![]() The reward of this measure is a brilliant white as well as a good (even though not overwhelming) display brightness. This phenomenon can be reduced by adding an additional white subpixel in the display matrix – as we can see in the macro shot of the Envy display. This classic color arrangement does also result in a dampening of the light and therefore a lower luminance for white contents. The majority of panels only have red, green and blue sub pixels all three colors combined result in the color white. We can see another specialty of the display under the microscope. The Envy 13 is also available with a matte FHD panel (as well as 8 instead of 4 GB RAM) HP charges 1,000 Euros (~$1092) for both configurations. Icons and fonts scale well in Windows 10, so the picture is easily visible and razor-sharp on the 13.3-inch screen. 3200x1800 pixels result in a pixel density of 269 PPI. One highlight of the HP Envy 13-d000ng is certainly its (glossy) quad-HD display. ![]() Another interesting competitor actually comes from HP: The HP EliteBook 820 G2-J8R58EA is currently third in our subnotebook Top 10. The QHD-version of the XPS 13-9350 just missed our Top 10 ranking at 87 percent, but we still use it as a reference in this article due to the similar display. HP’s pricing certainly challenges Dell and Apple: The brand-new XPS 13-9350 ( FHD version) as well as the MacBook Pro Retina 13, which is still excellent, are our current leaders in the subnotebook segment. The retail price of 1,000 Euros (~$1092) was particularly surprising, since it is rather inexpensive compared to the rivals. We were therefore eager to review the new Envy 13, and HP sent us a configuration with the Intel Core i5-6200U, 4 GB RAM and a glossy QHD-IPS panel. Larger devices (like the recent HP Envy 17-n107ng) on the other hand are regular guests in our editorial offices and can usually manage good, but rarely excellent overall scores. Our last review of a 13.3-inch device from HP’s multimedia-oriented Envy series was actually three years ago. ![]() For the original German review, see here.
