I'm so glad Intel beats AMD's cheap butt for gaming because that's what I do! Helps bring prices down for both companys and since Intel beats AMD for gaming it's good news for me.
@@AngelOfDeath420 but not by much, which is not worth the price premium you pay over Ryzen. Not only that but you have to buy a pretty decent CPU cooler to see that performance difference as well. Have fun with that.
Guys! When I first got this laptop, I was put off with the yellowish screen; I also noticed other users had the same issue with this model. However, I'm glad to report that this was easily fixed in the screen calibration. Just search for display setting and follow the rest of the steps.
Please, replace video playback part with 3D CAD performance review. Ie. Fusion360 and rotate some complex part. It would make really good sense of the actual performance of combined cpu/gpu performance.
They should be about the same. 15" might have slightly better cooling, but I don't think you'd notice the difference. The main difference it that the RAM is upgradable on the 15.6" version. 13" has soldered RAM.
Haha, I feel you I have an 2011 HP DV7, works amazing even now. Theremals weren't the best out of the box, but applied thermal paste a couple years after purchase. The speakers with the subwoofers are still one of the best on the market :)
Purchased this here in India for 1000 USD. But it's worth the money - fast, screen is bright (400 nits) with accurate colors, battery lasts 8-9 hours on an average work day. Moreover I can sync it with my Samsung Galaxy note 10 using Link to Windows. Happy with my decision and the fact that I didn't go for macbook air.
Hi. I have an old 15.6 inch HP laptop with a 16:9 aspect ratio and I find it comfortable enough for my work. I was planning on buying the Envy x360 13.3 inch model. Can someone please tell me if it is an uncomfortably small screen? I am worried about seeing much less content and scrolling around much more than I do now which would be hectic for work.
Nice review, I have watched a few different reviews on this by different people and all the reviews are the 13.3 inch version. Any idea why the 15 inch does not get any reviews? I wish HP would make a 14 inch version, that would have been the sweet spot.
Ive been searching for reviews on the 15' but found only one. If you follow Andrew Marc David you should see one from him soon...he mentioned that he's working on one to be posted here soon. Check out this one ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-ZHeErZHrD1E.html
Your way to describe things is on point. I have seen so many reviews on HP ENVY X360 but I like yours. I also brought this pc on last month for ₹81500($1090 appx.) in India. Best feature of this laptop is its compact size and high quality display. You will not regret to buy it. Just go for it. Also I am SUBSCRIBED. 😊
@@m_bobby i5 evo processor 11th Gen, 8 GB RAM, 512 SSD. No brother, gaming is not my purpose. I only watch contents online and offline and the basic stuffs. Battery life is pretty good and one of the best.
Got the 4700U / 16GB / 512Gb model just over a month ago and it is a great machine! Performance is awesome, and it the cheap Surface Pens that sell on Amazon work out of the box with this. Great price, great performance and nice size!
Hello, I got mine a few days ago 4500 u/8gb/512.... I was wondering if could let me know...Can you actually charge it through USB type c connector? I tried but it tells me "not compatible"....thought that perhaps you could help me out😅
very nice to finally see AMD in nice looking laptops with nice screens and not just clunky netbook look-a-like crap ones, just wish they would STOP with all the stupid stickers where some of them usually don't come off easy
Lenovo Ideapad 330s 15.6" Laptop, Windows 10, AMD Ryzen 5 2500U Quad-Core Processor, 8GB Memory, 256GB Storage, or Lenovo Ideapad 3i, 14.0" FHD, Intel Core i5-10210U, 8GB, 512GB SSD, Platinum Grey, Windows 11 Home. They are both 450$ in walmart. which one do you think is better?
Oof I just got the older model which has a huge bottom bazel compared to this. But at least the pen was included and the USB ports don't have moving elements. But also, it doesn't charge through USB-C
M Z even the newer model comes with a pen included in the retail model. Also the older model is very weak and is really thick compared to the new model. And there are no issues with the moving part in the usb. If I were you I would return it if possible and get the new one.
such a pitty its VRAM limited... i just bought one and its 512mb vram 7,4gb ram, we know in desktop APUs it doesnt matter because when it needs more VRAM i will take it from the RAM but thats not happening here, im VRAM limited in Warhammer Vermintide 2, I just need 600mb of VRAM to play that game without stuttering the whole time and my unit doesnt use more than 500mb and it's only using 6gb of ram while playing... so i have 1,5gb doing nothing while im having terrible stuttering because of low VRAM, awesome 1000USD for that stupid limiter, you can't even change it in the BIOS
Figured I'd mention Costco has the 15.6" version on sale for $600 ($200 off). Seems like a great deal given that's cheaper than any other laptop with the 4500u chip. I used my stepmoms membership to get one for my grandpa. Hope he likes it!!
Excellent video. Ryzen CPUs never stopped to impressed me. Now the power efficiency is becoming close to Intel... such a blast! My next laptop will have a ryzen cpu!
Have you noticed any anomaly in the display? If you don't adjust the angle properly, you see part of screen already darker. Poor edge visibility. Pity, i had doubt about Nits of Brightness, and tried to play with settings and colors. is it because of the glossy panel? Or its a cheap quality?
