The HP Envy 15" is at Best Buy for $780... Not on sale. Normal price. I've seen it go down to $550 frequently recently, so learn where to buy your laptop 👍 because I can't believe you would pay over $1,000 , unless you got an over the top model. The HP at Best Buy for $780 has the same specs as the Lenovo Flex and again, with the same specs I got it for $550 at Best Buy
I could be wrong but I'm not sure you're correct. Here's the specs I pulled from Best buy for the 780 dollar match I found: HP - ENVY x360 2-in-1 15.6" Touch-Screen Laptop - AMD Ryzen 5 - 8GB Memory - 256GB SSD - Nightfall Black. The one with closer matching specs was the Ryzen 7 model but it was 949 dollars and had 8 gigs ram. There were some open box ones for the price you mention but that's lame. Lastly neither models on BB were 16 GB Ram
Woowww I love this channel ! Amazing background music and very soothing voice sir! , pls don't stick with pc only from this channel , it would hurt to visit other channels for diff things like mobile and gadgets . I will definitely buy one of these laptop for college study specific laptop. Um can u suggest a mid range gaming laptop too ( idk why but I like keeping devices seperate for diff things ) I like rog strix 731g but idk which i5/i7 , ssd to pick . I m a nub in pc world .
Well done Edmond. I own last years version of the Lenovo and ENVY you with all that RAM. That said you can get that laptop for $599 on an irregular basis.
I’m looking for an ultrabook for private use. At work, a few years ago, I decided to switch from Dell to HP after many years as a Dell user. Boy, did I regret that! I ordered a $4500 portable workstation, built to order. And it was just an experience from hell from day one! The damn thing had so many issues. It froze completely after a few hours of use. It was sent back and forth and they couldn’t sort it out. The experience stuck with me, and I just can’t bring myself to even consider an HP product now. Consumer confidence is so easily broken.
I could sing if your love, Forever! I feel like dancing. This I know. When I see the light. I will be dancing like I’m dancing now. We sing this song in church. Nice!!! All of my days. I want to praise. Your Mighty hand. We sing this one too.
Good video, thank you. I would agree with most of your assessments up until you compared price - You have a 14" and a 15" with the additional disparage between them being one is a RYZEN 7 vs RYZEN 5 - needless to say, of course there would be a significant price difference - not quite a fair assessment which leads me to believe you were slightly biased towards the Lenovo - other than that - good video
albeit the similar spec but Lenovo already fall way back to focus on super affordable touchscreen laptop market. At least Lenovo comes from C340 (or the C640 and above) first before going for the Flex route
Thank you, for the comparison videos. After your last video I decided not to buy the hp. I ended up ordering a Dell XPS 15 7590 i5 9th generation. Im a writer and I like to stream videos so I went with the larger 97whr battery. I look forward to receiving it. I'd love it if you do a comparison on the dell xps 15 and the HP Envy in the near future. Bless🌾
@@EdmondTongExactly 😊..lol and, I'm glad I called the sales department instead of just ordering from the website..i received $200. off the listed website price by inquiring about upcoming holiday sales and promotions. Looking forward to more videos from you.
I think the xps has it all but you're paying double -or more -for less engine and capacity. It is like apple where the cost is just hard to justify for a budget guy like me.
Hey man, great review! Your Channel deserves way more attention! One big question: You said the Envy Came with the stylus? I always thought you had to buy it seperatly, at leasts thats what my shop over here in germany told me when i wanted to buy it today. Also, you can attach it to the side? Is this also possible on the 13" Envy?
I think that AMD one comes with the pen, bc here where i live (UAE) the lenovo flex 5 intel doesn’t come with a pen but the AMD comes with it so I think same goes with the HP..
I bought the HP from Bestbuy this weekend - never looked back - also bought 32GB Ram which should come today - I would say the HP is a BEAST for under $800.00 - not the 1200.00 he was talking about
@@hacker-7214 Not everyone wants to game or wants a bulky laptop, and people buy laptops so they can take it places, which you can't do conveniently with desktops.
