The backlit keyboard adopts the same brushed metal appearance, making the design profile stable across the board.
Although negligible, the power button on the side and the rim enclosing the touchpad also sport the same shiny metallic look. The HP logo comes with a mix of mirror finish and so do the laptop hinges, all of which look decent when teamed up in a single package. The 2-in-1 laptop looks elegant as it is complimented by a brushed metal look from all sides. The Pavilion x360 plays on the same idea and brings a spin of “premiumness” with it. While its high-end ‘Spectre’ range was already visually appealing, a major shift in the overall laptop design strategy across other sub-brands was seen ever since the launch of the HP Spectre, which still remains one of the thinnest laptop ever. Design and display HP, since last year, started focussing more towards the design of its laptops and hybrid laptops rather than concentrating only on the performance.
