  • HD display Responsive touchenabled screen, Sturdy metal design
  • Expensive, Dim screen
  • The HP Spectre XT TouchSmart might be pricy, but it has some good kit to justify the price. The Full HD screen is well-suited to movie lovers and its touch abilities mean you can get the best from Windows 8. It's not the most powerful machine in the worl...

  • Attractive appearance, Clever audio design, Incredible screen, 1080p resolution, Fully touch enabled
  • Heavy for an ultrabook, Enormous for an ultrabook, Irritating touchpad, Slightly lacking power
  • 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...

  • 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...

  • Full HD display, Responsive touchenabled screen, Sturdy metal design
  • Expensive, Screen is a little dim
  • The HP Spectre XT Touchsmart boasts a slim, metal body, a decent serving of power and a Full HD touch-enabled screen for swiping around Windows 8. It's let down by its high price, but you still get quite a bit for the money....

  • 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...

  • 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...

  • 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
  • If it were £300 less we’d happily pay for it. As it is, there’s not enough in the way of value here...

  • The Spectre XT TouchSmart by HP is a mighty expensive notebook if you ask us (and many other reviewers). It offers notable pros, but they can't erase the fact that this device puts on an uninspired show in the battery and GPU department. But if you don't...