Really liked video on Lenovo IdeaPad Flex 5 4500U. Can you help with below two concerns 1. WiFi 6 upgradabiliity (Intel Wifi 6 AX200 Hardware change) 2. Ability to connect it to external monitor with USB C port. that will Charge the laptop & take the display signal to monitor ( Thunderbolt mod
Lenovo flex 5 does not have display port type C, but there are adapters by USB that function like display port. Yes, you can upgrade the wifi if needed from what I read.
I’m looking to stream and record with the elgato while I game on my ps4. Do you think the lenovo flex 5 with the 4700u, 16gb on ram, and 8 core processors is they way to go? what would you recommend?
You should learn to read the scale my friend Lb:oz Is different from lb You have it set on lb:oz and it says that below the weight Hence the difference Also another red flag : Is not a . . Is used for parts of the same unit : Is used to express using a different unit 6.1 is 6 and a tenth feet long/tall 6:1 is 6 and an inch feet long/tall
Thank you for your video. I'm leaning towards the HP one since it has a metal chassis and upgradable RAM. Between the two, which one runs hotter and louder under heavy load?
@@EdmondTong This is probably due to fact that HP's Ryzen 7 CPU and Lenovo has Ryzen 5 CPU. Fan noise could be for the same reason. Thanks for the comparison video, it is helpful. I'll probably go for Flex too.
Great video, how long did it take for your flex 5 to arrive from Amazon after shipping? Mine shipped today but they gave me an arrival date of July 9th 😒
How is it so far with you ? Is it too small in real life ?! I have an hp 12.6 inch display screen (without measuring the huge edges), do you think the 14inch is a noticeable difference and change for me ? 🙏
Was looking specifically for a comparison between these 2 laptops to choose from, so this video came at the right time! Thanks for this. Quick questions: does the flex 5 have a Ryzen 7 variant? How cheap does the plastic feel? How is the battery life for both? Many thanks!
@@JustMe-tg1lu For mines, the fan rarely gets loud, and the camera isn't the best, but definitely good enough for zoom. As for the speakers, I think they're fine, and the laptop has an intelligent cooling feature + others, which is super useful
@@suki0369 heyy ive gotten the laptop! Its really amazing lovee it so much. Yep the cooling system is alright and not noisy but can get quite hot after hours of usage which is rather normal i guess.

I can get the HP envy x360 with ryzen 7 4700u, 16gb ram, 256gb ssd from hp website for only $720. Soldered ram on the Lenovo is a deal breaker for me, plus I'm having a hard time finding the flex 5 with 16gb ram
HP laptop is good but not so reliable. Overheating issues are possible; while this isn’t a concern with every HP laptop model, some of them can overheat during use. In addition, HP’s customer service is not as good as Dell’s. Try Lenovo.
Hi everyone, so I need to buy a laptop for my university and I'm crazy about touch screen laptops bud my budget is something around the price of this one. And I'm really not sure if it worth it or not because I heard that the touch screen might cause some problems!! I'll be happy if you could share you opinions with me, if you were in my situation would you buy this one or another one with the same price but without touch screen??
Steve Wilson what is the difference if they had the same specs then there is no difference between them. I boils down to how biased are you against the other company
@@kkbigbang8564 Did you even watch the video? There are so many intricate differences between the two that aren't so intricate when you use the laptop everyday. Keyboard rigidity, trackpad feel, power button location, stylus and stylus mount, metal vs poly-carbon finish... just to name a few.
The Flex actually has a double heatpipe for cooling the CPU, as opposed to a single one on the Envy which means that, with the same processor, the Lenovo would tend to perform better.
Hello. Does flex5 turn itself on automatically when you open its cover? Without pressing the power button? I bought it yesterday and wonder if this is a problem or a new feature
this lenovo has 25% of ssd size, lower processor and no usb dongle. ryzen 7 performance is much higher when using dual channel ram, so i would not recommend any non upgradeable 1x 8gb for example (most lenovos except this one and the 4700u one at costco for 1000). hp is dual channel 4 + 4 both upgradeable, so even if you stay with the 8gb you'll get full benefit of dual channel performance. Lenovos includes usb c charger, totally ridiculous. means you can't charge and use usb c port at same time, so the first thing to do, go and buy a barrel port charger. the whole point of usb c power delivery is to use a usb-c power bank on the road. Instead they want you to use a mobile port for charging but you still need a 110v wall outlet - hilarious!. also i believe lenovo usb c does not support external display so deal breaker for me. The costco hp is the best option although if would make more sense if priced at 950 vs 1100, or it it came with 16gb
I got 512GB SSD nvme, dual channel 16GB DDR4 3200mhz, 4700u for $750 at Costco. Super satisfied with the performance, I don't need to charge and use the USB c at the same time, so it doesn't matter to me. It charges quickly and the battery lasts long.
