HP ENVY 23-d065 Pro Reviews

It seems that our conclusion agrees with our hypothesis. We were skeptical that the HP Envy 23 could bring real luxury or unique features to a $949 price point. And it doesn’t. This is an all-in-one, and it does what comparable all-in-ones do. That means value is an important metric — which is where this PC really starts to stumble. $1,049 isn’t outrageous, but it’s not exactly a bargain. Lenovo’s B-Series appears to offer similar hardware for slightly less and Lenovo will soon offer the substantially more stylish A520, a smaller version of the A720 we previously reviewed, for $999. Then there’s the Dell Inspiron One, which can be had with a substantially better graphics, more storage, and otherwise similar hardware for $200 more. Don’t mistake us. We’re not saying the HP Envy 23 is bad. It’s merely competitive. On par. Alright. It’s a reasonable choice if about $1,000 is what you want to spend, but it’s far from exceptional. Make sure you survey the market before taking the plunge.
