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

HP OmniBook X Flip

Strengths

The Kraken Point is nice, I like it.
Latticeless keyboards have been excellent for typing out documents, emails, and the like.
They are back lit, so if you want to get it worked on an airplane or or in a dimly lit environment, you definitely can do that.
The pens work very well.
Excellent choices, especially as we're going back to school.
