his HP Pavilion x360, a 13-inch model with a price tag of Rs. 57,990, sits in the middle of this range. On paper, it is a decent mid-tier machine, with a touchscreen and a rotating 360-degree hinge, hence the name. It is reasonably light and you can use it as a Windows tablet too, but does it work for real world usage? We used the laptop extensively to find that out, and more.

Comment
Model: The HP Pavilion x360 13-s101tu is a convertible laptop with 360 degrees hinge. It is suitable for people who work on the go. The laptop looks like a premium laptop. It is built with quite high quality plastic and the 360 degrees hinge design is quite robust. The Windows 10 64-bit Home Edition system comes with a 2.3 GHz Intel Core i5 6200U processor, 4 GB of DDR3L RAM, an Intel HD 520 graphics and 1 TB hard drive. Its 13.3 inch touchscreen features a 1080p resolution. Color saturation and viewing angles are decent. However, it is not suitable for use in the sun due to its reflective display.
The touchscreen is quite responsive, accurate and supports 10-point multi touch input. The keys on the keyboard are well-spaced and not straining to type on. The touchpad supports all gestures available on Windows 10. There is no DVD drive installed, but the laptop features many interfaces including two USB 3.0 ports, a USB 2.0 port, HDMI port, an Ethernet port, a multi-format SD media card reader, and headphone and microphone jack. It weighs 1.7 kg and the battery life is up to 6 hours on a standard battery test.

There are hardly any tablets in this display size range anymore. For subnotebooks, on the other hand, it is the standard format.
The advantage of subnotebooks is that the entire laptop can be small and therefore easily portable. The smaller display also has the advantage of requiring less power, which further improves battery life and thus mobility. The disadvantage is that reading texts is more strenuous on the eyes. High resolutions are more likely to be found in standard laptops.

70%: This rating is poor. More than three quarters of the models are rated better. That is rather not a purchase recommendation. Even if verbal ratings in this area do not sound that bad ("sufficient" or "satisfactory"), they are usually euphemisms that disguise a classification as a below-average laptop.
