  • Excellent hybrid design, Exceptionally long battery life, Light and runs very cool, Runs all Windows applications
  • Tablet a bit oversizeD, Paltry mass storage, Limited tabletoptimized apps, Poor 3D graphics performance
  • In the end, though, we see so much potential in the Envy x2 we're willing to overlook some of its awkwardness. It's the type of device that is sure to improve over time, and it's showing the way to the undeniable future of ultralight laptops....

  • Can be used as a tablet or as a notebook, Runs Windows 8, Battery life can be extended through the keyboard dock
  • Performance was sometimes very sluggish, Touchpad didn't always work properly, Screen flickering issue, Slow storage
  • HP's Envy X2 hybrid is decent if you are looking for a Windows 8 tablet that can also be used for long typing sessions. However, we experienced sluggish performance, a screen that flickered, and a touchpad that sometimes refused to work properly. These is...

  • 15.6in, Full HD screen, 802.11ac Wi-Fi, Good array of ports
  • Big and heavy, Glossy screen, Touchpad is awful
  • We're not completely taken by the HP Envy X2. It sometimes felt like a chore to use, mainly because of the layout of its keyboard and touchpad, and also because of the performance of its touchpad. For notebook usage while resting it on a desk, we'd use a...

  • Abstract:  There's a fine line between a laptop and a tablet these days, more so in the hybrid, convertible models that we've looked at so far. The HP Envy X2 takes the line and crosses it completely, making it difficult to judge whether it's a laptop with a removab...

  • Combination tablet and laptop, robust locking mechanism, good looks, good battery life
  • Underpowered processor, heavy, pricey
  • The HP Envy x2 looks good and offers a neat and effective solution to the laptop-or-tablet conundrum. But its underpowered processor can be frustrating and the price is definitely on the high side for what you get. View Gallery 15 items Sp...

  • HP's Envy x2 comes packing a bright 11.6" five-point touchscreen which runs at a crisp 1366 x 768, with a wide 16:9 aspect ratio that’s brilliant for gobbling down video and rivals the 11" MacBook Air's screen too. Packaged in a tight, small form-factor, the Envy x2 reminds us of both the MacBook Air and the iPad yet still stands apart from Apple's devices. If you want a device to impress your fr
  • The x2 suffers from a few slowdowns due to the slightly underpowered Intel Atom processor tucked inside. It's fast enough to get your work done, but you’ll see a few blips on the way and don't expect to be playing any demanding games on it or editing much video either. Despite a nippy 64GB SSD tucked inside, storage space is a major issue for the HP Envy x2. You'll find around 20GB already gobble
  • The HP Envy x2 is a fantastic device with a decent battery life, a brilliant keyboard, and it performs well as both a laptop and a tablet. It’s let down by only a couple of niggling things: Windows 8 itself, which needs more tablet optimisations and ap...
