Love the hinge. Okay
Sure
Maybe 99 per cent of the time I don't need to use it as a tablet
But it's just so effortless to transform that I do it anyways. It just screams “Why don't all laptops bend over backwards this way?”

The editors didn't like
It's not as pronounced here as on some other thin metal laptops
But the Spectre still has sharp metal edges right under your wrists. Why
Laptop manufacturers? Why do you subject us to this?
The speakers get decently loud
But also a bit harsh for musi
It's heavier than a MacBook Air
And like many similar hybrids
It leaves the keyboard exposed in tablet mode. Higher-end screen options could limit battery life
Slightly heavy
Making tablet mode a little encumbersome
Possible WiFi issues
Small rubber feet might lead to scratches
The touchscreen could be a bit smoother
Weedy speakers
A shade heavier than some
Entry-level model has 4GB RAM
Slight overheating
Speakers
Low gaming capabilities
Quite bulky when folded into tablet mode
The buttons on the trackpad aren't as responsive as we'd have liked

Attractive, wellmade design, Long battery life, Colorful screen, good viewing angles, Comfortable keyboard, Fast performance, Reasonably priced
A bit heavy for a 13inch laptop, even one with a convertible design, Relative heaviness makes it less practical to use as a tablet, Touchpad offers a bit too much friction

Beautiful design and touch screen, Brisk performance, Good battery life
Weighs more than a MacBook Air, Occasional touch pad misfires

Nice Display, Excellent performance, Fast bootup, Great Build Quality, Excellent battery life, Competitive Pricing
Relatively large screen bezel
The HP Spectre X360 is an excellent ultrabook. To be honest, after spending some time with the beautiful Dell XPS 13, we didn't think there'd be another 13”-class ultrabook this year worthy of an Editor's Choice award, since Dell set the bar so high, but ...
