are they good laptops? build quality etc. My knowledge of HP is abysmal support and trash low end quality, but how do their high end lines compare? Their specs are very good value/money compare to XPS in 8th gen

Just like Dell, their Business grade is good, while their consumer grade is trash.
And just like everybody else, they're trying more and more to sell consumer grade shit with a business grade sticker on it.

The spectre? Hell yeah.
High end from any brand is super nice, every brand has their low end with low quality and their high end.
Business stuff is in between.
Lenovo makes some super shit low end laptops, nice business stuff and super nice high end.
Same for HP, they make a lot of consumer trash, have their nice elite books, and then their high end stuff.
I would recommend it, it’s aesthetically beautiful and is built super solid.

hp laptops are shit
sony laptops are shit
literal all laptops are absolute plastic overheating shit unless you're buying a used thinkpad or a refurb 2015 macbook pro bc you've got some dough.
seriously dont drop large cash on a laptop. buy a $400-500 halfway decent laptop with a really good screen because you know it's gonna break within ~3 years. spend the rest on a desktop/mini ITX and if you're doing anything intense use the desktop- thunderbolt 3 opens up possibilities to use external graphics cards on the laptop when connected to the desktop.

im not even sure what your end goal is use case on the laptop but an MS surface or the new $299 ipad with any generic bluetooth keyboard + owning a desktop would suffice all your needs.

I have an HP ENVY x360 15something and after roughly 120 man-hours of work I have a computer that works really well, feels elegant. and looks sexy as fuck.
Pros:
> relatively fast
> lot of storage
> can handle a lot of open applications at once
Cons:
> Uses HP's UEFI programming which is shitty as fuck and very difficult to get to allow you to dual-boot - any modification to the MBR and it defaults to Windows 10.
> Can't game (I don't care about this but you might)
> Minor VM issues, all just because VMs use a lot of system resources
> Shitty support
> Initial touchpad drivers have issues and the uninstall and reinstall process is buggy
I have a friend with the spectre pictured and he has no complaints aside from gaming.
Also what this guy said , if I had it to do again I'd have ignored the peripherals I bought and just gotten a ThinkPad.

You are windowlickingly retarded if you think business grade is somehow in the middle of a manufacturer's quality spectrum.

I need something portable and professional looking as I'm a consultant. (To normies not autists) The new XPS with intel/vega hybrid looks like my best option atm with the xps of the same spec $600 more expensive.
