#Gadget Corner: Should I Buy the Hp – Envy Touchsmart 15.6″ Touch-screen – Amd Fx-series Laptop?

Are you about due for a new laptop? I know I am. A colleague mentioned to me recently that my laptop looks serious and official. That was his nice way of saying it looked old and clunky. It’s a few years old and just too big, bulky and awkward for me to take anywhere but, until I get a new one I’m stuck.


This past fall I was searching for a laptop for my daughter and wish I’d seen the  AMD FXAPU – HP Envy Touchsmart Laptop at Best Buy back then. The touchscreen, vivrant color, sleek body, plus the fact that it’s light weight is perfect for a college kid to take from class to class. It’s perfect for me too.
Now, everyone wants a pretty laptop but, it’s the features of the HP Envy Touchsmart Laptop(AMD FX APU) that really attract me.

First, This laptop provides extreme performance of AMD’s most powerful mobile processer to deliver exceptional Gaming and Entertainment experience– the AMD FX Special Edition APU*.

      I love the entertainment aspect because I do a lot of video reviews and artist interviews on my blog (as you can peruse and see) so it’s important to have a machine that can handle the editing. As far as the gaming aspect, that just means I’d have to keep my laptop away from my son who is a gaming fanatic. I can see him readily volunteering to edit my videos just to play his online games.



Second, The HP Envy TouchSmart 15.6” touch screen laptop Amd Fx-series  makes multitasking a breeze and the Quick AMD FX series processor is great for daily tasks such as managing your personal life or streaming movies or videos and provides great video quality for gaming or catching up on your favorite youtube videos.

      The touchscreen is the best thing to happen to laptops. The size of the screen is also a great draw to me. I do a lot of multitasking and copy pasting from one browser to the other so this is very helpful. Being able to watch videos on such a crisp screen is a bonus too. You really don’t understand how much you’ve struggled unnecessarily with a low quality screen until you see a video on the HP Envy TouchSmart.

Third, the new FX APU powered notebook, be unbeatable and experience the processing power of 10 compute cores (4 CPU + 6 GPU)**!

      This just means it’s super fast which brings tears to my eyes because my current computer is super slow. So slow that I can hear it churning loudly as it thinks of what to do next.

For those in a rush to click that buy button right away here is the TLDR version of what I just wrote about the :
  • Unbelievable PC Performance
  • Exceptional Gaming and Entertainment Experience
  • Mega-Multitasking
  • Award Winning Graphics

What do you think? Do you think I should get one? I might even let my son try out a game or two if I do. Will you be getting one?
