Our Verdict
HP Spectre x360 14 (2023)
Framework Laptop 13 (2023)
The Framework Laptop 13 (2023) and the HP Spectre x360 14 (2023) are both high-end Windows ultraportables. The Framework Laptop has better performance, so it can handle more demanding workloads and provide a smoother desktop experience; however, the HP gives a better user experience overall, as it has a better keyboard, touchpad, and speakers. Also, you can configure the HP with a nicer 3000 x 2000 OLED display. Feature-wise, the Framework is more serviceable, and its modular port system makes it easier to adapt to any situation. On the other hand, the HP is a 2-in-1 convertible and supports pen input.
