The HP notebook has a 13.3-inch Full HD display and weighs just 1.1 kg. The MacBook Air, in comparison, weighs 1.35 kg. The laptop is configured with sixth generation Intel Core i5 and i7 processors.

According to the company, the laptop houses a hybrid battery that lasts up to nine hours on a single charge. The 13-inch MacBook Air gives up to 12hours on a single charge.

The base model of the HP Spectre 13 features 8GB RAM and 256GB storage. It has the so-called hyperbaric cooling technology that pushes heat away from the processor and draws in cool air. It has also added two more fans at the back to vent out the heat.

The body is crafted from aluminium and carbon fibre. The laptop will be available in dark gray and copper colour schemes. It comes with three USB-C ports, including two that support ThunderboltTM, to provide a fast, versatile input/output connection, as opposed to one on Apple's 12-inch MacBook Air.

The HP laptop also features a full-size, island-style backlit keyboard, and a glass trackpad.
