I have to be honest right up front: I’m not really a tablet guy. I want to be – I promise – but when it comes down to it, a large-screened phone handles most of my gaming, reading and casual consumption stuff and when I need a bigger screen, I normally want a keyboard to go along with it. So, in most scenarios, a Chromebook is a perfect fit for that use case. Between the two (phone and thin/light Chromebook), most of my digital needs are met and I start asking the inevitable question: where does a tablet even fit in for me? And the truth is, I just don’t know.

That doesn’t mean I don’t WANT to like tablets. I like the idea of them and I feel like I generally WANT to have a reason to pick one up, but unless I’m forcing myself to do so, my default needs just don’t require one and I never feel compelled to reach for a tablet in my real-world, day-to-day use. However, it’s important to note that I’m not a representative of all consumers. Plenty of people prefer tablets and even find great use for them in both personal and professional settings: I’m just not one of them.

Why am I telling you all of this? Because it became painfully obvious for me during my time with the HP Chromebook x2 11 and instead of trying to approach this device from a philosophical perspective of where tablets do or don’t fit in these days for general consumers, I’ve decided to sidestep that entire conversation and instead focus on what this device does well, where it struggles, and hopefully arm you with enough detail to know if this tablet is the one for you or not. Let’s get into it.
