Reviews for the HP Spectre x2 12-a005nd

60% HP Spectre x2 review: Like the Surface Pro 4, only cheaper
Source: PC Pro English Archive.org version
So, you’re left with a choice. You can either spend £699 on the HP Spectre x2, or you can spend £860 on the Core m3 Surface Pro 4 and Type Cover. For me, the decision is easy. Despite having half the storage, the Surface Pro 4 does everything the HP does in a more refined package. In fact, the vastly superior display quality swings it for me alone, and for that, I’d happily put up with the smaller SSD.

Intel HD Graphics 515: Integrated GPU (GT2) with 24 EUs found on Core-m-CPUs of the Skylake generation (4,5 W TDP).

12.00":

This is a standard display format for tablet computers or small convertibles. You see more on the screen than on a smartphone but you can't use big resolutions well. On the other hand, mobility is not a problem.

HP: Founded in 1939, the US company is a major server and printer manufacturer and one of the leading IT companies in the world. Until 2015, the company was called Hewlett-Packard Company. After a split, the computer division was renamed HP Inc.

In 2023, HP had an approximate market share of 22% of global PC sales, making it number 2 after Lenovo.


70.5%: 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.
