It has a built-in fingerprint sensor and dual speakers tuned by audio experts Bang & Olufsen. While we didn’t test this latest model, feedback from happy owners on HP’s website praised its performance. With the power of Intel’s latest 11th Gen chip inside, it’s a direct competitor of the Dell XPS 13 2-in-1 Connectivity-wise, the Pavilion x360’s port selection is quite ample by today’s standards. You get an HDMI port, a single USB 3.0 Type-C port, and two USB 3.0 Type-A ports. For your audio needs, there’s a headphone/mic combo jack onboard. With a weight of 3.6 pounds and 12.8 x 8.7 x 0.71 inches, the Pavilion x360 is heavier and larger than the Dell XPS 13 2-in-1 (2.9 pounds, 11.6 x 7.8 x 0.6 inches) and Lenovo Yoga C940 (3.1 pounds, 12.6 x 8.5 x 0.6 inches).
