The matte finish bezel around the display and on the base further adds to the looks and keeps it safe from fingerprints. Inside is a 1.6Ghz Intel Core i5 processor, 4GB RAM, 128GB SSD and Intel HD 3000 graphics - with all this, it manages an impressive score of 4.7 in the Windows Experience Index (the lowest score is for the graphics).
The overall slim form factor and weight (1.5kg) make it easy to carry around and comfortable to work with. The backlit keyboard and large keys make it a joy to use while the large trackpad (with gestures) made browsing and navigation easy too. In terms of multimedia performance, the Folio's onboard speakers gave superb loud output, while the machine handled SD and HD content easily to provide smooth video playback on the screen as well as when connected to a larger TV via HDMI.
It comes bundled with an external DVD writer, which is a smart move by HP and we hope others follow suit. What really impressed was its battery life. With Wi-Fi connected and mix use of multimedia, browsing and office work the HP Folio 13 lasted close to 7 hours on a full charge - no other Ultrabook has managed to do this so far.
As for its quirks, the webcam had visible noise during video calls with overall average quality video output. The 13.3-inch display is good for day-to-day work, but overall colors felt a bit washed out and the viewing angles left a lot to be desired.
At 69,990 plus taxes, the Folio 13 is overpriced when compared to offerings from competitors. For instance, if build quality is not the most important criteria for you, you can get the Samsung Series 5 ( 54,390) that has a 14-inch display, 6GB RAM, 1TB storage, dedicated graphics car
