Title: HP Envy 13 Laptop Review: Elegant metal case and solid performance
Post by: Redaktion on December 08, 2020, 16:45:06
The Envy 13 subnotebook from HP is a compact device with a lot of features. Its quad-core processor from Intel and dedicated graphics card as well as the 400 nits display should make for a a mobile work and entertainment device - if it weren't for the very reflective display.

thunderbolt3 is a big - very useful on such devices without it such notebook are much less interresting especially versus ryzen based notebook which also are lacking tb3 support.

HP Envy 13 has a Thunderbolt, but always the versions without the dGPU which is very odd, also this is nice allrounder and I am excited what it can do with 11th Intel and mx450

I think that's because those PCIe lanes are used by the dGPU and when there is not a dGPU present using those PCIe lanes then there's bandwidth for thunderbolt.

Finally an article that talks about docking stations for the Envy 13.  Finding a compatible one & trying to hook up monitors or even find info on it has been a nightmare!  Thank you, it shouldn't be this hard
