HP Unveils $4,999 17-Inch Spectre Fold - The World's Thinnest and Smallest Foldable PC

The HP Spectre Fold is a 17-inch foldable PC that starts at $4,999, making it one of the most expensive laptops ever.
It can be used as a tablet, propped up like a laptop, or folded with a magnetic keyboard to become a 12.3-inch clamshell.
HP claims it's the world's thinnest and smallest 17-inch foldable PC at just under 3 lbs.
It has a 17-inch 34 OLED display and includes AI features like presence detection, screen time reminders, and "touch-free content control".
Rival foldables have had issues like short battery life and software glitches, so it remains to be seen if HP can deliver a seamless foldable experience.
