The Asus Zenbook UX305C and Dell XPS 13 are two of our favorite thin-and-light laptops right now, the former because it represents a good value at $700 and the latter because it’s a slick, lightweight machine with plenty of high-end features.
But there’s some room in between those two, and that’s where HP’s Envy 13 comes in. The $799 model includes many of the same specs as the ZenBook we like, but throws in a backlit keyboard and full-fledged Core i5 and i7 CPUs. There are a few things about it that keep it from unseating our favorites, but it still offers some appealing features for people unhappy with a few of the UX305C’s tradeoffs.
