HP ENVY — 30 models in the used-laptop catalog , spanning 2012 to 2024 , priced from $197 to $1260 . This guide covers the configuration spread across the line and which setups are worth buying in 2026.

Where the HP ENVY line stands in 2026

ENVY is HP's premium-consumer line, halfway between Pavilion and Spectre: 30 models from 2012 to 2024 — 14 ultrabooks, 12 x360 convertibles and 3 gaming-badged ENVY 16 units. Asking prices run $197 to $1,260 with a median of $739 (29 of 30 priced). RAM ceilings reach 96 GB, weights 1.3–3.14 kg, and screens 13.3 to 17.3 inches.

The configuration spread

Core i7 (26 configs) and Core i5 (13) lead, with Core Ultra 7 (8), Ryzen 5 (7), Ryzen 7 (5) and Core Ultra 5 (4) filling the modern end. Graphics are mostly light: Iris Xe 80EU (3), Arc iGPU 4-Cores (3), MX450 (2), and legacy GeForce GT 740M/750M on the 2013 units — with an RTX 3050 4GB trio and a single RTX 4060 8GB (the ENVY 16) as the only serious dGPUs. RAM ceilings run 16–96 GB.

Price versus age

The ladder has a gap: 2012–2015 units ask $197–$345, then the line jumps to 2019+ at $604–$1,260. The 2021–2024 band is the meaningful market: 2021 asks $666–$739, 2022 $471–$870, 2023 $680–$1,260, 2024 $750–$1,084. Within 2023 the spread is widest because it contains both thin convertibles ($921 x360s) and the RTX-bearing ENVY 16/17 ($922–$1,260) — chassis class, not condition, drives the difference.

Which one to buy

Creator value: the ENVY 16 (2023, $922, Core i5 13500H + RTX 4060 8GB) — the strongest GPU in the roster at mid-tier money. Budget convertible: the Envy x360 15 (2022, $471, Ryzen 5 5625U + Radeon Vega). Modern all-rounder: the Envy 14-fa0013nd (2024, $750, Ryzen 5 8640HS + Radeon 760M). dGPU convertible: the Envy x360 15 (2023, $921, Ryzen 5 7530U + RTX 3050). Ultrabook pick: the ENVY 13 (2020, $650, Core i5 1135G7 + MX450) or ENVY 14 (2021, $739, Core i5 1135G7 + Iris Xe). At the top, the Envy 16-h1001nr (2023, $1,260, Core i9 13900H + RTX 4060) is the halo; the 2012–2014 dv7/17 stock ($197–$227) is legacy floor.

Bottom line

Across the roster: best-CPU score 59.8, performance index 42.8, energy efficiency 79.9, mobility 50.5, reliability 54, portability 39.4 (the x360 15/16 and ENVY 16/17 units weigh it down). Gaming index 23 and zero games clear recommended settings at the median configuration — the ENVY 16 with RTX 4060 is the one true exception. The line's sweet spot is convertible value: x360s at $471–$921 with the 2023 ENVY 16 at $922 for creators.
