The touchscreen on the HP Spectre x360 16 registers taps in the wrong location after a Windows 11 update or hardware change. The Intel Core Ultra 7 155H model uses an ELAN digitiser that stores separate calibration profiles per display orientation, and these can become misaligned.
Reset and recalibrate Most common
Search “Calibrate the screen for pen or touch input” in Windows Search → Click Reset to clear all stored profiles → Click Calibrate and tap each target precisely in the orientation you normally use.
Calibrate in each orientation
Rotate the Spectre x360 16 to portrait mode and run calibration again. Windows 11 stores a separate calibration profile per orientation. Complete calibration in landscape, portrait, and tablet mode if you use all three.
Reinstall ELAN Touch Driver
Download and install the ELAN touch driver from HP Support for your Spectre x360 16 model. Reinstalling corrects any driver-level calibration offset introduced by a Windows update.
“Resetting and recalibrating the touch in both landscape and portrait modes fixed the offset on my HP Spectre x360 16. Works perfectly in tablet mode now.” — Husna, Selangor
