HP Envy Notebooks: Updated Styling and Display, Now with 8th Gen Intel
 

In a flurry of announcements this morning, HP has shared its latest updates in the Envy 13-inch and 17-inch laptops. HP has updated its exterior styling, a reduction in bezel size, and is now using the latest Intel 8th Generation Quad Core processors for increased performance. Updates are also made to the HP Command Center software and CoolSense technology, with HP claiming that the new Envy designs should provide users with a solid performing device which can run cool and quiet.

The exterior changes exist in the “Damascus” pattern which is characterized by notable patterns of banding looking like flowing water or even wood grain, typically found in sword blades and knives. This new design is located around the hinge area on the back of the laptop. The all-aluminum chassis has a sandblasted finish and is available in Natural Silver on both the Envy 13 and 17, while a new Pale Gold option is available on the 13 only.
