Finally pulled the trigger on setting up MacOS on this laptop after flirting with MacOS in VMs for a while.

Notes

Very good Hackintosh. This laptop was very widely sold in the UK (PCWorld, John Lewis, Amazon), so I would think this may be helpful to some people. When researching Hackintosh there are some configs available for a North American Envy 13 with similar specs but almost none of those files were compatible with this model. I compiled a DSDT to get the ELAN Touchscreen working. Trackpad is glitchy with 3+ fingers with latest VoodooPS2. Older version of it seems to help but not cure it.

Battery life is around 4 hours at 50% brightness and general web use. Better than I expected. Use one-key-cpufriend to enable 800MHz base freq as if not it idles at 1.2/1.3GHz.

Intel UHD620 must be spoofed to Skylake to get rid of colour depth banding. Injecting custom EDID graphics colour depth is perfect. No banding at all. Use one-key-hidpi to enable HiDPI options. Wakes up from sleep with no glitches when set to 'Default for Display'. Even when spoofed as Skylake there was an ever so slight colour banding that although could hardly be seen, was there still. Injecting a EDID seems to fix this.

Sleep works with some config.plist edits. Sleeps and resumes just fine.

On-board Sound works, as do the speakers. The onboard Mic works but quality isn't great. By default on boot the sound is set to 'Headphones (Back Left)'. Selecting 'Speakers' is required. Not sure how to make it default to Speakers so far.

On-board Web Cam works.

The Intel WiFi doesn't work. Even with the alpha drivers. I wouldn't bother wasting time on this chip. However the Bluetooth works out the box. I have a Broadcom M.2 WiFi on order so will be replacing this anyway for one that works with AirDrop/handoff etc.

Brightness Keys do not work out of the box. I tried a hack with an App Store app which while worked wasn't 'right'. So I edited and compiled a new DSDT to enable the Fn+F2/F3 brightness keys to work like they should.

Touchscreen. This is a godsend since the trackpad isn't the best (even in windows). This can only be enabled by creating a new DSDT but then it works fantastically. Install VoodooI2C.kext and VoodooI2CChild.kext to /L/E.

For WiFi I am currently using a RaLink (Realtek) Wifi USB dongle that I had lying around. Will replace with the Broadcom M.2 when it arrives.

No issues with the NVMe SSD.

All USB ports work, USB-C port works.

When the Broadcom M.2 arrives this should be a 99% (SD reader/Fingerprint reader) perfect Hackintosh!
