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
If you ignore the $850 price tag, the HP Envy X2 makes sense as a sort of cross between a Windows RT tablet and an ultrabook. It’s a thin and light laptop that also functions as a tablet with long battery life.But it’s hard to ignore that price tag. ...
Works well both as a tablet and a laptop. Lovely materials and quality construction, good keyboard, sharp IPS display, long battery life and silent, Works well both as a tablet and a laptop. Lovely materials and quality constructio

No, it's not cheap but it's one heck of a portable Windows 8 transformer style tablet. The materials and build quality are the best we've seen so far in an Intel Atom Windows 8 ultraportable, and when docked it's the only transformer that looks and fe...

Sleek-looking comfortable design, Portability and productivity in one device, Windows 8, All-day battery life
Atom processor, Pricey for an underpowered device
The HP Envy X2 (11-g012nr) is a slick-looking detachable tablet laptop with all-day battery life, but some may balk at price and the limitations of an Atom processor....
High-quality workmanship, Viewing angle stable IPS screen, Long battery life, Good input devices, Versatility, Low emissions, Memory expansion via SD card
USB 2.0 only, High price, Low computing power, No UMTS/LTE, Gaming unsuitable, Slow recharging
HP Envy x2 11-g000egThe longer we dealt with HP's Envy x2 11, the more the concept appealed to us. Laptop and tablet in one - why wasn't this invented years ago? We look back at the awkward convertibles of the past. Windows 8 and up-to-date hardware firs...

The HP Envy x2 has a clean, comfortable design and feels lightweight in tablet form. It has excellent battery life, and works just as well as a laptop as it does as a tablet
The laptop mode is top-heavy, and the awkward tablet detachment mechanism isn't perfect, it has limited ports, and a slower Atom processor means in performance it's far behind most ultrabooks, even though it's priced like one
The HP Envy x2’s capacity to be a full Windows 8 tablet or dock with a keyboard works as well as advertised, provided you’re willing to live with slower performance at a high price. You’re paying for style.
Excellent battery life, Stylish form and finish, No internal fan, High-resolution cameras
Only 2GB of RAM and cramped SSD, Weak performance compared to comparably priced ultrabooks, No USB 3.0 ports
HP's Envy x2 convertible walks a fine line between tablet and laptop. It is thin and light, gets up to 12 hours of battery life, has a nice IPS screen, and runs full Windows 8. But demanding users should steer clear, as performance is weak and you're stu...

Good-looking design, Feels at home as both a tablet and laptop, Good keyboard and trackpad
Atom chip isn't up to any intensive tasks, Display is weak for a tablet, A few small features missing, like USB 3.0 and backlit keys
Excellent battery life of 11hours in laptop mode, Great tablet experience with excellent docking mechanism, Fully fledged Windows 8, no watered down Windows RT, Great brushed aluminum design and solid build quality
Limited storage space and SSD relatively slow, Intel Atom processor is slow, Low screen resolution and no pen input, Keyboard and touchpad are soso
If you want both a tablet and laptop, the HP ENVY x2 is a compelling offering. It has a premium look and build quality, the dock and latch mechanism are awesome. It's just so easy to put the tablet portion into the keyboard dock, and once there it really ...
Sharp, colorful screen, Attractive, lightweight design, Long battery life with dock
Stiff, uncomfortable typing experience, Netbook-level performance, Mediocre battery life without dock
The HP Envy x2 offers long battery life and a responsive Windows 8 touch experience in a lightweight hybrid design, but you get netbook-like performance.
Abstract: Lisa Gade compares the HP ENVY x2 and the Asus VivoTab TF810C Windows 8 transformer style tablets. Both have 11.6″ 1366 x 768 IPS displays, Intel Atom Z2760 Clovertrail 1.8Ghz CPUs with 2 gigs of RAM, 64 gigs of flash storage, NFC and dual cameras. The ke...
