HP OmniBook Ultra Flip 14

A worthy Spectre x360 successor with a stunning 120Hz OLED and long battery life, but raw performance and port selection trail its premium price.

Key Takeaways

2880 x 1800 OLED runs at up to 120Hz with 100% DCI-P3 and is called one of the best panels on any 14-inch 2-in-1.

Battery tests span 12 to nearly 20 hours; the 64 Wh pack fast charges to about 50% in 45 minutes.

Lunar Lake chips favour efficiency: multi-core performance trails cheaper creator rivals such as the Asus ProArt PX13.

Ports are USB-C only with no USB-A or HDMI, and the angled corner placement annoys several.

HP retired the Spectre brand; this Flip is the official Spectre x360 successor, with a clamshell sibling.
