  • 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...
