Otherwise, theres also the Microsoft Surface Book, but since this one costs 5. Yoga or Spectre, it cant be included in the same bowl as these other two. The HP Spectre x. Broadwell model. The Skylake update is nearly identical to that unit we tested in every way, with two exceptions HP added an Ash Silver color option, and made a slight tweak to the keyboard. Previously the key that turned the illumination on or off was always lit, and now it can be switched off. In other words, the major difference between the Broadwell and the Skylake update is the Ash Silver color scheme and the Skylake hardware, which translates into slightly faster performance and longer battery life.

Thanks Ash for sharing these with us This should be useful to those of you undecided between the two options, and if you have any questions, get in touch in the comments section at the end of the article and you will get your answers from myself or Ash. The Yoga 9. 00 left and the Spectre X3. But heres what someone who owns them both have to say about the. I bought the HP Spectre x. Broadwell i. 7, QHD, 8. GB RAM, 5. 12. GB SSD, here in the US, for 1. I was having Wi. Fi issues staying connected and so I kept returningexchanging the unit. It turns out that my model, that came pre installed with Windows 1. HP quietly fixed the problem by updating it to an older driver. Then when the Skylake6th gen Spectre came out 2 weeks ago, I was able to exchange my Broadwell model for the same configuration above, but with Skylake and the beautiful really beautiful in person, though 7. Ash Silver and Copper color. Then this past weekend, I decided to try the new Lenovo Yoga 9. Best Buy also had for sale a bit early in their stores. The Yoga 9. 00 costs 1. Skylake Spectre. The Yoga I have now is the QHD screen, Skylake i. GB RAM twice as much as the Spectre and 5. GB SSD. So far I am really liking the Yoga and plan to keep it and return the Spectre. The Spectre in Ash Silver and Copper is truly the most beautiful looking laptop I have ever seen. You must see it in person to understand how amazing it looks. Pictures online do not do it justice. The color actually changes, depending on what lighting youre in. It goes from a champagne like color to a metallic looking dark brown. And then the copper hinges and the areas around the sides just truly set it off and makes anything else sitting next to it look boring. I went into Star. Bucks with it last week and I had a total of about 6 people men and women ask me what it was and say Wow, that is really nice The clip below shows how the Ash Silver model looks like in real life. So why get rid of the Spectre Well for starters, it gets too hot around the left palm rest for me when the system is taxed hard. When charging, the top left corner and side get even hotter, but thats not such a big deal because my fingers dont travel up there. But the palm rest getting hot bugs me. And this is the third HP that has given me too hot palm rest problems. The Spectre is also just a bit too heavy for tablet mode to feel rightgood. Tablet mode for the Yoga 9. That little bit of weight difference matters a lot in tablet mode and this is coming from a 61 tall athletic guy. Then, with the Spectre I have to turn the brightness down to zero yes, zero to get about 4. On the Yoga, I am getting 1 hour for every 1. On both units Im using a Bluetooth mouse, have Wi. Fi on and Chrome open with 5 to 6 tabs. I have not ran the Yoga all the way down yet, as I did with the Spectre, so I dont know if it does the same thing or perhaps its a Windows 1. Spectre, I could only get down to 7 battery and then the system goes into hibernation. I tried several times to change the settings in power management, but when I select anything below 7, it automatically goes back to 7 upon exit. The HP Spectre in Ash Silver. The Spectre is so nice looking that Im always concerned with scratching up the paint. The keys are painted and I have read about at least one case where a user stated that his keys began to wear after 3 months of heavy typing. Also having been through over half a dozen Spectres now, I can confidently state that HP has a quality control issue. Im referring to my past Broadwell models, but two of the units I had had sleeping pixels. Four of them had a loose panel on the bottom, in the rear. Three of them had minor scratch marks on the body. Two of them had bubbles in the Chromed hinges. With the Yoga 9. 00, my first unit has been my only unit, because it is flawless. No defects and all of the software and drivers work right out of the box. On the Spectre, many apps Ive installed Kaspersky, Revo Uninstaller, CCleaner, etc. QHD screen. Fuzzy icons, windows and texts. To fix this, you have to change the system wide scaling from its default 2. Things start looking right, but smaller. On the Yoga, the scaling was almost just right in most of the apps I installed. The Yoga is not as pretty as the Spectre, but it does look pretty nice too. This is the Lenovo Yoga 9. Screens. The Spectres QHD display has a lower resolution at 2. Yoga 9. 00s 3. 20. However, after 2 months on the Spectre QHD screen and now going on 2 weeks for the Yoga screen, I honestly do not see a difference and I am using the same exact apps and even tried the exact same wallpaper image files. In fact, I feel that overall these displays are very much alike in my eyes. They are both glossy screens and look good indoors. The only time I recall having trouble viewing either of them was at a Starbucks with the Skylake x. I was sitting with my back to a huge glass window and the incoming sunlight made it very difficult to see the screen, so I had turn the brightness up substantially. As far as I can tell, the colors and everything else pretty much look the same on both devices. I have read about prior Lenovo Yoga screens having problems with some colors such as yellow. I have not noticed any such problems. Keyboard. As far as the keyboard on the Yoga, I personally liked the Spectre keyboard better, but then again I used it daily for 2 months and am now trying to get used to the Yoga.
