HP Pavilion x360 11 (2021) vs HP Spectre x360 13

Verdict

The HP Pavilion x360 11 (2021) is a decent laptop for light productivity tasks. It has a USB-C port, but it cannot be used to charge the laptop, so the included power adapter must be used. Battery life is less than eight hours of light productivity, and the laptop runs for 4 hours 47 minutes in video-playback battery-drain tests. It is not a particularly powerful laptop, but it is a good option for simple tasks on the go. Some users have reported unexpected shutdowns and battery issues.

Verdict

The HP Spectre x360 13 is a great choice for those looking for an ultraportable laptop with a 2K or 3K display, up to 16GB of RAM, and 512GB of storage. It has a great keyboard, decent battery life, and good cooling. However, some users have reported that the device can throttle under heavy use.
