HP Envy x360 2-in-1 Ryzen 7 Laptop Review & Setup Guide

[Music] one of the many benefits of having your own youtube channel is the unique ability to be able to review many products and because our channel is a technology channel we were lucky enough to get our hands on an hp mv x360 201 laptop and we're super excited to open this up and take a look at the laptop i'm going to give you a few of the main specs for this particular laptop this hp laptop runs on the amd ryzen 7. it has 12 gigs of ddr4 ram it comes with a 512 gig solid-state hard drive and this model does not come with an optical drive but the upside this model is pre-loaded with windows 11. this model is a 15.6 full hd led touchscreen and this laptop comes with bang olufsen speakers so it should sound good and lastly this has a fingerprint reader to unlock the laptop so enough chit chat let's get this thing out of the box and test it and here's the laptop fresh out of the box and the retail price for this laptop was 749 at costco as of february 2022 and the first time you start up your new laptop you'll most likely have to update it and then connect your microsoft account and then you can start customizing your windows home screen first thing i want to show you is the bezel i love this bezel on the side here i love this how thin it is i do wish it would look like that all the way around that'd be nice and this screen is edge to edge glass pretty cool this is full hd led it's gorgeous if you look at it the blacks are really good on this it's got really good whites and this picture quality is outstanding for this price what i love about this laptop is that the audio is by bang and olefisten you get three speakers and hp audio boost now let's test the keyboard the sound of the keyboard it's pretty it's not very loud i like it i think if you wouldn't be annoying if someone was sleeping next to somebody in a bed they were beyond doing this you wouldn't hear it as much i mean it's definitely got some noise to it but it's not loud so the keyboard is not loud i like that once again there's a fingerprint sensor here to unlock this with the fingerprint we have not set that up yet but we will let's see here now this is the test i like doing this little test here can you open the screen with one finger and success and that means these hinges are smooth and not too tight it's awesome i like doing that so that's a really good sign okay let's go ahead and flip this because this actually can be a two in one here so like this now like that so you can prop it up like this straight aside like that and then if you want put this on your lap you do it this way and because once this is turned around the keyboard is not working so you have to worry about the keys being pushed here you can hear them i'm pushing them nothing's going on so that's good so it's more like a tablet here it's a thick tablet i want to talk about the weight of this laptop it's kind of heavy i got to be honest this is one of the more heavier laptops that i've seen at this 15.6 size it's definitely a durable durable laptop this is not made out of you know some cheap plastic it's heavy heavy duty if you feel this it's very heavy duty and these are the inputs on the laptop you have sd card reader usb port with hp sleep and charge this is the battery light indicator and the power connector and these are the connections on the other side of the laptop this is the audio out headphone hdmi port usb port and a usb type-c port with hp sleep and charge this laptop charges with a 65 watt power adapter and the battery life on a full charge is over 14 hours with mixed use and over 12 hours of video playback we charged our laptop right out of the box and we have yet to charge it again and we're on day number three and that's pretty impressive for battery life because battery life is my one pet peeve about laptops it always seems that laptop batteries seem to go dead at the wrong time if you know what i mean and surfing the web on this laptop is real easy this laptop comes with real tech wi-fi 6 and bluetooth 5.2 supporting gigabit data rate these are all the apps that are included with the hp laptop just uh for instance let's see we have here let me get solitaire kind of your typical stock apps so nothing too fancy here just pretty much your stock apps you're gonna get with windows 11. this webcam is hp wide vision 720p hd camera with camera shutter and integrated dual array digital microphones now we'll test the video quality with some 4k video this is 4k video [Music] it's not a 4k monitor but it does look gorgeous though i tell you what for this price point this video quality is very impressive in the video graphics or amd radeon graphics integrated very impressive [Music] for 749 i was not expecting this quality but it's a home run so now the last thing we're going to do is an audio test test those speakers this is our smart home tour 2022. everything we're going to show you in this video all smart devices all the installations and wiring is on our youtube channel so when you're done watching this video check out all our videos and playlists on our ultimate tech hub youtube channel we hope you enjoyed this video yeah so we've gone over everything about this pretty much just really really beautiful amd ryzen 7 so you're getting some speed out of this you got 12 gigs of ram can't go wrong with that it's a good number to have so i did i do wish it would have had a bigger hard drive one terabyte should be standard nowadays for most laptops or desktops so but understandably for the price point at 749 512 gigabytes that's what you're going to get so anyways love it i recommend it guys so there'll be a link in description down below for you to bring by this and um once again this is not a sponsored video hp did not send this to us for free to do a review we're doing this on our own but uh i do like it a lot so all right guys thanks so much for watching and i'll see you guys in the next video real soon peace
