  • Battery scores were unimpressive. Touchpad could use some more tuning.
  • With its fast parts, a bright screen, and a high-end audio system, the HP Envy 14 is one of the most luxurious 14-inch laptops and also the heaviest and least battery efficient. Buy it nowCheck here for other notebooks by HP!Additional Offer Save on L...

  • Great, backlit keyboard, Well constructed, Beats audio does help improve the laptop sound, USB port on charger is appreciated, Photoshop and Premiere Elements included
  • Speakers aren't that great for all the advertising
  • HP's Envy 14 is an exercise in branding, ignoring the fact that a premium brand should also have premium performance. Give this one a miss.

  • Looks great, sturdy build quality, backlit keyboard, ships with Beats By Dre Solo headphones, Core i7 CPU, better sound quality than most notebook on the market
  • No line or optical audio input, glossy screen, screen isn't Full HD
  • With great styling, a solid build quality and Beats by Dr Dre headphones, the HP Envy 14 Beats Edition notebook is hard to resist. It's the type of notebook you buy when you have deep pockets, a need for a powerful laptop, and you want to stand out from t...

  • Stylish Beats colours, Comfortable keyboard, Beats headphones included
  • Underwhelming performance, Screen lacks rich colours, Lid doesn't feel sturdy
  • If you want an angry-looking laptop that's straight outta Compton, the Dr Dre-inspired HP Envy 14-1196ea is your tool, but it lacks firepower for the price....

  • 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
  • Though it's undeniably a stylish and attractive machine which has plenty of power even for a fairly intense workload, the HP Envy 14 14-1195ea Beats Edition doesn't excel enough in any area to justify its ridiculously high price, and the inclusion of the ...

  • Exudes style and quality, Core i7 processor is powerful enough for real work, Beats Solo headphones deliver exceptional sound
  • Without switchable graphics the battery life is very disappointing, and despite the great spec we're not sure we can call it good value, the trackpad is infuriating
  • Style first doesn’t always make for the best system. You might fall in love with the looks, the sound, the style and the sheer power, but make sure that the price, the weight, the battery life and trackpad on the HP EVNY 14 Beats Edition suit you tooKe...

  • Finish, Very strong CPU performance, Good quality webcam, Good gaming performance
  • Panel with very low contrast (222:1) and inaccurate colours, Poor quality speakers, Touchpad coating disagreeable after some time, Poor battery life
  • A high-performance, well-finished laptop, but a bit low on battery life all the same. The poor screen also lets it down somewhat overall....

  • Cool, modern design, Strong performance, Comes bundled with Beats headphones
  • Expensive, Annoying trackpad design, Not the brightest screen, No Bluray player
  • If you're after a stylish desktop replacement machine, this is a cool twist on the Envy line of laptops. The trackpad is quite annoying though, and there's no Blu-ray player on board, so think carefully before throwing down your notes...
