HP EliteBook Revolve 810 The 11.6-inch Gorilla Glass 2-covered touch display feels great, looks sharp, and has great viewing angles, but it has only a 1,366x768-pixel resolution. That doesn't matter quite so much for most everyday tasks, but keep in mind that other 11-inch laptops like the Sony Vaio Pro 11 and ThinkPad Helix (and even the 10-inch Surface Pro) all have 1,920x1,080-pixel resolutions.A compact magnesium alloy body and sturdy design make the EliteBook Revolve 810 a great laptop to work on.
But, Disappointing battery life, high price, and slightly thicker body than more consumer-targeted systems.
The bottom line: HP’s EliteBook Revolve 810 is a good first step toward a very portable business laptop-tablet hybrid, but lack of a killer battery life hurts it. Specifications

Optical DriveNone Price $1,449 VS Lenovo ThinkPad Helix The ThinkPad Helix is powered by a third generation Intel Ivy Bridge processor, up to Core i7 and up to 8GB of DDR3 1600MHz RAM. Aiding performance is an SSD of up to 256GB so its performance is top-notch. You’ll be able to choose between Windows 8 and Windows 8 Pro.The Lenovo ThinkPad Helix will be available in an array of spec configurations, but the one we saw demonstrated was a mid-range example, with a Core i5 processor. Core i7 options will also be available. The ThinkPad Helix uses current Ivy Bridge-generation CULV Intel chips, backed-up by 8GB of RAM and a 256GB SSD. The screen and base are each under 2.0 pounds, but that's on the hefty side for an 11.6-inch system. That said, it's 20mm thin, qualifying for ultrabook status, and can run processors up to Intel's current-gen Core i7.Travel-friendly features include 3G/4G antenna options, NFC chip, and a spill-resistant keyboard.The Lenovo ThinkPad Helix feels like a hybrid roadwarrior. It's reasonably light, especially in its class, offers great build quality and careful attention to detail in its construction. It may not be a beauty, but it's one of the better full Windows 8 hybrid designs out there.
Price;$1,499 VS Asus Taichi 21 The
Asus Taichi 21 offers a clever implementation of a dual-screen design in a slim
Core i7 chassis.It features dual 11.6" IPS displays with 16:9 aspect
ratios and Full HD 1920 x 1080 native resolutions, thanks to the integrated
Intel HD Graphics 4000. The main screen inside the lid is a normal laptop
display while the outer lid features a secondary touchscreen display. Both
screens can be used independently of each other so two people can use them at
the same time.
But, Only one of the
screens is touch-enabled, which feels like a major oversight. There are
probably only a handful of situations where you'd need an outward-facing
display.Tablet Mode is on par with this, lasting for 2 hours and 27 minutes.
The Taichi is greedier in Dual-Screen Mode, lasting 1 hour and 48 minutes. That
last score isn’t too bad considering both displays are on, and screens are one
of the biggest battery hogs on a laptop.
The bottom line: More of
a clever proof-of-concept than a practical product, the Asus Taichi still
delivers on its basic promise, combining two displays for a unique take on the
laptop/tablet/hybrid genre. Specifications
