50% of the reviews on Amazon.ca give this product a positive rating.

Very fast quad-core processor. Sharp screen resolution. Comfy keyboard. Useful convertible design. Two memory card slots.

Dim display. Short battery life. Not exceptionally lightweight. Buggy.

The SlateBook x2 runs Android 4.2.2 out of the box, and it's barely skinned, so an Android 4.3 update shouldn't be too difficult (although HP hasn't set a date yet). A two-fingered swipe switches between Android home screens. This being an HP tablet,...

Powerful hardware and responsive software ; Bright IPS glass display ; Dense 1920 x 1200 resolution ; Good build quality ; HDMI 1.4, SD and microSD ; Extra-wide touchpad ; Dual batteries ; Lightweight ; Low starting price

No local USB port on tablet ; Only one USB port available ; Locking mechanism could have been more firm ; MicroSD slot is hidden when attached to keyboard dock ; All-around plastic ; Poor keyboard travel and feedback ; No keyboard backlight and small...

Excellent performance and well-made hardware for a mainstream device. The pre-installed HP software are minimal and can actually be useful instead of simple bloatware

Extremely well-built, Wide viewing angles, Stock Android UI, Keyboard dock has its own battery and is very well-built

Expensive, Display lacks vibrancy, Low audio output

Plenty of connectivity, Solid, robust design, Keyboard with decent travel

Average battery life, Dim screen, Slightly cramped keyboard

The HP SlateBook x2 tablet includes a physical keyboard hub, dual batteries, full USB and HDMI ports, and two storage expansion slots.

Fast, Responsive, Sharp display, Good keyboard dock, Rear-mounted volume/power controls, 64 GB internal storage, Mouse works

Software not suitable for work, Yellow tint on display, Unimpressive battery life, Bulky charger
