HP launched a laptop that competes with the Macbook Air

HP's Envy 13 has a number of specifications that are even more "powerful" than the Apple MacBook Air 'super product', but the high selling price of the product is still a difficult barrier to overcome.

The Envy 13 is equipped with the 1.6GHz Core 2 Duo SU9600 super-energy chip that you can't find in any MacBook.The chip consumes only 10 watts of power, and is Intel's highest-power dual-core chip.Not only saving energy, Intel Core 2 Duo SU9600 chips also emit extremely low heat, which is suitable for ultra-thin and ultra-light laptop designs like Envy or MacBook Air.

However, if users choose the Core 2 Duo SU9600, they will have to spend an additional $ 200 compared to another replacement chip.Compared to the Macbook Air, the Envy 13's configuration is even more powerful.

In terms of graphics, Envy is capable of converting graphics, saving power. When there is a need for graphics power, users can switch to using discrete ATI Mobility Radeon HD 4330 graphics cards (consume more power); otherwise, they can use Intel's integrated graphics card (power saving).

The screen of the Envy 13 has a resolution of 1600x900 pixels, higher than the MacBook Air (1280x800 pixels). Envy 13 is equipped with Intel's 160GB solid state drive (SSD). If using the date option, users will have to spend an additional $ 200 compared to choosing a normal hard drive (HDD) 5400 rpm.

Meanwhile, the MacBook Pro13-inch offers two SSD options of 128GB and 256GB.However, users will have to pay pocket money of $ 350 and $ 800 more, a relatively difficult option, and few users will accept this because the MacBook 13-inch itself (using a normal hard drive) is only available. USD 1,499.