Is it just mine or does the fan on this laptop get pretty loud when plugged in to a high resolution external monitor (2560x1080 or higher) and on ac power? Can't seem to get this fan to quiet down and it is super annoying. PC is fast otherwise. But weakpoints are definitely screen color accuracy, weight (relative to macbook pro or xps 13), and build quality which is two tiers below MBP or XPS13.
It's annoying the turbo boost for CPU is very high when plugged in and low usage. I've seen it go to 4ghz at 10% CPU load. Unplugging it makes CPU drop to appropriate speed and fans quieten down. Hopefully can be fixed in software update.
@@pcmactek not really. Anyway I found a fix. You need to go download a program to customise your power plan.. Change all CPU options to be the same on battery as plugged in On battery it's set to 50% performance (0) efficiency (100) and plugged in it was set to 33%.. This makes it not clock below 2.6ghz plugged in. Change it to 50 on both AC and DC and you will be golden. forums.guru3d.com/threads/windows-power-plan-settings-explorer-utility.416058/
For his use-case (realtor), he probably doesn't need the extra power or upgrade-ability of the HP. So the lower cost of the Lenovo suits him. I think he presented the tests between the two pretty fairly, so that each viewer could make their own decision on which computer wins. Like you, it's the HP for me.
Hello, I got a question about the screen. I see that they have both 250 nits brightness. But when I went to the local store I was really disappointed about the brightness of the screen from the flex 5. I was wondering how bright the screen from the hp is in contrast to the Lenovo. Thank you!
I find that the two screen was at about the same brightness, sometimes I do have to max out the brightness when outdoors on both, I wish it has auto adjust brightness like the MacBook or Surface
You really need to up your game making reviews,because this one was pretty bad. The most improtant things like performance,display,battery life,cooling,price?????? This is not review it's more like just giving opinion,nothing else.There are many chanels that you can learn from how to make proper review.I encourage you to go an check them out.
Do you take your laptop everywhere or is it stationary 95% of the time? The 14" will be noticeably lighter at 3.3lbs. The 15" is about 4.4lbs. I've owned two lap tops around both weights, and the 3lbs one is alot easier to move around. However, if you don't plan on taking it around much, then it's going to be left up to which one has the better features.
Dude, what did you do with the colouring in this video? Your hands are almost grey like a zombie. Also the shot of the numberpad of the HP was inverted. This video looked so weird. Nevertheless great info and in-depth review of this products. I'm thinking of buying the HP envy X360 15 R5 4500U for 800euros here in Belgium. I was also doubting between those two products.
@@m.channle Bro earlier I and my students have used hp laptop but with in few years we have faced so many problems under heavy use. More over the customer service for HP in India is also not good as lenovo... That's why I asked 15inch in lenovo... Any way I bought 14inch lenovo flex 5 but I feel 😊😊😊 very satisfied & happy & also lot easier to carry... I am a college professor.. so I have to carry it, to different classes at different session... Now I feel 14 in - very comfortable..

I'll be happy if you could share you opinions with me, if you were in my situation would you buy this one or another one with the same price but without touch screen??
Would you still choose the Lenovo if the specs and price were the same?
Steve Wilson what is the difference if they had the same specs then there is no difference between them. I boils down to how biased are you against the other company
@@kkbigbang8564 Did you even watch the video? There are so many intricate differences between the two that aren't so intricate when you use the laptop everyday. Keyboard rigidity, trackpad feel, power button location, stylus and stylus mount, metal vs poly-carbon finish... just to name a few.
