Today, HP officially announced the launch of a new Ghost series notebook called the Spectre Folio. The biggest difference of this product is the use of the full-leather design officially known as ‘leading the new fashion of the computers.’
The Spectre Folio’s fuselage is made of leather on the A, D, and C sides. It uses two colors of dry brown and burgundy purple. It weighs 1.49kg.
As for the product itself, it has three modes – notebook, stand, and tablet. As you can guess, the notebook is used in the same way as a regular laptop. The Stand mode moves the screen to the front of the keyboard and can be used as a display to watch a video. In the tablet mode, the keyboard is turned to the back as a flat surface.
The Spectre Folio screen size is 13.3 inches, which comes with either 1080p or 4K resolution. Under the hood, it uses Intel’s new eighth generation Y series processors of i5-8200Y and i7-8500Y based on a 14nm process node. It comes with an 8/16GB of RAM and a 256GB-2TB SSD. There are two Thunderbolts 3, a USB 3.0 Type-C port, and a 3.5mm headphone jack.

The product is also equipped with HP four-channel speakers supporting HP Audio Boost and custom tuning technology for a rich and detailed audio experience.
