Why is this not Amd yet? Battery life would be so much better! Insane they are putting 10nm chips in this when Apple is shipping 5nm and amd 7nm.

This is a great chip. Can't be compared to their tenth gen. This is one of the best laptops on the market and priced at only 1300.

The Spectre 14T with 13.5" OLED has a 3:2 (3000x2000 resolution) display. It's 3K rather than 4K like the other Spectre model displays. OP may want to update the title. Last time I checked HP did not include 4K anywhere in there description.

You are correct. This 3:2 aspect ratio is good for work and productivity as it fits more content vertically and currently this Spectre 13.5 is the only laptop, having 3:2 display with an OLED panel.

It can be pretty well compared with 10th Gen Ice Lake and the overall performance in terms of CPU, is still below entry level Ryzen processors like Ryzen 5 4500U, you will see in tons of Sub $600 laptops. The good thing is the integrated Iris XE GPU with 96 EU which is more powerful than VEGA 7 in Ryzen 7 4000U series.

Thanks for catching, will edit. Yes 3K display. It is 3:2 ratio (as opposed to usual 16:9) which is much better for productivity as there is a lot more vertical screen real estate.

No problem. I prefer this size to the other Spectre models, so plan to order. Thanks for posting.

Good deal. Can anyone tell if there's a better deal in the upcoming days? 3:2 ratio is a difference maker. I couldn't use any laptop other than Matebook X because of the 3:2 ratio. However this screen is going to break after some good use, at least this what I keep hearing from people.

Wow, just bought the laptop for $1600 a couple weeks back. Going to get BestBuy to price match it or will have to do a return and rebuy.

EDIT: Was able to successfully have it price matched and refunded the difference through Best Buy chat.

Looks like dell/hp are competing on prices only not the specs. Wtf am I or anybody gonna do with 4K on 13". Even with integrated gpu is better than last gen, is it worth $1300+tax on this?
