A second look at the Spectre x360: the best laptop HP's ever made

How much better can a 13-inch convertible laptop possibly be than this?

The HP Spectre x360 is arguably the best convertible ultrabook released this year. That's a huge compliment considering the competition has been fierce throughout 2016. HP hit it out of the ballpark with the Spectre x360, bringing a super premium and thin design to the convertible form factor, offering high-end specifications at a relatively bearable price.

As our very own Daniel Rubino claims, the HP Spectre x360 is the best 13-inch laptop this year. I agree with him, but best doesn't necessarily have to mean perfect. I'm definitely not the first to admit that the Spectre x360 has some drawbacks, some of which might not actually be drawbacks to everyone. They are to me however, and I think it's a good idea to address them first.

So let's talk about the trackpad. It's not great. It feels great, and it's definitely big enough, but it's using Synaptics for the drivers and technology, rather than Precision which Microsoft recommends. Laptops like the Surface Book and Dell XPS 13/15 use Precision touchpads, whereas HP continue to use Synaptics even on their most premium devices.
