The Dell Latitude 5330 and the HP Envy x360 15" have similar screen quality.
Both the Dell Latitude 5330 2-in-1 and the HP Envy x360 15" have screens that fit general tasks and office applications, with resolutions and brightness levels that suffice for everyday activities, but may lack the crispness of higher-end displays. For engineering and design, their color accuracy and range might not meet the precision required for professional-grade graphic work, as they don't fully cover professional color gamuts. When it comes to 3D and gaming, the relatively lower refresh rates of these screens lead to less fluid motion rendering, which is not ideal for fast-paced visuals or detailed animation work.

How the Dell Latitude 5330 2-in-1 and the HP Envy x360 15" compare to other laptops
"Despite its good looks, stellar webcam and comfortable keyboard, the Envy x360 15 is hard to recommend because of its dim, 16:9 display. If the display isn't an issue for you, just be sure to wait for a good sale price. Otherwise, a more modern two-in-one with a 16:10 display such as the Dell Inspiron 16 2-in-1 or Lenovo Yoga 7i 16 provides a larger workspace without adding much to the size and weight of the system."
