HP Envy 14 Beats Edition (14-1195ea)

 

HP's Beat Edition Envy 14 is stylish and powerful 14.5in laptop and comes with snazzy headphones, but is it a good buy?

Quad-core Core i7, Stylish, classy design, Soft-touch lid and palm rests, Decent speakers, Good build quality

Overpriced, Dated specs and connectivity, No Blu-ray drive

HP Envy 14 review

 

There is no denying the style, power and features of the Envy 14

Incredible graphics performance ; Responsive, well laid out keyboard

Very poor trackpad design ; Screen can't do the graphics card justice

If you can live with the awkward quirks of its touchpad, there is no denying the style, power and features of the Envy 14.

HP Envy 14 review: An everyday laptop for everyone

 

HP's speedy everyday laptop is a great choice for pretty much anyone, whether for at-home use or when on the go. Here we review its pros and cons.

Attractive and portable design ; Speedy performance with minimal fan noise ; Good battery life ; Lots of ports ; Nice display

Webcam is bad ; No full-sized SD card port - microSD of limited use ; Could do with additional USB-C port ; Sound is a bit harsh

The one sense we’re left with after using the HP Envy 14 is that it’s just effortless. It lets you do what you need to do without getting in the way. It’s fast enough, the battery life is good, plus the keyboard is nice to type on. Not to mention that...

HP Envy 14 Beats Edition review

 

Adding to HP's range of upmarket consumer notebooks is the Beats Edition of the HP Envy 14. It's a subtle facelift of the standard HP Envy 14 that we reviewed recently, adding a new paint finish, some Beats badges – and a pair of DJ headphones.

The HP Envy 14 Beats Edition is a solid enough 14.5in notebook, spruced up here to appeal to a younger audience. Yet we can't help feeling that Hewlett Packard is playing the trendy dad, not really understanding the youth generation so instead buying...

HP Envy 14 review

 

Last time we looked at HP's Envy laptops, we couldn't not mention how much they were modelled on Apple's MacBook Pro.

Available for a penny under a grand, the 14in Envy is priced more competitively than the £1500 of its 13in predecessor. That model has now been discounted to an appealing £849 or less. But in the HP Envy 14 you now get an integrated optical drive and...

HP Envy 4-1010ea 14in Ultrabook review

 

HP made quite a fuss when it launched its Spectre Ultrabook back in May, and whilst we praised its gleaming, glass design we also noted that the Spectre was a bit on the porky side [1] for what was meant to be an ‘ultraportable' laptop. It was also...

This is one of those ‘glass half full’ situations. If you consider portability to be the be-all and end-all of an Ultrabook then the Envy 4 – like the Spectre – falls short when compared to its slimmer, lighter 13in rivals. On the other hand, it’s...

HP Envy 14 Spectre

 

The HP Envy 14 Spectre is a very good looking machine, that's a little different. However, it costs a bundle, is a quite heavy and is one that requires you to clean fingerprints off it every ten minutes.

Attractive Design, Keyboard, Beats Audio

Premium Price

Goondu review: HP Envy 14 Beats Edition with Intel “Sandybridge”

 

HP's premium laptop finally ships with Intel's power-efficient and muscular CPUs. Build-wise, it is also one rare machine that stands up to Apple's excellent MacBook Pro.

That OCZ Vertex 2 SSD inside it will be transplanted into the new HP Envy 14. It’s a beginning and an end, I guess, but I can’t wait for the new laptop to swing with a speedy SSD inside. Look out for a hands-on guide soon on installing an SSD on your...
