Engadget Review
The HP Elite Folio, with its unique leather build and pull-forward touchscreen, is a compelling convertible on paper. Unfortunately, it’s crazy expensive at $1,889, especially for a Windows on ARM device.
A leather build, pull-forward screen and LTE connectivity aren't enough to make up for Windows on ARM's flaws.
