Pros and Cons

Dell Vostro 14 3405

Strengths

It has enough USB ports, it has 3 which is normal.
The bezels are thin, this at least and all the devices have thin bezels and that is very good.
The anti-reflective screen has a good brightness, and well, those screens have a good degrees of vision towards the screen.
It has three USB ports, which is a standard feature in modern laptops.

Weaknesses

The way of cooling is a bit bad because it let the temperature go up to 98° a lot.
The storage activity indicator LED is missing, we don't have it anywhere, we don't know when the equipment is working.
The charger's LED light is limited and does not indicate another color or state, such as when it's charging or fully charged.
When I first started using it, the fan was very loud and got hot, but it stabilized after a few minutes.

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.
