I'm looking at getting one of the X2 convertibles, but had some questions about the hardware I'm having trouble getting answers to.

 

The Split 13t-m100 x2 has extra battery life in the keyboard, and 8 gigs of RAM, but it doesn't have the 1080p screen, which is a deal breaker.  However, even with the extra battery, the life is rated to 10 hours.

 

The Split 13t-g100 x2 has the 1080p screen, but only 4 gigs of RAM. Also, it doesn't say it has a battery in the keyboard, but it's supposed battery life (16 hours) is the highest of the three convertibles I'm looking at here.

 

The Spectre 13t-h200 x2 has the 1080p screen, and some very nice bulid quality. However, only 4 gigs of RAM. They claim to have some extra battery life in the keyboard, but with this the life is rated to 12 hours.

 

My main two questions are as follows:

 

1. Will the Split g100 or the Spectre h200 get an option for 8 gigs of RAM? I multitask a lot, so this could be a deal breaker for me. In a few preview/reviews I read, they claimed these would have options for 8 gigs.

 

2. Can somebody explain the battery-life differences between these computers? The m100, which claims to have up to a total of 6 cells, has the shortest life, whereas the g100, which only claims to have 3 cells only in the tablet, has the longest life. Since all of the hardware between these are very similar... does that mean the g100 actually has a 3-cell battery in the keyboard as well?

 

Thank you very much for your clarifications/help!

Please see the HP Split 13 x2 PC Maintenance and Service Guide for both the Split 13t-g100 x2 and the 13t-h200 x2 parts list. These models appear to be based on the same exact hardware as they both refer to http://h10032.www1.hp.com/ctg/Manual/c03957651.pdf for the MSG.

 

Please see the HP Split 13 x2 PC Maintenance and Service Guide for the Split 13t-m100 x2 parts list. The HP Split 13t-m100 x2 appears to use different hardware when compared to the Split 13t-g100 x2 /13t-h200 x2 models.

 

The 13t-m100 can be configured with 2GB, 4GB, or 8GB. The 13t-g100 / 13t-h200 appear to support up to 8GB, but the system board is only configured with 4GB and according to the MSG is non-accessible/upgradable.

 

The 13t-g100 / 13t-h200 appear to contain a battery in both the "Tablet" and "Keyboard". They also appear to use 4.5 watt Intel CPUs, whereas the 13t-m100 appears to use 6 and 7 watt Intel CPUs. The batteries appear to be the same in all units.

 

The 13t-g100 / 13t-h200 can be configured with a 1366x768 or 1920x1080 screen. while the 13t-m100 only comes with a 1366x768 screen.

Please don't buy the X2. This is the biggest piece of crap every foisted upon mankind. My first one was returned in 5 days. This one is over 30 and I'm demanding a lap top as a replacement.

 

I never thought I'd live to see the days HP would sell lemon's to it's customers but they have to know this thing is a piece of garbage.
