Product Overview

HP ENVY x360 15 (15z-ee000) is a compact 2-in-1 laptop powered by AMD Ryzen 5 or 7 mobile processor. In roughly the size of a clamshell ENVY 15, the ENVY x360 15 trades some performance for versatility.
Unlike the ENVY 15, the ENVY x360 15 sports a numerical keyboard, which further accentuate the level of flexibility that HP seeks to offer. Its AMD Ryzen 7 4700U CPU benchmarks higher than Intel Core i7-10750H while being more efficient.
For a more powerful and sleek alternative, HP markets the Spectre x360 15. From other marques, Lenovo's Yoga 9i (15IMH-5) is worth consideration; Dell's Inspiron 7506 is ostensibly a lower-end unit that nonetheless packs a punch, too.
The ENVY x360 15 also has an Intel-powered variant.

Reviewers from digitaltrends have found:
The Envy x360 15 is an attractive, well-built, and very powerful laptop for $1,000. But unfortunately, HP didn't choose a display that lives up to the laptop's alleged focus on creators. It's not as fast in CPU-intensive apps, but its GPU will help it burn through processes that can take advantage of it.
Pros
  • Attractive, well-built design
  • Excellent performance
  • Great keyboard and touchpad
  • Excellent battery life
Cons
  • No Thunderbolt 4
  • No Thunderbolt 3

Reviewers from laptopmag have found:
The HP Envy x360 15 is a solid choice for mobile professionals or college students who need something relatively lightweight. Thanks to its AMD 5700U processor, the notebook can handle most of your work and entertainment needs. The 720p IR webcam is par for the course for integrated webcams. It is far less expensive than the Dell Latitude 7320 (starting $1,486)
Pros
  • Sleek, lightweight design
  • Solid performance
  • Good battery life
Cons
  • Lack of security features
  • Lacks a stylus

Reviewer score 62% (normalized by Neofiliac)
Reviewers from notebookcheck have found:
The Envy x360 15 offers sufficient computing performance for office and Internet applications. AMD's integrated Vega 6 graphics core supports DirectX 12 and reaches speeds of up to 1500 MHz. The system drive is a 512-GB NVMe SSD (M.2-2280) from Intel that delivers good transfer speeds.
Pros
  • Matte IPS display
  • Good battery life
  • Good system performance
  • Good maintenance options
Cons
  • No SD card reader
  • No Thunderbolt 3

Reviewer score 70% (normalized by Neofiliac)
Reviewers from pcmag have found:
All five convertibles easily cleared the 4,000-point score that indicates excellent productivity in PCMark 10. Microsoft Office and Google Docs are as easy for these machines as PCMark 8's storage test was for their swift SSDs. The Spectre is the only entrant here with a discrete GPU instead of humble integrated graphics.
Pros
  • Gorgeous 4K screen
  • Solid performance for a desktop replacement
  • Comfortable keyboard and touchpad
Cons
  • Pricier than competitors
  • Lacks integrated graphics

techradar[5]

Reviewer score 80% (normalized by Neofiliac)
Reviewers from techradar have found:
The keys themselves are comfortable to type on and have good travel. The trackpad is decent enough, but nothing particularly special. There are a good number of ports, including an SDCard slot, two USB Type-C ports. The webcam on the HP Envy x360 15 (2021) is decent, but with 720p, you're not going to be getting a fantastic picture with it.
Pros
  • Sleek design
  • Good performance
  • Good battery life
Cons
  • No stylus

Reviewers from tomshardware have found:
The HP Envy x360 15 is a smartly designed premium 15-inch convertible. At $999, it's a good option, especially for those doing video editing or other threaded tasks. With 8 cores and 16 threads, it outperforms similarly sized Intel-based alternatives. The convertible's primary problem is that when it comes to AMD-based laptops, it lasts longer.
Pros
  • Good keyboard and display
  • Good battery life
  • Comfortable keyboard and touchpad
Cons
  • Mediocre CPU performance
  • No dedicated GPU
