1 extra mic and a better webcam seems like bizarre product differentiation to create a distinct unit. Just put both of those things in the G2. I assume they didn’t to keep the starting weight under 1kg, but that is weak sauce. I’m amazed that laptops from all OEMs have soldiered on for years with garbage webcams. It took a pandemic for them to realize that maybe your webcam and mics should be better than “works in a pinch” quality?
What happened with the keyboard?! X360 had proper keyboard with pgup/etc keys off on the right side and this new shit goes back to macbook-style useless keyboard without those extra keys? This is literally the only reason I bought HP before, but looks like they decided to follow the sheeple and do trash keyboards.
Don't worry, any of the 14" HP laptops still have the proper keyboard layout. It's only the 13" laptops from HP that has a condensed layout.
For 2-in-1s, there are Spectre x360 14 and EliteBook x360 1040. The chassis is physically bigger so battery, thermals, and performance are all better as well.
Without a doubt some of the best models Elite Dragonfly G2 as well as Elite Dragonfly Max. They also seem very on-trend in terms of the current working from home reality for many business professionals, with the system prioritizing things like webcam, mic, and battery life quality. For me, as a writer, an online article writing service is just an ideal option, especially since the price is very affordable. By the way, you can always familiarize yourself with my works on the https://writemypaperbro.com website, they are all written on this laptop.

So the consumer-class Envy gets the 16:10 screen and the professional\enterprise Elite get 16:9? Okay HP.antonkochubey - Monday, January 11, 2021 - link
Indeed a major disappointment, if this laptop was 16:10 I'd be seriously looking at it.medi05 - Monday, January 11, 2021 - link
On the other hand, there is AMD Ryzen version of Envy... :)Bob Todd - Monday, January 11, 2021 - link
