Background and Identification
The HP Envy line of computers are a series of PC laptops by Hewlett-Packard, an American multinational internet technology company that produces hardware, software and other consumer products.
They launched the series in 2009 with two laptops—the Envy 13 and the Envy 15. They also added an Envy 14 and Envy 17 model eventually. In 2012, they rebranded their Pavilion series into the new line of HP Envy laptop and discontinued the original Envy series. The rebranded series came with Nvidia graphic processors and Beats by Dre speakers.

The Envy 13 is a 13.3-inch display ultrabook with Intel’s 10th Gen i7-1065G7 Ice Lake processor and Iris Plus graphics. The Envy 15 contains Intel’s latest 10th Gen i7-10750H processor and the Nvidia GeForce RTX 2060 Max-Q graphics chip.
