▲ Tap or click to enlarge
The keystroke (the distance the key sinks) is about 1.3 mm, which is neither deep nor shallow.
The typing feel is a little stiff at the beginning of typing, but the movement until the key returns to the bottom is smooth, and there is no feeling of poking.
It has high rigidity and you can type with a crisp feel without bending.
The key top (the surface of the key) has a slightly gentle spherical surface, making it difficult for the force of your fingertips to escape.
▲ The key top is exposed to light to create a dented line.
The typing sound is like a rattling sound, and the volume is about normal.
Key pitch etc.
▲ Comparison with desktop PC keyboard
▼ There seems to be a key pitch (key-to-key spacing) close to 19 mm, which is said to be easy to type.
The palm rest was also wider than the size image.
Equipped with keyboard backlight
The brightness of the keyboard backlight can be adjusted in 5 steps.
Touchpad
The clicking sound when you press the touchpad is about normal.
▶ Speaker
Audio makerDual speakers co-tuned with Bang & OlufsenEquipped with.
The speaker position is on the bottom.
Since it is equipped with a sound system co-tuned with Bang & Olufsen, I felt that I wanted a little more sound omission as much as I expected.
Sound quality not bad for a laptop speakerI think.
▶ Display
It is a touch-enabled display.
“Corning Gorilla Glass 5” is used for the cover glass of the display, which is strong and resistant to scratches.
In addition, as introduced in the “Reflective privacy screen” section that prevents peeping, the privacy screen “HP Sure View Reflect” is built-in.

▶ Battery life
■ Actual measurement of battery drive time
| Manufacturer’s published value | Up to 12 hours |
|---|---|
| Play youtube video | 7 hours 49 minutes |
| Amount of battery that could be charged in 30 minutes | About 41% |
* Display brightness: Measured at about 80%. The darker the display, the longer the battery life.
* Regarding “Play YouTube video”, the battery life may change depending on the content of the video, so please refer to it for reference only.
I think we have a good battery life.

It is almost silent. Even when I played the game, there was almost no fan noise.
Unless you run a heavy 3D game, it doesn’t seem to make that loud noise.
▶ Size
It is a size comparison with a semi-B5 notebook (university notebook).

|---|---|
