Where is the balancing point for laptops? Where does the touchscreen and brushed aluminium finish start to outweigh the need for unbridled power and portability? Can Full HD and wafer-thinness really step into the void left by an underperforming battery?...

We'll say this, though: The HP Spectre XT TouchSmart Ultrabook is a milestone. Watch the ultrabook market over the next year. Watch as heavyweight chips join incredible screens as the norm rather than the exception. If you pick up an HP Spectre XT TouchS...

I was a big fan of Ultrabooks—or at least the concept of Ultrabooks —when they first debuted in 2012 (see ' What is an Ultrabook? '). After all, who doesn't like the idea of sliver-thin laptops that run Windows? Unfortunately, it seems like the definition...
With a large and lovely touchscreen display and eye-catching, brushed-aluminum design, we really wanted to love the HP SpectreXT TouchSmart 15-4010nr. Unfortunately the terrible battery life and poor audio let it down. And because the HP SpectreXT TouchSm...

The HP Spectre XT TouchSmart is the bigger and beefier brother of the non-touch, 13-inch laptop of the same name that steps up the gorgeous all-metal design to 15-inches and includes a 10-point touch screen. Is this enough to make you splash the cash o...
As soon as you get the machine out of the box, you'll realise that it's a well constructed piece of kit: the all-metal thin chassis and brushed-silver finish scream quality, and it's all topped off with a solid backlit keyboard and plenty of ports along the side, including a Thunderbolt port for super fast data transfer.The main attraction on the TouchSmart is the 15-inch, 1080p 10-point touchscr...
One major gripe we had with the laptop was the trackpad. We had issues with scrolling and tracking, not to mention the feel of the click itself: it just feels clanky and hollow and not at all as solid as the rest of the laptop.Even with the Beats logo adorning the right hand side of the speaker grill, it's still not a qualifier of sound quality. The speakers on the TouchSmart sounded tinny when c...
HP has crafted a beautiful laptop, with a gorgeous, responsive 1080p touchscreen that's let down by its trackpad, battery life and enormous price. If you're not looking to do any major gaming, or you won't be too far away from a power outlet, then HP's...

HP’s Spectre XT TouchSmart 15-4000ea is certainly an attractive and well-built laptop. However, it does stretch even Intel's vague definition of the term ‘Ultrabook’ to the limit. And beyond. As you might expect, the HP Spectre XT TouchSmart 15-4000ea...

There a couple of things that we’re going to do our best to leave at the door for this HP Spectre XT TouchSmart review. The first is Windows 8. This is a Windows 8 machine. There’s no two ways about it. If you buy the HP Spectre XT TouchSmart, it’s go...
Looks nice, works really well. Lovely screen, great keyboard...
The design is a flawed and wobbly in places. The touchscreen is a total waste of money...

El Reg looked at HP's 13in Spectre XT Ultrabook in October last year and liked it a lot. What you're looking at here, then, is a meatier version with a bigger display, touchscreen support, more ports and the inevitable Windows 8. I like it a lot. As usua...
In terms of thickness and weight, this is unquestionably an Ultrabook. But once you open up the Spectre XT TouchSmart and switch it on, it feels like you're working with a larger, beefier notebook that suffers few of the obvious Ultrabook compromises. Co...
