The Good: You can get the 4th generation Intel Core i7 4900 running at 2.8GHz. It's got the horsepower to handle most anything you want to do. Just be sure to get the NVIDIA GeForce GT740M for graphics. The native Intel chipset just isn't up to anything m...

Double-take, gape, gawk, ogle, ooh and ahh: That's what we did when first seeing the HP Envy 17 (2012)'s ($1,484.99 direct) screen. What HP calls a Radiance Full HD Infinity display is simply one of the best, if not the best, laptop screens we've seen...

The folks at HP like to call the ENVY 17 a "premium entertainment PC" and that's not a bad description of this sleek 17-inch notebook. The combination of a powerful Intel Core i7 processor, AMD Radeon graphics, 8GB of RAM and a 1080p display form the basis of a solid high-performance PC. But add the aluminum construction, backlit keyboard and amazing speakers with Beats audio and you've got breat...

The Envy 17 is the biggest and most powerful model in HP’s top-end line of laptops, which are known for their sex appeal and solid build quality. The Envy 17’s 11x16.5x1.5-inch chassis is constructed of magnesium alloy with an aluminum wrapping that’s...
Handsome and wellbuilt; good performance/portability ratio; Eyefinity.
Somewhat limited for games; weak battery life; gets hot under graphics load.

HP's Envy line-up has been so often requested around here that actually having one on the test bench feels like both a major win and a kind of letdown. These notebooks (particularly the 14, for which a review is forthcoming) are so well regarded by...
As we mentioned before, HP's Envy line of notebooks are often touted in the comments on our reviews as being alternatives to Apple's MacBook Pro series. In reviewing the Envy 17 at least, we find that's not entirely a fair comparison. Apple's notebooks se...

When it comes to selecting our favorite mainstream Windows laptops these days the HP Envy 14 is pretty much at the tippy top of the list. (Hey, we don't just give anything away to our college-bound readers, you know?) But while the 14-inch version of the...

Nope, HP's Envy 17 still isn't the perfect desktop replacement -- the touchpad is still a bit finicky and it can get a bit warm during graphics intensive activities -- but like the Envy 14, it comes pretty darn close to it. If you can live with those shor...

For people who either can't afford Apple's 17-inch MacBook Pro or are just stalwart PC loyalists, it would behoove them to check out HP's Envy 17 (starting at $1,399; $1,599 as configured). For much less money (the MacBook Pro starts at $2,299), this b...

Hot and enduring. Enormous battery runtimes are obviously always appreciated, but they are somewhat conflicting with the not very mobile 17-inch form factor in the case of the new notebook from HP. Pretty successful on the other hand is the orientation to...

The high temperatures of the HP Envy 17-n107ng affected the overall rating a bit, and this is justified for temperatures of up to 82 °C (107.6 °F). Those temperatures are concentrated to some points on the chassis and are only reached after long periods o...

HP's Envy 17 3D is a desktop replacement machine that packs 3D capabilities and is based on Intel's Sandy Bridge platform. Out of the box the Envy 17 3D certainly looks expensive; the machine is finished in a tasteful mix of gray and silver and almost...
Application workhorse, manages to create immersive 3D experiences, comfortable to work on.
Extremely large and heavy, not a gaming machine.
Given its positioning its disappointing that the Envy lacks gaming grunt. If gaming isn’t a concern however, you’ll find the Envy 17 a capable app machine and an immersive 3D entertainer...
