This has thunderbolt 4 and HDMI, and 2K screen with better aspect ratio.
The HP is arguably a better brand, 1tb, probably has a longer battery life given the 1080 screen resolution, and for my purposes, a better keyboard (ms excel demands dedicated page up / down / home / end keys which it seems only HP and Asus have [lenovo puts the control key in an awkward place so not
Including that)]. Hp is touch screen too and 400 nits and not sure what the nits on this one is
But I'd wait for costco to run $100-$150 off on this (and maybe stack a $50 off $500 coupon?). I just feel better about an Acer product at $700 than $900.

I've gotten so used to touchscreen on all of my laptops.... (which is one major reason that I can't go back to Macbooks.... sad but true)

My Acer review here (username: moktadir): https://www.microcenter
VS. the Acer, the Spectre would get wayyy too hot too often and performance overall was much more inconsistent. Audio sucked on both, but the speakers on the Acer were practically useless outside of a dead-silent environment. Spectre is supposed to be better than Envy, but it's also possible the VERY early model I tried out could've just been under-tested before release, as many other versions popped up on the HP site about a month later.
I ended up buying and holding onto a Razer Book 13. I still have a bit of buyer's remorse, but at this point, I actually feel somewhat confident with the amount of work Razer put into this vs. the unsatisfactory vibe I was stuck with while using the others.
