    Review Summary: There might only be a few Ultrabooks currently available, but HP has already launched its second Ultrabook-certified model. Unlike the consumer-oriented HP Envy 14 Spectre, the feature-packed Folio 13 is aimed at business users, but that shouldn't put...

    The Verdict: Built for business, but great for everyone else – it’s not perfect, but the price is right

    Review Summary: The new HP Folio 13 is a cross between the classic corporate computer and the modern, ultra-portable PC laptop.

    The Verdict: Much of the explanation for the HP Folio 13's features and configuration is that this is an Ultrabook designed for the business market, and that means it has priorities other than raw CPU performance. Stability, reliability and security therefore...

    Review Summary: The HP Folio 13 is Hewlett Packard's stab at the ultraportable market created by Apple with its MacBook Air.

    The Verdict: The HP Folio 13 is a solid effort from HP that, instead of blindly shedding features and usability in the name of thin-and-light, strikes a reasonable balance. It may be a tad pricey for some shoppers, but including a solid-state drive always drives up...

    Review Summary: Ultrabooks meant for business use have been rare so far. In fact, as of this moment the HP Folio 13 is the only “business Ultrabook” on the market. Lenovo's ThinkPad Ultrabook isn't due for several months.

    The Verdict: The HP Folio 13 is one of the best Ultrabooks on the market today, no matter what it’s labeled. The user interface is excellent, build quality is high, performance is solid and battery life is much better than average. All of this is made sweeter by a...

    Review Summary: HP's Folio 13, the first of a new product line designed to appeal to both mainstream and business users, isn't the thinnest or lightest Ultrabook around. But unless you're a fanatic about such things, it will probably fill your needs better than its...

    The Verdict: Thicker and heavier than the average ultrabook, the Folio 13 may actually be a more sensible option for many users.

    Review Summary: Everyone has an laptop based on Intel's Ultrabook spec these days, and if they don't already, they showed it off at CES last week. Just being thin and light isn't enough to stand out in the crowd now, and HP knows that. To that end, they've produced...

    The Verdict: The Folio 13 is a good showing for HP, combining solid value, admirable build quality and excellent longevity into a package that’s only slightly bigger than other Ultrabooks. If you’re looking for an ultrabook that won’t have you scrambling for a...
