![]() ![]() There are speakers on the front of the device (check out a picture to see) which work very well up to a pretty loud volume. This isn't noticeable when on a flat surface, but is just something to bear in mind. The only thing I would point out is that when you're using it as a laptop it can be a bit top heavy. There's nothing amazing about it, but there's nothing really wrong with it either. As a laptop it looks pretty good and as a tablet it also looks pretty good. I'd say the battery life on the X2 is just as good as anything else on the market - even more expensive devices don't do much better, in fact they often do worse. If you're constantly gaming and playing videos then I'd imagine you could drain the battery life in a few hours. For word documents and simple internet tasks it will last the whole day without a problem. It's supposed to last 12 hours (there's a 33W battery inside)- which it pretty much does, though this obviously depends on how much you use it. There's also the fact that it just has 2GB of RAM - not much for a laptop device and more in the region of similar-priced tablets. Clearly the Atom can cope, but I wouldn't run programmes that use too much processing power - it'll drain the battery and might make the device run slower. I tested the Minecraft Windows 10 version earlier and it worked well everything was very smooth and ran properly. I'm writing this wile running a video in the background and it all works fine. If you wan't to pay more then similar devices contain i3/i5/i7 processors, but if you're just using the device for word documents, browsing the web and playing small games then the Atom is up to the job. It's an Intel Atom inside, which is to be expected given the price. If you want to be drawing pictures, however, then this not the device to you. ![]() The touch screen is as good as any - it works as any good tablet should meaning it's fine for Angry Birds and tapping buttons when it's easier/ quicker than using the keyboard. It works fairly well, but don't mistake this for a gaming device. Still, though, video comes across well and on a screen this size I'm not sure if 1080p resolution (an anyway, you won't miss what you don't have!) In terms of graphics, inside is an 'Intel HD graphics' card. However, it isn't full HD (so no point buying HD films to play on it) with a resolution of 1280x800. The screen quality is good it appears sharp and colours come across well. The screen looks sharp and seems to work well in sunlight - though if you have bright light behind you then glare may be an issue and you'll have to put the brightness up to full which can drain the battery. It's a small and portable device and thus the 10.1" screen is very appropriate. It's nippy and can be upgraded to Windows 10 - if you're looking for a good device to edit Word documents and run fairly low-key programmes then HP's offering is certainly a laptop you'll want to consider. Cutting to the chase, the Pavilion X2 is an affordable ( £249.99), fast and portable laptop-come-tablet.
