laptop – notebook – christened portable Computer. HP has taken the name of the new Spectre, Folio, very literally. Instead of an aluminum or plastic housing of the fine Laptop is smashed like a classic binder in genuine leather, the coated metal parts in the Interior. As a notebook it on and fold down. And there is even a pen. Whether the playful Design is proven in everyday life, we have tested.
The striking Design is definitely worth a look – and it feels good in the Hand. The leather surface is a pleasant change for the Alu-unit mash of modern laptops. When you tap the contrast between the leather under the heel of the hand and the metal of the keys for a very special feeling. At the first, it is striking, however, that the construction has a price lift: With a weight of 1.47 kg, the Folio is not a heavy weight, with the airy Ultrabooks to a Kilo of the 13-inch Notebook can’t compete.

The keyboard allows for a pleasant, not too soft attack, and well-to-reach keys to a very good writing experience.
