Chassis, connections, screen of the HP Envy x360 14-fa0007nf

Openable 360° to transform into a tablet, this 2-in-1 laptop has an elegant, sober and original appearance thanks to its compact light silver design, thin and light, sandblasted anodized finish.

The screen adopts multi-touch touch technology through which you can control the PC by simply applying at least one finger on it, using gestures/pressures.
As it is touchscreen, the screen has a glossy treatment which gives punch to the colors but is sensitive to reflections in a bright environment (eg outdoors).

The screen will delight those looking for a High Fidelity High Definition panel since it adopts a 2.8K definition superior to Full HD, associated with a 16:10th format that is more comfortable in height than the standard 16:9th.
The screen also benefits from OLED DCI-P3 specifications providing much more faithful colorimetry than average with great black depth, significant vertical and horizontal viewing angles as well as low latency. The latter is coupled with a 120Hz refresh rate higher than the classic 60Hz, which reinforces overall fluidity.

Through the Infrared functionality of the webcam and Windows Hello technology, you can biometrically authenticate yourself by facial recognition.

Those more concerned about their privacy will be relieved to be able to hide the webcam behind a privacy shutter when not using it.

The chiclet keyboard can obviously be backlit when you need to better distinguish your keys.

The connectivity integrated into this multimedia-oriented 2-in-1 portable PC is good, consisting of 2 USB-C, a practical HDMI video output to easily connect it to a monitor or a TV for example, and Bluetooth wireless modules. 5.3 and Wi-Fi 6E ax to communicate and connect remotely, an audio port but also 2 USB 3.0 (USB 2.0 compatible) ensuring transfers are carried out up to 10 times faster only USB 2.0 if USB 3.0 devices are plugged into it.

Performance, autonomy of the HP Envy x360 14-fa0007nf

The HP Envy x360 14-fa0007nf may appeal to those looking for a compact High Definition High Fidelity laptop computer convertible into a tablet with high performance in terms of multimedia-oriented processor.

Easy to transport because it is compact, thin and light, this mobile computer, as easy to transport as an Ultrabook, is able to last around 7 hours on battery in light use. Some wishing in search of a Student laptop 2-in-1 that performs well in terms of processor may therefore be interested.

More precisely, we find an AMD processor integrated Hawk Point Ryzen 5 8640HS Hexa Core associated with 16 GB of RAM.
We thus obtain solid general performance capable of satisfying demanding users.

Creative people will appreciate that the multimedia processing carried out by this core is carried out faster than if we were dealing with a Quad Core processor. We clearly feel the difference in areas that are intensive in CPU and RAM resources and take advantage of multi-core, such as photo editing or video editing.

On the other hand, no graphics acceleration is provided by this hybrid laptop since it does not include a dedicated graphics card.
Here all the graphics are managed by the Radeon 760M graphics module inserted directly into the Ryzen 5.

In practice you can watch HD photos and videos.
Or even play light to modest games if you agree to adjustments to benefit from good playability.
We will favor a reduction in the definition of the screen. Because a greater number of calculations are necessary in 2.8K than in Full HD, which results in a lower number of fps.

On the storage side, HP opts for the same solution as many models on the market: a 512 GB SSD.
If you need more space, you can use an external storage module. Opting for a USB 3.0/USB-C device then represents an interesting solution for obtaining fast transfers.

Still, the contribution of the SSD is very clear compared to a hard drive on a daily basis.
Thanks to the SSD, starting/stopping, launching software, carrying out processing or even accessing online game cards is quick.
The SSD therefore provides very good responsiveness and fluidity on a daily basis.

Finally, expect a little heat and noise when this multimedia-oriented laptop PC is pushed hard (e.g. processing).
To contain its temperatures, it can be associated, if necessary, with a ventilated support (remember to check the dimensions carefully!).
