The Spectre is a consumer-focused system, and while it feels sturdy, it’s not certified to withstand drops, dings, extreme temperatures or humidity. Mobile workers will love the Spectre’s svelte design, but they’ll lament its subpar battery life. The Spectre’s weak battery life is its cons, especially since its closest rival – Dell’s nontouch XPS 13 – ran for nearly twice as long on the same battery test.
