What customers like about Hp Split X2 WiFi (4GB + 500GB)

  • Versatile 2-in-1 design with a fully detachable 13.3-inch screen
  • Solid build quality and attractive aesthetics
  • Decent keyboard and responsive trackpad for a hybrid
  • Dual batteries (tablet and base) provide ample runtime for long journeys
  • Includes a variety of ports such as USB 3.0, HDMI, and multiple SD slots
  • Affordable price compared to other high-end Windows hybrids
  • Good viewing angles on the IPS touchscreen display

What customers don't like about Hp Split X2 WiFi (4GB + 500GB)

  • Extremely heavy and bulky (nearly 5 lbs combined), making it less portable
  • Top-heavy design makes it unbalanced and uncomfortable for lap use
  • Low screen resolution (1366x768) and low brightness/contrast for its size
  • Underpowered performance in base models, particularly for multitasking or heavy apps
  • Fiddly reconnection process when docking the tablet to the base
  • Internal fans can be consistently audible during use
  • Difficult to use outdoors due to screen glare and low nit levels

Verdict

The HP Split x2 is a versatile 13.3-inch Windows hybrid that functions as both a standalone tablet and a full laptop through its detachable keyboard dock. This specific configuration features an Intel Core i3-4012Y dual-core processor, 4GB of DDR3L RAM, and a high-capacity 500GB hard drive typically housed in the base to complement the tablet's internal flash storage. Its primary strengths include the flexibility of a 2-in-1 design, a responsive HD IPS touchscreen with wide viewing angles, and rich Beats Audio sound. However, the device is notably heavy and bulky for a tablet, weighing approximately 2.2kg when docked, and its 1366 x 768 resolution is relatively low for its large screen size.
