HP reveals revamped Spectre x360 15.6-inch with 4K display, Windows Hello

The Spectre x360 13-inch is our top Ultrabook headed into 2017 but what about its bigger brother the Spectre x360 15.6-inch? HP today is announcing a revamp of that device too with an updated Kaby Lake processor, 4K display, and that minimal screen bezel action. Plus, you get that sweet x360 hinge feature, pen support, and even Windows Hello.

HP is claiming around 12 hours of battery life for the 4.43lb laptop, which should be good enough for all-day usage without a charger.
