The chassis is still made out of aluminum, weighing in at 4.72 pounds, and has HP's typical flat sides and sharp corners, giving it a clean look. There are plenty of ports, in contrast to the Dell XPS 15. While Dell's XPS 15 only has two Thunderbolt 3 ports and one additional USB Type-C port, the two Thunderbolt 3 ports on the Envy 15 are full Thunderbolt 3 ports, where either one of them can power up to two 4K displays or a single 5K display. On the left side, is a USB 3.2 Gen 1 Type-A port, HDMI 2.0, microSD, and a power port. This machine comes with a 200W pin charger.
On the other side, there's another USB 3.2 Gen 1 Type-A port for 5Gbps data transfer speeds, and a 3.5mm audio jack.
The HP Envy 15 comes with a 15.6-inch 16:9 display, with a 1080p 300-nit panel. It also has a 4K OLED panel, which first appeared on the Spectra and is now available on the Envy. The Envy 15 has two Bang & Olufsen speakers, which are located on either side of the keyboard. The quality is phenomenal, as is the volume. One model includes an Intel Core i7-10750H, 16GB RAM, a 512GB SSD, and an Nvidia GeForce RTX 2060 Max-Q for $1,499.99. For an additional $400, it can be boosted up to 32GB RAM and a 1TB SSD. The Intel Core i7-10750H is a 45W hexa-core processor with 12 threads. The Envy 15 is part of Nvidia's RTX Studio program, so it uses Studio drivers instead of Game Ready drivers by default. The Studio program is aimed at creators that might be doing a lot of photo and video editing. And that's exactly what I did. I rendered 4K 60fps video, photos, and more. Sure, rendering time was more than on my desktop with its RTX 2080 Ti, but it's quite impressive for a laptop that weighs under five pounds. Battery life is over six hours at 75% brightness.
