Your HP Spectre has started running louder or getting hotter than before, especially in tablet mode? The slim, metal body of the Spectre has less room for airflow than a regular laptop. Repair usually takes 1–3 working days.
In brief: The HP Spectre is a convertible, premium design with a metal body, often a touchscreen and 360-degree rotation, so when disassembling the case we work particularly carefully around the hinges. We measure temperatures, carefully clean the Spectre’s cooling system and always replace the thermal paste.
Our experience with the HP Spectre
We’ve cleaned the cooling system in 2 HP Spectre laptops. This is HP’s premium convertible series — metal body, often a touchscreen, rotating 360 degrees.

Spectre — a slim, convertible design that requires precision
The Spectre, thanks to its 360-degree screen rotation and metal, premium body, usually has a slimmer design than classic laptops, which means less space for airflow around the cooling system. When cleaning, we always check the condition of the hinges as well — in this series they work more intensively than in standard designs.
