Hardware Canucks posted a review of the new HP ENVY 6 Sleekbook with AMD's Trinity APU
Intel’s Ultrabooks currently dominate the Windows-based ultra portable notebook market, but AMD now has their own range of competing products that have been built around the new Trinity architecture. While there are several new notebook series which have taken up the AMD torch, HP’s new Envy 6 Sleekbook is among the most popular due to its affordable price and wide ranging feature set.
Currently, thin and light are two must have items for most notebooks due to today’s on-the-go yet connected lifestyle. No one wants to be lugging around a seven pound laptop in their backpacks, nor do we want the dubious reputation of pulling out a thick and ugly slab at the local Starbucks. Tablets and so-called “superphones” may have taken over in some areas but the good old fashioned notebook has gradually evolved into something infinitely more adaptable. Intel Ultrabooks are evangelized for exactly these situations but they typically go for about a thousand bucks. Students and most other end users typically don’t want to invest this kind of money in a single device so AMD and HP came up with an alternative called the Sleekbook. While the name may not be sexy, the price for the Envy 6 is very, very tempting: it starts at just $599.
