Our Verdict
ASUS Zenbook 14 Flip OLED (2023)
HP Spectre x360 14 (2024)
The HP Spectre x360 14 (2024) and the ASUS Zenbook 14 Flip OLED (2023) are both 2-in-1 Windows convertibles with touch and stylus support. The HP has better performance overall, as its CPU doesn't throttle as much as the ASUS' under load, and its battery life is noticeably longer, lasting almost three hours more. It also has a 120Hz display, whereas the ASUS is limited to 90Hz, though this difference in refresh rate doesn't have a significant impact when it comes to productivity tasks. The ASUS laptop's port selection is slightly better, as it has an HDMI port.
