HP Introduces Detachable PCs offering mobility and productivity for every task

Dubai, October.9, 2013 — HP introduced HP Split x2, a versatile, two-in-one detachable PC that combines power and portability, during GITEX Shopper 2013.

HP's unmatched portfolio of next-generation PCs are designed to enable users to connect with their information on devices that easily adapt to their needs. By releasing the magnetic hinge, users can move elegantly between the two form factors—tablet and notebook PC—all in one device.

The HP Split x2 is a versatile, two-in-one detachable PC that combines power and portability with the Microsoft® Windows® 8 operating system and powerful 3rd generation Intel® Core™  processor family. Consumers can now enjoy a high-performance ultraportable notebook suited for virtually any intensive task, which doubles as a 33cm (13-inch) tablet to give unparalleled entertainment capability for playing games, videos and more. The HP Split x2 joins the HP SlateBook x2 and HP ENVY x2 as part of HP's detachable PC portfolio.

Whether being used as a high-performance notebook or a tablet, the vibrant 33.8cm (13.3-inch) diagonal HD touchscreen display makes it easier to view and share content, play games with friends and family, or enjoy high-quality music with Beats AudioTM which provides the best-sounding, richest audio experience on a PC.

An optional hard disk in the base expands storage capacity while dual batteries allow users to stay ultra-mobile.

The HP Split x2 offers an eye-catching design with a soft-touch coating that provides a comfortable hold and shows fewer fingerprints. The HP Split x2 also offers exclusive HP innovations such as a 2-megapixel HP TrueVision Full HD(2) front webcam and the HP ImagePad for precise multifinger and gesture navigation.
