Reviewers from techadvisor have found the following***:
The Spectre Folio is a stunning hybrid, but not one without compromise. It looks the part thanks to its distinctive leather exterior and attractive leather exterior. Build quality is great and the machine's different usage modes are all intuitive. The screen is fantastic, and its class-leading CPU is a double-edged sword. For most people, though, the Folio represents a hybrid that'll handle most tasks for a day.

The HP Spectre Folio is a flexible and well-designed 2-in-1 Windows 10 laptop. It boasts an integrated eSIM which will let you connect to 4G networks on the go, instead of having to use a mobile broadband dongle or Wi-Fi hotspot. For £1500 you’re getting something comparable to the Surface Pro 6 configuration with an Intel Core i5 processor and 8GB of RAM, but without having to drop an extra £200-odd for a Type Cover keyboard dock.
