Choosing the right laptop for you is difficult for so many different reasons. If you don’t take the time to figure out exactly what you’re looking for in a portable computer, you can end up with something ill-suited for your needs. With Apple, HP, Dell, and Acer all offering a wide range of computers, it can be easy to get overwhelmed by the specs. The fact of the matter, however, is that most folks are really just looking for an affordable laptop that won’t let them down. And with this huge HP flash sale going on right now, it’s a great time to pick up a great laptop computer for a great price.

With steep discounts on the mighty HP Spectre x360, the HP Envy, and many other solid computers, it’s far too easy to save on a new notebook or 2-in-1 laptop. We’ve rounded up a few of our favorite discounts from this sale, but if you’re not yet ready to pull the trigger on a fancy new laptop, you can enter for a chance to win the luxurious HP Spectre Folio in all its leathery glory.

If you are looking for one of the best laptops this sale has to offer, look no further than this Spectre model. HP recently came out with the 2019 Spectre x360 laptop and we liked it enough to give it an astounding 10 out of 10 in our review. The configuration being discounted in this sale is actually the 2018 iteration of that same computer, however, which is why the price has dropped so significantly. Don’t let it’s age fool you, though, this 2018 2-in-1 laptop is still a really good piece of tech. With an Intel Core i5 processor, 8 GB of RAM, and a 256 GB SSD, this convertible laptop will still work great.

HP’s Spectre x360 16 looks like best new Windows laptop 11 yet, with one caveat

Windows 11 won't be available as an upgrade until 2022, leaving a few months of time for new laptops to take the limelight. HP just announced what might be one of the most compelling new options, the HP Spectre x360 16.

The Spectre x360 line already contains some of the most premium 2-in-1 convertible laptops you can buy, whether that's the portable Spectre x360 14 or the high-powered Spectre x360 15. A 16-inch model, though, is new to the mix -- and Windows 11 is far from the only intriguing new feature.

They're almost the same size. They weigh almost the same. They're both 360-degree convertible 2-in-1s with support for active pens. So, why are HP's Envy x360 13 and Spectre x360 13 so similar? It's what's inside that counts here, and there are enough differences that these two similar machines are aimed at different users. Neither shows up on our best laptops or best 2-in-1s lists, but that doesn't mean they're not excellent machines.

The Envy x360 13 is made for creators, people who do CPU-intensive tasks like video editing, while the Spectre x360 13 is made for discerning productivity users who want a bit of style. But is one of these laptops better than the other?

HP Envy x360 15 vs. HP Spectre x360 15

HP has not just one but two 15-inch convertibles, the Envy x360 15 and the Spectre x360 15, and while they share the same format, they're very different laptops. HP has been aiming the Envy line at creators and the Spectre at discerning productivity users, and so choosing between them can be a challenge. We've taken the time to break down the differences to help you decide which is best for you.

Both of these 15-inch, 360-degree, convertible 2-in-1s are interesting laptops. They work perfectly well as a traditional clamshell, are awesome in media mode for bingeing Netflix, and tablet mode is great, thanks to the expansive screen -- if you prop them up on a surface. Tent mode seems unwieldy, suspending such a large laptop on its edges, but it's otherwise a size and style that adds real value to a 15-inch laptop.
