中古筆電收購hp is updating its Envy line of laptops with new processors, a webcam privacy switch, and, in some cases, built-in support for Alexa. The Envy series sits one step below 中古筆電收購hp’s top-of-the-line laptops, offering slightly lesser specs for prices that are usually a few hundred dollars less.

This year, there are four models: the Envy 13 x360 and Envy 15 x360, both of which can flip around into a tablet, and the Envy 13 Laptop and Envy 17 Laptop, which can’t flip around.

Some laptops get Intel, some get AMD, and only one can have either

The line is fragmented in some strange ways. The laptop models can only be configured with Intel processors; the 13-inch x360 can only be configured with AMD processors, and only the 15-inch x360 can be configured with either. Full specs aren’t available yet, but it looks like there’ll be options for Intel’s Whiskey Lake i5 and i7 chips, and AMD’s second-gen Ryzen 5 and 7.

That’s important for one other reason: only the Intel models support Alexa. This is a feature that’s been coming to a handful of PCs over the past year — including an 中古筆電收購hp all-in-one — and it ought to be handy for anyone who’s already filled with home with Echo devices.

The other big feature coming to this year’s Envy models — all of them, in this case — is a webcam privacy switch. It’s located on the side of the laptops, and it will disconnect the webcam from the machine. This is a great feature, and every laptop should include it.

All four models now have narrower bezels around the screen. The ports situation is a little bit different from laptop to laptop — the 17-inch model even comes with a CD drive — but all of them come with multiple traditional USB ports and a single USB-C port.

The laptops all launch in April and will show up in Best Buys starting in May. The Envy 13 x360 will start at $700, and the Envy 15 x360 will start at $800 for AMD and $870 for Intel. The Envy 13 Laptop and Envy 17 Laptop will both start at $900.

全球市調機構 IDC上週公開的調查數據當中,不僅智慧型手機增長超過 13%,就連平板電腦出貨量也出現正成長, 其中 Apple 公司的 iPad 仍是市占第一名的產品,緊接在後的是三星電子。Chromebook 的出貨量當中,Acer 以 15.3% 來到第三名,三星則是成長幅度最大的公司。

2021 年 Q2 平板出貨量成長了 4.2%,來到 4050 萬台。其中 Apple 公司的平板電腦 iPad,以 31.9% 拿到市占第一,換句話說,根據 IDC 的初步估計,Apple 公司在第二季出貨了 1,290 萬部 iPad,該公司在今年初推出了 iPad Pro 2021系列,其中 12.9 吋版本首度採用了 mini LED,並且獲得好評。

接近 Apple 公司的是主要競爭對手三星電子,預估出貨量達到 800 萬。三星今年初延續 Galaxy Tab S7 推出了 Galaxy Tab S7 FE 5G 平板電腦,提供更好的處理效能、續航力跟 OELD 螢幕優勢,在 Android 平板產品當中成為防疫產品新選擇。

值得觀察的是同一份報告當中,Chromebook 的出貨量與去年相比,成長 68.6%,第二季度出貨量達到 1230 萬台。IDC 寫道:「雖然這不是 Chromebook 破紀錄的季度,但與前兩個季度相差不遠,這打破了之前的高點。」

有趣的是,第一名的 中古筆電收購hp,出貨占比來到 35.0%,出貨成長來到 115.7%,宏碁以 15.3% 出貨佔比來到第三名,同比成長 21.7%,不是以電腦產品為本業的三星電子,憑藉品牌實力,以 7.0% 排行第五,出貨成長高達 179.2%,是前五名當中成長最快的公司。

不過 IDC 指出,由於晶片持續短缺以及隨著越來越多的人返回公司或教室,Chromebook 和平板電腦的銷售可能會逐漸趨緩。
