a new hybrid design from HP I'm Dan Ackerman and this is HP's 2015 version of the Pavilion x2 this is a 10.1 inch Intel Atom powered hybrid obviously works like a clamshell laptop right here and they've got a magnetic hinge as opposed to some of the latch type systems that we've seen before so the screen just pops off like this you can use it as a full Windows 8 tablet or you can flip it around reattach it like this and then you've got that kind of kiosk mode and if you want to you can fold it down and just carry it as a as a thicker tablet here with the keyboard still attached for convenience and when you want to flip it back easy enough to do you can just like this now you've got your clamshell again what I really like is that they've moved up to USB see this is one of the first laptops that we've seen with the USB C connection they use it to charge laptop also has a full regular USB port and micro HDMI and micro SD card so a lot of connectivity for something so small the Pavilion x2 is going to be available at the end of July starting at $2.99 I'm Dan Aquin and that's the HP Pavilion x2
