Expert tester comments
HP's Envy x360 laptop has a large footprint of 15.6-inches, and is one of the larger tablet-convertible on the market. Its size allows it to offer a useful array of ports and slots, and its keyboard also houses a number pad. We found the left palm rest to be very small, though, which meant the overall comfort level was not as high while typing as it was on other laptops, despite the keys being very good. It's a more than capable laptop for common office applications, communications, and media streaming.
