HP Pavilion X360 2 in 1 Laptop Hands on Review
Design and Build Quality
It is a comparatively sleek laptop which measures 32.5 x 21.6 x 1.7 cm and weighs just 1.41Kg. Though there is no major changes in the design compared to previous generation X360 laptop, there is nothing to complain much. My device had Pale rose color at the top and overall build feels solid in hand.
Display
It comes with 14 inch IPS full HD multi touch display screen with 250 nits of brightness and 45% NTSC color gamut. The bezels are minimal in both sides. However, it is slightly thick in top and bottom considering the latest trend. Viewing angle are good and brightness is adequate on most of the conditions. However, using it on bright sunlight outdoor is little uncomfortable. Touch response is good.
Performance
My HP Pavilion X360 was powered by 13th Gen Intel Core i5(up to 4.6 GHz with Intel® Turbo Boost Technology(2g), 12 MB L3 cache, 10 cores, 12 threads) with 16GB of onboard DDR4-3200 MHz RAM. For storage it has 1TB PCIe NVMe M.2 SSD. Graphics are handled by integrated Intel Iris Xe Graphics. Performance is good for a regular users. If you are gamer or do heavy video editing works, it is better to go for the higher variant.
