processing like the fast SSD storage with a large capacity of 2 TB which reinforces responsiveness. This thin and light compact hybrid Windows 11 laptop guaranteed for 3 years supplied with a stylus offers a 2-factor biometric authentication solution (fingerprint reader + Infrared webcam) as well as Wi-Fi 7 and USB-C Thunderbolt connectivity 4.

The HP Specter x360 14-eu0010nf faces the competition
L’HP Spectre x360 14-eu0010nf is right now sold by HP France with a 3-year warranty and offers an attractive configuration/price ratio for its category where it is one of the least expensive to offer such substantial quantities of RAM and SSD storage with such a recent and efficient processor (and graphics solution), a colorful screen as faithful to such high definition/frequency, a 2-factor biometric authentication system but also Wi-Fi 7 and Thunderbolt 4 connectivity.

Chassis, connections, screen of the HP Specter x360 14-eu0010nf
Its slate blue aluminum design, sandblasted finish, compact, thin and light, can be opened 360° to transform into a tablet, and has an original, elegant and discreet look.
The screen is equipped with multi-touch touch technology: by applying the stylus provided to it (or at least one finger) to it, using pressure/gestures, you can interact with the system and software.
The touch and the Corning Gorilla Glass coating create a shiny panel which revives the colors but is sensitive to reflections in a bright environment (e.g. outdoors).
The screen would in any case be brilliant thanks to its OLED technology (DCI-P3) providing colorimetric accuracy well above average with large vertical and horizontal viewing angles, very deep blacks but also minimal latency. Associated with the frequency of 120Hz, the latency provides better fluidity than a standard 60Hz panel.
The screen, whose 16/10th format is more comfortable than the classic 16/9th, displays more information on the height, is adorned with a 2.8K definition very well suited to High Definition content because it is higher than Full HD.
Aficionados of biometric authentication will be delighted to find here a 2-factor solution that can be used via Windows Hello: the fingerprint reader and the Infrared functionality of the webcam allowing facial recognition.
The chiclet keyboard can be backlit when you need to better discern your keys.
This 2-in-1 multimedia Ultrabook, rechargeable to 50% in 45 minutes, offers good connectivity with its 2 USB-C Thunderbolt 4, its Bluetooth 5.4 and Wi-Fi 7 wireless modules (more recent and efficient than Wi-Fi 6 ax) to communicate and connect remotely, its audio port or even its USB 3.0 (USB 2.0 compatible) ensuring transfers up to 10 times faster than USB 2.0 if you plug in a USB 3.0 device.
HDMI video output point on the other hand but you can use a USB to HDMI or USB-C to HDMI adapter if necessary.
Performance, autonomy of the HP Specter x360 14-eu0010nf
The HP Specter x360 14-eu0010nf may be of interest to those looking for a compact High Definition High Fidelity laptop PC convertible into a Tablet for versatile multimedia-oriented nomadic use.
Easy to transport since it is compact, thin and light, this hybrid Ultrabook will be of interest to some wishing to equip themselves with a student laptop PC since it can last around 9 hours on battery in light use.
The storage will delight the most demanding users both in terms of speed and capacity since we find a 2 TB SSD integrated, i.e. twice more than the average to calmly install and store multiple software and files including why not creations personal.
More resistant to shock than a hard drive while being more energy efficient and quiet, an SSD is much faster. It therefore provides much better fluidity and responsiveness on a daily basis.
In practice, starts/stops, processing and software launches are faster with an SSD, as is the arrival on online game cards.
Playing light to modest games is in fact possible, as is watching photos and HD videos, thanks to the Intel Arc graphics solution inserted in the processor whose performance is superior to that of the classic Iris Xe.
But to play, concessions are necessary, such as a reduction in screen definition.
Because in 2.8K more graphics calculations are necessary than in Full HD to play, which results in a lower number of fps.
The Intel Arc takes place in the Core Ultra 7 155H, an Intel Meteor Lake processor with 16 hybrid cores and AI services which reveals its full capabilities under processor-intensive work using multi-core and AI, such as video editing or photo editing.
Especially since it is supported by a large amount of 32 GB RAM – twice as much as the average.
We therefore obtain solid general performance which will appeal to a maximum of users, particularly creators. In particular, thanks to this core, they obtain much faster processing than if we were dealing with a classic Quad/Hexa Core processor and 8/16 GB DDR4/5.
Finally, when it is heavily used (e.g. treatments), expect this versatile multimedia laptop PC targeting creatives with its easy-to-carry blue aluminum design to heat up and make itself heard.
If necessary, it can be combined with a ventilated support to limit its temperatures (remember to check the dimensions carefully!).
