Hewlett Packard on Wednesday announced the Envy 14 and 17, adding two more models to its existing lineup of 13- and 15-inch Envy premium laptops. Resembling Apple's MacBook Pro, the new Envy 14 would be made available in U.S. on June 17 while the Envy 17 would be made available on May 19.
New HP Envy 14 and Envy 17 are similar to the existing Envy 13 and 15 laptops. Magnesium-aluminum alloy made chassis and back-lighting keyboard are the two features that make these notebooks stand out from other HP offerings. The new Envy 14 and 17 are equipped with quad-core Intel processors (Intel Core i3, i5 or i7) and have ATI Mobility Radeon HD 5830 discrete graphics onboard. Thus, gaming, HD video and 3D imaging have been taken care of.
The Envy 14 sports a 14.5-inch diagonal HD Radiance display that HP says is some 59 percent brighter than a standard notebook. Resolution is 1600 by 900 pixels, brightness is 350 nits and color gamut clocks in at 82 percent.
It’s 5.25 lbs., and sports an Intel Core i3, i5 or i7 processor. Visuals are powered by switchable graphics comprised of integrated Intel GMA HD and discrete ATI Mobility Radeon 5650 (1GB DDR3).
It’s got three USB 2.0 ports, an eSATA shared port, HDMI v1.3c, Mini-Display Port, a 2-1 Digital Media Reader (SD, MMC), a Beats headphone jack, a second headphone + microphone combo jack and Gigabit Ethernet.
Meanwhile, the Envy 17 pretty much crams everything it can into one package — it’s clearly the barnburner of the bunch. With this model you’ll find Intel Core i5 and i7 and ATI Mobility Radeon 5850 (1GB GDDR5) graphics.
You’ll also find display options that go up to 1920 by 1080 pixels (up to 300 nits; up to 72 percent color gamut) and two 2.5-inch storage slots (each HDD up to 1TB; each SSD up to 160GB).
Ports are the same as the Envy 14 with a few exceptions: the Envy 17 has two USB 2.0 and one USB 3.0, VGA and a 5-in-1 card reader. Optical drive options include Blu-ray, of course.
It weighs 7.51 lbs and comes with ATI Eyefinity Technology for multiple external display support and HP Triple Bass Reflex Subwoofer for, well, all that audio work you do.
HP has priced Envy 14 at $1,000 (Rs. 44,919 approx.) while the Envy 17 has been priced at $1,400 (Rs. 62,882 approx.). As of now, there's no information on when these notebooks would be made available in India.
