If you're looking for a good laptop deal, the HP Elite X2 is one of your best options. Not only is it super competitively spec'd, it's also competitively priced. In fact, it's the best competitor to the Surface Pro 4 right now. It could even be a better buy than the Pro 4 especially since Microsoft failed to update its tablet line.
HP Elite X2 On Sale At Verizon
The HP Elite X2 convertible laptop is now priced $999 at Verizon for a no-contract deal. You can also get it for $899 with a 2-year contract, Phone Arena reported. This LTE enabled hybrid laptop is marketed mostly for the business sect considering the device's hardware and software specs. This device may be more of a tablet than it is a laptop but it clearly is a perfect device for people who are always working on-the-go. CNET says that the HP Elite X2's fingerprint reader, docking option and network of components make the device best for both work and entertainment.
HP Elite X2 Specs
This 2-in-1 device runs Windows 10 and features an IPS display with 1920 x 1080 pixel resolution. The display is also protected by a Corning Gorilla Glass 3. Furthermore, one of the best assets of the HP Elite X2 is its drop and spill resistant build - a rare feature within tablets and laptops. Furthermore, the Elite X2 also has decent internal specs. It uses an Intel Core m3-6Y30 processor and it comes with 4 GB worth of RAM. Its storage is 128 GB and it also has modest camera specs (5 MP rear and 2 MP front).
Overall, the HP Elite X2 is a very big competition to bigger brands like Surface. The lowest-end Surface Pro 4 is priced $899 but it doesn't have 4G connections and isn't spill and drop-free, making it a tiny bit inferior to the Elite X2. Of course, the Pro 4 has superb display and high-end variants but depending on your needs, these superiorities may or may not matter.
