HP Pavilion x360 11

Strengths

The laptop features a stunning design in smoked silver with an aluminum brush-like finish.
HP did an excellent job in terms of design and build quality, especially at this price point.
The touchscreen performance on this panel has been very good considering its price point.
The display offers decent brightness levels for the most part, although some images look washed out compared to other panels I've tested.
Typing on this keyboard has been pretty good considering its small footprint and size is it a very good keyboard know but who would expect that an 11-in laptop
The trackpad on this laptop has been phenomenal whether browsing the web or navigating the Windows 8 menu.
Battery life has been good, with around 3-4 hours of usage on a single charge.
The Beats Audio speakers sound pretty impressive for their size and once you get The Equalizer adjusted you'll enjoy enjoy the sound quality from these speakers

Weaknesses

Some images look washed out compared to other panels I've tested.
The brightness levels on this LED backlit display were not as good as expected.
The ergonomics in tablet mode were not as comfortable compared to the Lenovo Yoga series.
I wish HP made the bezels on the top and bottom line up together that would have made it more comfortable than using tablet mode
For light duty games, you can expect to play titles like Counterstrike World of Warcraft and Minecraft on low settings, but not many high-end games like Call of Duty and Battlefield 4.
The key travel is decent, but not impressive for an Island-style keyboard.
Fan noise was only noticeable during heavy usage.
The Intel penum n3520 processor may not be suitable for more demanding tasks or games.
