The HP Envy 13-ba1475ng (Envy 13 Series) 512GB / 16GB is HP's 2017 laptop featuring a height x width x depth (in mm): 17 x 307 x 195 ( = 0.67 x 12.09 x 7.68 in) display, the Intel Core i7-1165G7 4c/8t 4 x 2.8 - 4.7 GHz, 35 W PL2 / Short Burst, 20 W PL1 / Sustained, Tiger Lake-UP3 chipset. At AED 999 in the UAE and ₹24,990 in India, it sits firmly in the budget tier.
The HP Envy 13-ba1475ng excels with its Intel Core i7-1165G7 and NVIDIA GeForce MX450 (2GB VRAM), delivering strong multitasking and light creative workloads, while 16GB DDR4-2933 RAM ensures smooth operation. The 51Wh battery delivers up to 7.5 hours under mixed use, aided by Wi-Fi 6 and Bluetooth 5.1 efficiency. It suits writers, students, and remote workers needing portability (1.25kg) and reliable performance for Office, browsing, and photo editing. Its weakness is thermal throttling under sustained loads—the 20W PL1 TDP and thin chassis limit prolonged GPU or CPU bursts, causing performance drops after 10–15 minutes. Storage is SATA-based, not PCIe NVMe, slowing file transfers. In UAE at AED 999, it’s good value because the Tiger Lake CPU and MX450 are rare at this price. In India at ₹24990, it’s overpriced—competing Ryzen 5 5500U or i5-1135G7 models with faster SSDs are available for less.
