A better looking 2-in-1
One of the better looking 2-in-1 devices out there is HP's Spectre X360. In celebration of Bang & Olufsen's 90th anniversary, a limited edition version of that hybrid tablet/laptop will add even more sex appeal to the design with an ash silver color and copper accents.
What does the color treatment have to do with B&O? Well, nothing really. However, HP is offering premium sound with audio tuned by the Danish audio outfit on several of its new and refreshed models, including the Spectre X360.
Looks aside, HP updated the Spectre X360 with 6th Generation Intel Core i5 and i7 processor options, which are Skylake parts. HP says the hardware upgrade will give users the horsepower and responsiveness they need to drive the Quad HD display, while at the same time promising battery life of up to 12 hours.
The Spectre X360 has both full-size HDMI and mini DisplayPort 1.2 ports for displaying content across multiple screens. For connecting external devices like flash drives and the such, there are three USB 3.0 ports with Sleep and Charge support.
As its name implies, the Spectre X360 is designed so that the display can fold all the way back onto itself so that you can use it like a tablet. You can also use the Spectre X360 in stand mode (watching movies), tent mode (playing games), and notebook mode.
HP says the limited edition Spectre X360 will be available on its website and in Best Buy stores beginning November 8. Pricing will start at $900.
