Pros and Cons

HP ENVY 13

Strengths

It's a lot of laptop for your money in terms of what you get not in terms of size and weight because it's very thin and very light
You get a pretty good deal with the core i7 quad core 15 watt ultrabooks CPU inside, 8 gigs of ram DDR4, and a 256 gig nvme SSD
The Microsoft precision trackpad is definitely a plus and it's a nice looking screen that's surprisingly bright, often 4k displays particularly with HP
Battery life on this will depend on when you get the full HD or the 4k display option, but it has a 53 hour battery which is healthy for your premium ultra book
The laptop has pretty good banging on some branded quad speakers which is a thing that HP has been doing

Weaknesses

You can't upgrade the RAM after the fact because it's soldered on
The rubber strips along the bottom are difficult to remove and may need to be replaced
It doesn't have Thunderbolt 3, but USBC offers an unprecedented display out hubs and all that sort of thing
Opening up the laptop is a bit of a pain due to the adhesive self-destructing rubber strips
The thermals are not perfect, with the laptop sometimes getting too hot to touch above the keyboard area

Dell Latitude 15 7530

Strengths

The Dell Latitude 15 7350 has a carbon fiber chassis that is very rigid and sturdy, showing little to no flex.
The laptop's lid opens easily with one hand and houses a webcam, IR face recognition sensor, proximity sensor, and privacy shutter.
The keyboard and touchpad are a great combo with long key travel and clicky feedback for the board.
The laptop has a well-selected input/output configuration with two Thunderbolt 4 ports, two USB type-A 3.2 generation 1 ports, an audio jack, optional smart card reader, HDMI 2.0 port, and a SIM card tray.
The full HD IPS panel provides good viewing angles and no PWM usage.
The laptop's battery unit lasts for 10 hours and 36 minutes of web browsing or 7 hours and 13 minutes of video playback with the larger 58 Wh battery.

Weaknesses

The metal variant of the laptop weighs significantly more than the carbon fiber model, increasing by around 200 grams.
The igpu does not perform well in keeping the temps in check, running very hot and maxing out at 97°C during stress tests.
The base gets quite warm with a hot spot on the function keys that reaches 47.5°C during stress testing.
The fan is quiet but can't handle high power limits, leading to CPU throttling.
The display's mid-max brightness might be too low for bright rooms or outdoor use.
The color reproduction is not good, covering only about half of the sRGB gamut.

HP ENVY 13

The HP Envy 13 is a well-rounded laptop that balances performance with affordability. With a starting price of $750, this ultrabook packs a punch, featuring a Core i7 quad-core CPU, 8GB RAM, and a 256GB NVMe SSD. Available in full HD or 4K display options, the Envy 13 is also thin and light, making it an attractive choice for those seeking a premium laptop without breaking the bank.

Dell Latitude 15 7530

The Dell Latitude 15 7350 is a laptop that embodies premium qualities in design, input/output, and performance. Its carbon fiber chassis exudes a sense of luxury, while its robust features like the glass-covered touchpad and NFC coil hint at advanced functionality. However, despite its solid build, the device falls short in terms of display brightness and color coverage. A Core i5 processor powers the laptop, but it struggles with heat management, which might be a concern for heavy users.
