Excellent build, Lovely backlit keyboard, Great SSD storage, USB 3.0 port, Decent battery life
Not as sexy as some Ultrabooks, Very poor screen, Mediocre CPU, Odd memory configuration, Irritating touchpad
In the nascent but rapidly maturing Ultrabook market, the new HP Folio 13 faces some very stiff competition. On paper, it gets off to a slow start thanks to a number of rather mediocre specifications. The Intel Core i5-2467M CPU, for instance, isn't exact...
Abstract: HP’s the newest arrival to the Ultrabook party, claiming its Folio 13-1008tu is ideal for power users who need performance on the move. Based on our testing, we definitely agree. The Folio has a 2nd Gen Intel Core i5-2467M processor and 4GB of RAM ba...
The HP Folio 13 has everything that matters most in an ultrabook: very good battery life, an excellent backlit keyboard, all the requisite ports for mobile use, and a very comfortable feel, along with a competitive entry-level price
The Folio 13 is no looker compared with other ultrabooks, and is a bit thicker and heavier than thin laptops such as the MacBook Air. The clickpad's just a bit too finicky for our tastes, too
Great build quality, phenomenal battery life and a lovely keyboard/touch pad combo make HP's Folio 13 one of our favourite ultrabooks....
The Folio 13 is one of the best Ultrabooks on the market, simply because it's a joy to use and it has all the right features: long battery life, a thin chassis, responsive performance, an SSD, USB 3.0, Gigabit Ethernet, full-sized HDMI and a backlit keybo...

Sober, understated brushed metal chassis, Excellent battery life, Reasonable performance for an ultrabook, Backlit keyboard
Mediocre integrated graphics, 128GB SSD is on the small side
The HP Folio 13 doesn't quite have the visceral desirability of a MacBook Air or Asus Zenbook, but its slightly more sober looks are potentially more appropriate for the business user. It would be great to see this chassis with an Intel Ivy Bridge proce...
Abstract: Ultrabooks, Intel's branding for thin and light laptops, are available from several big name computer manufacturers. HP is a latecomer to making Ultrabooks and while its Folio 13 model is aimed at businesses, it has plenty of features that will appeal ...
Low heat, Good overall performance from the CPU, RAM & SSD, Battery life: 6 hours, Thin and light (1.8 cm, 1.5 kg)
Low gaming capacity, Could use more ports, Glossy screen with inaccurate colours and low contrast, Loud during use
The Asus UX31E may have the advantage when it comes to look and screen resolution, but the Folio 13 has a better battery life and audio, for the same price and processor power. ...
Abstract: As Intel’s Ultrabook kick into full throttle as partners gear up for the release of a new wave of Ivy Bridge based devices TechEye took the time to have a look at how some of the initial wave of ultraportables have fared.Intel set itself a mammoth ta...
9/10. Overall the Folio 13 ticks just about all of the boxes for what Intel has set out to achieve with its Ultrabooks. Aside from a few minor niggles, we would definitely recommend the Folio 13, whether for business use or otherwise. With smart good ...
