HP, after unveiling the Envy x2 at IFA 2014 without pricing or a precise release date, has this week launched the hybird laptop with a detachable wireless keyboard, starting at $749.99 (approximately Rs. 45,000) for the 15.6-inch model (HP Envy x2 15t), and $799.99 for the 13.3-inch model (HP Envy x2 13t).

The 64-bit Windows 8.1-based HP Envy x2 13t comes in two screen resolution options, HD (1366x768 pixels) or full-HD (1920x1280 pixels), while the HP Envy x2 15t comes in only full-HD option. Both the 13.3-inch and 15.6-inch models feature a WLED-backlit IPS touchscreen display and a Microsoft Surface Pro 3-like kickstand at the back, apart from the bundled detachable Wireless Bluetooth backlit keyboard.

The new HP Envy x2 models come with a choice of Intel Core M 5Y10 or Intel Core M 5Y70 dual-core processors, and 4GB or 8GB of RAM. Notably, the 15.6-inch model only comes with a 500GB hybrid drive with 16GB of flash storage, while the 13.3-inch model comes with a 128GB SSD (with 256GB and 512GB SSD options).

The HP Envy x2 13.3-inch model packs a 2-cell 33 watt hour Li-Ion battery, while the 15-inch model comes with a 3-cell 50 watt hour Li-Ion battery.

The 13-inch HP Envy x2 (tablet and keyboard) weighs 4.05lbs (approximately 1.83 kg), and the tablet separately weighs 2.81lbs (approximately 1.27kg). The 15-inch HP Envy x2 (tablet and keyboard) weighs 5.42lbs (approximately 2.46 kg) and the tablet separately weighs 4.04lbs (approximately 1.83kg).
