Pros and Cons

HP Chromebook x2 11

Strengths

The hp x211 is a fantastic overall piece of hardware that I think a lot of you could really enjoy.
It has a better screen, a better aspect ratio, and a better keyboard compared to the Lenovo Duet.
The included pin is a nice touch, providing a dedicated place for it to live.
For those who use and like tablets, the HP x2 11 is a step up from devices like the Lenovo Duet in every possible way.
Even for Pixel Slate users, there are upgrades to be found here, including a better keyboard case and more manageable size.
With the price drop to $399, this device becomes a much more viable option for those looking for a tablet-chromebook hybrid.

Weaknesses

The processor struggles to keep up with multitasking and gesture-based navigation, making it feel half-baked in tablet mode.
Android app performance is subpar, with some apps working fine but others struggling or becoming unplayable.
Ultimate Golf was laggy and unplayable, while Call of Duty Mobile wouldn't let me progress past the lowest graphics settings.
Drawing apps like Concepts were terrible on this device, suggesting that there's still work to be done for Snapdragon and Chromebooks.
The missing animations and jittery multitasking may not bother some users, but for others (like myself), it's a significant drawback.
Even with the lower price of $399, this device is not necessarily worth it for those who value high-performance machines.

Dell Inspiron 15 7506

Strengths

The laptop is a monster, a beast! It's supposed to handle heavy editing video workloads without struggling.
The device is solidly built and feels sturdy, weighing around 2kgs
It has a touchscreen display, making it a great option for those who want to use their laptop as a tablet
The Inspiron 15 7506 has a fingerprint sensor and a magnetic pen that recharges in its designated slot
The laptop has multiple ports including HDMI, USB, DisplayPort (Thunderbolt 4 type-c), headphone jack, another USB, and an SD card slot
The device is heavy, but compared to what you can do with it, the weight doesn't seem like a major issue

Weaknesses

The laptop feels quite heavy, which might be a con for some users
There's no mention of any significant issues or problems with previous versions of this model
The device's weight is noticeable, but not surprisingly so given its capabilities
Not much to say about the unboxing experience, as it was straightforward and easy to follow
The manual provided with the laptop has some unclear information (EU radio equipment directive)
Some users might find the laptop's plastic-free design lacking in terms of build quality