Hello Josh, quick question for you; I purchased the ENVY x360 2-in-1 13.3" Touchscreen Laptop - Intel Evo Platform - Intel Core i7 - 8GB Memory - 512GB SSD to make movies and to use embroidery software will this computer handle this? The processor System Memory RAM Speed: is 3200 megahertz, is this fast enough for what I’m trying to do? Also, I paid $749, did I get a good deal?
Hi, just tried a friends envy (ryzen 4500, 8 gb, 256 gb ssd), it gets very very hot during the initial charging phase(0 to 50%), not possible to use on lap during that time. Is it a common thing for this series or a exceptional laptop he should return. same with yours? comments guys
I have not seen this mentioned/tested here, maybe because people do not expect it from ultraportable laptops. So- the screen on this laptop supports freesync. The range is 40-60Hz I think, which is perfect for the iGPU it has.
Got this laptop as soon as it was available on the HP site. One thing to note is that to keep freesync, and if installing newer drivers from Amd Site, do not do a clean install of the drivers, otherwise you will lose the freesync functionality. Clean installing driver keeps the overlay metric functionality but loses freesync, and doing a non fresh install of driver, keeps freesync but loses the overlay functionality (but can use rivatuner and hwinfo for that instead)
Is it worth buying considering i m student n for light to moderate usage n playing game GTA 5 will be highest game played in terms of demanding games n few other basic games, no heavy video editing or photo editing mainly media consumption n collage work
HP. Never again. I've had 3 HP laptops and all of them suffered from severe overheating. From Athlon to a Core i5 4th gen and a Core i5 8th gen. HP is crap.
Intel is done if they can't do better my next laptop will be AMD . That's real on the go gaming . AMD is making a our dreams come true . Imagine having 5 Hour battery life in a slim laptop with a beefed up version of the of the gpu uses less power and game 1000 times better then Intel's apu ever could , On the go withought a charger I've been waiting for a gaming solution that has long battery life and games properly PC games . If streaming gets better its probably could help too
hybrid laptops are always garbage, windows does not work good on touch screen mode. I would not waste money on something won't work. they should drop this stupid idea on touch screen on laptops and just sell it without this gimmick. people won't use it anyway if I want something touch I buy some iPad not a laptop.
Careful! I bought this laptop, but the 15.6 inch variant with ryzen 7 and 16gb ram. I have to say I was very disappointed with the display at 250 nits and the colour was way off. 400 nits not in Europe. Final straw was poor connection for college streaming. It kept cutting out but my two year old hp pavillion was working fine for the same online lecture! Luckily, I was able to return it despite using it and swapped it for the mac book pro although paying dot more, but wow 500 nits, like night and day. Guys lesson here is even though processor is great there is a trade off in display and WiFI ac. Pen is a bit gimmicky and you'll never use the 360 screen in flip mode given the poor display. Basically you get what you pay for. It's a shame considering the processor but be warned!
I think price for specs, the ASUS Zenbook Q407IQ-BR5N4 is a far better deal, $699 full price of $549 on sale at Best Buy, it has the same CPU but with a dedicated Nvidia MX350 GPU.
Is HP envy 13" a right choice for Adobe Premiere Pro? I'm really confused between AMD and intel. I don't care much about export time, but playback smoothness and no shuttering is important.
From personal experience, I have a Surface Pro that has a screen with less than 300 nits. I would say 300 nits is enough if you are mainly working inside a building. However, if you do work outside often with direct sunlight, then you should invest in a 400 nit screen. Just remember to consider your work scenarios to determine what the best option for you is.
Brilliant review . Specially Linux Would you do me a favor and answer my very important question . Does its USB c port able to run for example 2 external hard drives, external monitor, mouse, keyboard and may be an ex speaker in the same time?. Another way to my question I don't need to carry a USB c hub that need's power to run but I need to carry a very tiny USB c with mulitiple outs (HDMI, AUX, USB A ....) in may bag and to be able to run all these things through this labtop's USB c on the go. Does its USB c has this much power or wattage? or how much the limit for this labtop or all labtops if there is a general answer for all type C's? . Thanks again and I'm waiting your answer kindlly.
I wish more AMD Ryzen 4000 laptop will be available in my country. The HP envy 4500u is somehow being more expensive than the core i5 version in my country, what the heck.
It would be great if u could review the Dell Inspiron 5406. Because it also has a two in one design but it's running on intel 11 gen CPU with xe graphics. Nevertheless, that also cost similar amount of money.
Since the ram is soldered does it go baad like the normal ones? How easy and expensive is it to get replaced ? Would it be able to run unity3d and unreal game engine for basic dev purposes?
Sir, I also bought the same model. Do this have a tilt in one side of hinge? As I noticed this issue and brought this to seller notice and he opened other fresh piece of laptop and found same kind of tilt. Can you please confirm whether this tilt is design issue or I got a defective piece.
Lon, any word on Asus 4000 series APU Vivobooks? I do know that they exist, as they are already in parts of Asia, and there are reviews, which unfortunately are only in Thai. They tend to come in at a good price point and are often on sale. I've actually got a 2500u model which I am pretty pleased with, but want to keep up to date with how they evolve. Hope you do a review.
