Glossy7Reviewpcworld.com/article/2267557/hp-spectre-x360-14-review-3.htmlRead 5 October 2026The review explicitly says all 2024 Spectre x360 14 units have the same 2880 x 1800 OLED touch panel, and identifies a glossy finish. Anti-reflection glass does not mean matte. The review summary lists Wi-Fi 7 but its body says the tested model did not include Wi-Fi 7. That internal radio/configuration conflict is unresolved, so only the shared OLED glossy finish is used, without configuration-sensitive measurements.