KKBigBang lol specs are not everything
The Flex actually has a double heatpipe for cooling the CPU, as opposed to a single one on the Envy which means that, with the same processor, the Lenovo would tend to perform better.
Which stylus are you using with the envy ? All over the youtube your's is the only pen that is magnetised , how is so ?
Did you return the unit to Costco or did you get the issue with the loud fan resolved? If yes, how?
Hello. Does flex5 turn itself on automatically when you open its cover? Without pressing the power button? I bought it yesterday and wonder if this is a problem or a new feature
That is actually a feature, you can turn that on or off in the BIOS. I prefer to have it on when I open the lid.
@@EdmondTongRealtor thank you. I saw lots of videos saying that it is a problem, not a feature. So i wanted to ask here
this lenovo has 25% of ssd size, lower processor and no usb dongle. ryzen 7 performance is much higher when using dual channel ram, so i would not recommend any non upgradeable 1x 8gb for example (most lenovos except this one and the 4700u one at costco for 1000). hp is dual channel 4 + 4 both upgradeable, so even if you stay with the 8gb you'll get full benefit of dual channel performance. Lenovos includes usb c charger, totally ridiculous. means you can't charge and use usb c port at same time, so the first thing to do, go and buy a barrel port charger. the whole point of usb c power delivery is to use a usb-c power bank on the road. Instead they want you to use a mobile port for charging but you still need a 110v wall outlet - hilarious!. also i believe lenovo usb c does not support external display so deal breaker for me. The costco hp is the best option although if would make more sense if priced at 950 vs 1100, or it it came with 16gb
I got 512GB SSD nvme, dual channel 16GB DDR4 3200mhz, 4700u for $750 at Costco. Super satisfied with the performance, I don't need to charge and use the USB c at the same time, so it doesn't matter to me. It charges quickly and the battery lasts long.
Is it just mine or does the fan on this laptop get pretty loud when plugged in to a high resolution external monitor (2560x1080 or higher) and on ac power? Can't seem to get this fan to quiet down and it is super annoying.
PC is fast otherwise. But weakpoints are definitely screen color accuracy, weight (relative to macbook pro or xps 13), and build quality which is two tiers below MBP or XPS13.
It's annoying the turbo boost for CPU is very high when plugged in and low usage. I've seen it go to 4ghz at 10% CPU load. Unplugging it makes CPU drop to appropriate speed and fans quieten down. Hopefully can be fixed in software update.
sounds like that display is REALLY working your graphics card
@@pcmactek not really. Anyway I found a fix. You need to go download a program to customise your power plan.. Change all CPU options to be the same on battery as plugged in
On battery it's set to 50% performance (0) efficiency (100) and plugged in it was set to 33%.. This makes it not clock below 2.6ghz plugged in. Change it to 50 on both AC and DC and you will be golden.

Michael HTT thank . I think there are some ways to limit the cpu in amd software too
Which one has the better trackpad and keyboard, considering that the number pad doesn't really matter to me?
HP won every test basically not to mention upgradeable ram storage so how is it a no brainer ??
For his use-case (realtor), he probably doesn't need the extra power or upgrade-ability of the HP. So the lower cost of the Lenovo suits him. I think he presented the tests between the two pretty fairly, so that each viewer could make their own decision on which computer wins. Like you, it's the HP for me.
which one has better battery life?
Good choice.
you got hp laptop with stylus ?
Hello, I got a question about the screen. I see that they have both 250 nits brightness. But when I went to the local store I was really disappointed about the brightness of the screen from the flex 5. I was wondering how bright the screen from the hp is in contrast to the Lenovo. Thank you!
I find that the two screen was at about the same brightness, sometimes I do have to max out the brightness when outdoors on both, I wish it has auto adjust brightness like the MacBook or Surface
bro, which one have the best response to the stylus pen included?
It's so lonely like a funeral or a farewell
??
Hi I saw your post on red flags, what's the battery life on the HP?
@THE red flags deals, not red flags as in bad
Is Lenovo flex 5 good for running photoshop and illustrator?
Would really like to see a comparison between the HP 445 G7 and the Dell Inspiron 2in1. Thanks for this.
