HP's new Spectre consumer notebook is similar to the more expensive business version

Unlike Apple, which sells the same hardware to individuals, small businesses and big companies, HP segments markets with consumer and business devices. Many of these devices are similar, but there are some differences. All other things being equal, the business models are a bit more rugged, have extra security features and come with group communications applications and tools to help IT departments manage devices. They are also generally more expensive.

I wouldn't normally compare two laptops from the same company, but I find it interesting to compare a so-called"consumer" product with a so-called"business" product. Over the years I've seen many examples of business and consumer versions of the same product being nearly identical other than price and sometimes insignificant features. The most extreme example was during the eighties when I was running a computer training company.

Both have excellent but slightly different keyboards. Both are advertised as"full sized,"but the EliteBook's keyboard is actually slightly smaller than the Spectre's. When measuring from the left of the A key to the right side of the"key, the Spectre truly is full-sized at 8.063 inches. The EliteBook is 7.813 inches.

Another difference is design. The Spectre has a less industrial and more consumer feel to it, with beautiful design considerations. Also, the Spectre's power key and one of its USB C ports have been moved to the rear corners of the chassis, making them easier to access. Both have a USB A port and two USB C ports, either of which can be used as the power port or a DisplayPort.
