The HP Spectre x360 2-in-1 16″ has a physical footprint of 357 mm wide by 245 mm tall, with a 19 mm thickness and a total volume of 1661.835 cm³. It weighs 2150 g and uses an active cooling system rather than a fanless design. The laptop includes a backlit keyboard for low-light use and is covered by a 3-year warranty. It does not feature weather sealing or splash protection.
The laptop features a 16-inch OLED/AMOLED touch screen with a resolution of 3840 x 2400 px and a pixel density of 283 ppi. Typical brightness is rated at 400 nits, and the panel includes an anti-reflection coating to reduce glare. The system supports up to 4 simultaneous displays.
The system is equipped with 16 GB of DDR4 RAM running at 3200 MHz, expandable up to 64 GB, alongside a 2048 GB NVMe SSD connected via PCIe 4.0. The CPU runs at 4 x 2.2 GHz and 8 x 1.6 GHz across 16 threads, with a turbo clock of 5 GHz, though hardware-level multithreading is not supported. On the graphics side, the GPU carries 4 GB of GDDR6 VRAM, a base clock of 1550 MHz boosting to 2050 MHz, and delivers 4.198 TFLOPS of floating-point performance, with a texture rate of 131.2 GTexels/s and a pixel rate of 65.6 GPixel/s. The GPU is built on a 6 nm semiconductor process and supports DirectX 12 Ultimate, XeSS (XMX), and 64-bit operation.
In Geekbench 6, the processor scores 10125 in the multi-core test and 2463 in the single-core test. PassMark results show an overall score of 18616, with a single-thread score of 3456.
The laptop provides two Thunderbolt 4 ports with USB 4 40 Gbps throughput and one USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-A port, while there are no USB 3.2 Gen 1, USB 4 20 Gbps, or Thunderbolt 3 ports present. Video output is handled by a single HDMI 2.1 port, with no DisplayPort, mini DisplayPort, or VGA connector available. Wireless connectivity covers Wi-Fi 4, 5, 6, and 6E alongside Bluetooth 5.3, and the machine also supports AirPlay. An external memory slot is included, though there is no RJ45 Ethernet port.
The laptop is powered by an 83 Wh battery with a rated life of 10 hours. It includes sleep-and-charge USB ports, allowing connected devices to be charged even when the laptop is powered off or in sleep mode. A MagSafe power adapter is not supported.
The laptop includes a 5MP front camera with 3D facial recognition and a fingerprint scanner for biometric authentication, backed by a dual-microphone setup. Audio is handled by stereo speakers and a 3.5 mm headset jack, though Dolby Atmos and S/PDIF output are not present. The GPU supports ray tracing, while DLSS is not available. Motion sensing is covered by a gyroscope and accelerometer, but there is no compass or GPS. No stylus is included in the box, and voice commands, an optical disc drive, are also absent.
The laptop CPU has a TDP of 35W, a clock multiplier of 22, a maximum temperature of 100 °C, and uses big.LITTLE technology, though the multiplier is not unlocked. It carries 18 MB of L3 cache and 10 MB of L2 cache, supports ECC memory across 2 memory channels, and is compatible with instruction sets including SSE 4.1, SSE 4.2, AVX, AES, FMA3, F16C, and MMX, along with NX bit support. Maximum RAM speed reaches 5200 MHz. The GPU is identified as the Iris Xe Graphics 96EU, built on Generation 12.7 architecture with 96 execution units, 1024 shading units, 64 TMUs, and 32 ROPs. GPU memory runs at 1750 MHz with an effective speed of 14000 MHz and a 64-bit bus delivering up to 112 GB/s of bandwidth. The system supports Intel Resizable BAR, stereoscopic 3D, multi-display output, OpenCL 3.0, OpenGL 4.6, and Double Precision Floating Point, and includes integrated graphics. The overclocked PassMark result is 19346, the transistor count stands at 7200 million, and there is no LHR or RGB lighting.