Can you give me amazon link for hp please🙏
Does HP have 72ntsc????? Please tell bro🙏🙏🙏
Are these 2 in 1 laptops?
Yes they are :) they can turn into a tablet, and both comes with a pen...
Definitely hp envy x360 for me
How come?
Which display version has your hp 250nits or 400? And I would like to know which display is better in your opinion?
I think it was the 250nits, it was bright enough for me :)
hp has also a 13" version with the same specs
@jaspal singh 13 because it is only 1 kg
Is the lenovo one coming to México any time soon?
It already did. Bought it on Amazon back in August. I think right now it's sold out but you can still get the Intel model.
You really need to up your game making reviews,because this one was pretty bad.
The most improtant things like performance,display,battery life,cooling,price??????
This is not review it's more like just giving opinion,nothing else.There are many chanels that you can learn from how to make proper review.I encourage you to go an check them out.
I would have to agree with you on that
can't decide between 14 and 15 inches . Any help?
Do you take your laptop everywhere or is it stationary 95% of the time? The 14" will be noticeably lighter at 3.3lbs. The 15" is about 4.4lbs. I've owned two lap tops around both weights, and the 3lbs one is alot easier to move around. However, if you don't plan on taking it around much, then it's going to be left up to which one has the better features.
Can you upgrade the rams and storage of these laptops
The ram is not upgradable for both those models
RAM is upgradable on the HP
Dude, what did you do with the colouring in this video? Your hands are almost grey like a zombie. Also the shot of the numberpad of the HP was inverted. This video looked so weird. Nevertheless great info and in-depth review of this products. I'm thinking of buying the HP envy X360 15 R5 4500U for 800euros here in Belgium. I was also doubting between those two products.
The HP is truly the fastest laptop ever made
Does the x360 have an hdd slot available?
uncommon internal today, answer is NO, only SSD
seems only 1 ssd slot, none free
I want the hp in 14 inch :(
I want the lenovo in 15 inch :-(
You can buy hp pavilion x360
@@m.channle Bro earlier I and my students have used hp laptop but with in few years we have faced so many problems under heavy use. More over the customer service for HP in India is also not good as lenovo...
That's why I asked 15inch in lenovo...
Any way I bought 14inch lenovo flex 5 but I feel 😊😊😊 very satisfied & happy & also lot easier to carry...
I am a college professor.. so I have to carry it, to different classes at different session... Now I feel 14 in - very comfortable..
@@BENHARARVIND same!!
Is the hp is a Ryzen version?
Yes
i got the lenovo with ryzen 7
Please do video on hp envy amd ryzen 5 4500 processor, with 16gb ram
Lenovo Yoga/flex like samsung tablets book chromebook ms iPad macbook asus acer some dell hp spectre ram soldered risky repair and hp envy upgradeable 15.6 x360...ssd hdd ram.
Hp 15.6 envy x360 silver intel or amd best buy build top speakers hdmi full sd full trackpad full lid keyboard etc.
Why keep yoga? Hp envy portable too both big but hp repairable upgradeable...good luck yoga when it breaks when it flexes too much...lol.
มอง2รุ่นนี้ไว้ครับ ถ้าจะเอามาทำงานตัดต่อ พี่ว่ารุ่นไหนดีครับ
ฉันคิดว่า Lenovo Flex 5 14 ดีกว่าในความคิดของฉันและ Edmond tong ก็คิดเช่นกัน
How to get international warenty on this products please say
No idea :D Shipping it back and forth is not ideal.... but how often does these things break? :)
hello babs
hi bab
@@lemonextract1325 hello babs
hp is way better then lenovo
memory in the HP is not upgradable, I found out in the service manual on their website
RAM in the HP is SODIMM, so it is upgradable.
@@Chillthur that's good news! I have the exact model. I thought there weren't upgradable since that's was said on the product description sheet.
@@pengxu8542 Usually they would tell you something different LOL...
@@pengxu8542 Why don't you open up the back and check? I tried HP configurator in website, and it is saying SODIMM which means it is upgradable.
The 13" Envy Ram isn't upgradeable, but the 15" is.
