HP Pavilion x2 2016 Edition


HP announced the new 12.1-inch HP Pavilion x2 Windows 10 2-in1 tablet today, which replaces the perfectly acceptable predecessor with the same name, just a slightly smaller display.

But the new HP Pavilion x2 will be powered by and option of either Intel Atom or Intel Core M processor, so that’s an interesting model difference right there, with quite a large difference in performance.

So understandably, the rest of the specs will vary greatly too, meaning that RAM options goes from 2 GB to 8 GB of RAM, while storage options are 64 GB to 128 GB to 256 GB of storage.

The display resolution is 1920 x 1280, and also has active digitizer support, with Bang & Olufsen audio. The Wi-Fi supports 802.11 a/b/g/n/ac, while remaining specs include USB 3.1 Type-C port, one USB 2.0 port, and a micro-HDMI port.

HP expects to launch the HP Pavilion x2 models on February 7. The price starts at US$ 499 with Intel Atom, and US$ 599 with Intel Core m3. Battery life is an estimated 8 hours, from a battery capacity of 33 Whr. This looks like it will become an interesting mid-range Windows 10 2-in-1 tablet.
