Best 2-in-1 laptop deals: Turn your laptop into a tablet for $349

Add as a preferred source on Google

Tablets are great for portability, they don’t always have the same sort of power that you’d find on a laptop, and if you grab yourself a 2-in-1, then you’ll get pretty close to a tablet in terms of usability. While 2-in-1 laptops are heavier than tablets, they can give you a similar experience while packing a lot of punch under the hood, making 2-in-1 laptops the perfect middle ground. You also get a lot of 2-in-1 laptops with variable specs under the hood, depending on what you need, and some of them even show up on lists of the best laptops on the market, so you’re not giving up on specs if you don’t want to. Of course, some of the best 2-in-1 laptops can get quite expensive, especially when you’re buying them from some of the best laptop brands out there.

That’s why we’ve gone out and looked for our favorite 2-in-1 laptop deals to help save you some effort. We’ve pulled from HP laptop deals, Dell laptop deals, the classic 2-in-1 Surface Pro deals, and more.

HP Envy 2-in-1 — $800 $1,170 32% off

The 16-inch HP Envy 2-in-1 looks fairly ordinary at first, but opens way beyond the 120 degrees or so that you’re used to, flipping its screen all the way around back. When completely flipped to the bottom, you then control the laptop with the included HP USB-C rechargeable MPP2.0 Tilt Natural Silver Pen. This version of the HP Envy 2-in-1 comes with an Intel Core Ultra 7 under the hood, which is a mid-to-high-end CPU that’s perfect for pretty much most uses. You also get a 1TB SSD to work with and a very reasonable 16GB of RAM so that you don’t have to manage your apps and tabs constantly.

14-inch HP Spectre x360 (refurbished) — $1,099 $1,500 27% off

The HP Spectre x360 is a 2-in-1 that feels solidly constructed and doesn’t skimp on quality physical components in the face of getting the 2-in-1 shape right. As our HP Spectre x360 16 review will make clear, that can mean that the tablet mode feels heavy at times, but that shouldn’t scare you away too much. This is a 2-in-1 made for the long term or, to quote our hands-on review, “should last for years of abuse.” This model has 16GB of RAM, 1TB of storage, and uses an Intel Core Ultra 7 processor.

HP Pavilion 2-in-1 — $650 $900 27% off

The HP Pavilion 2-in-1 is an excellent entry-level convertible laptop, especially since you can get it for a little under $700. Luckily, you do get some mid-range hardware, such as the Intel Core 7 CPU,  16GB of RAM that isn’t too bad, and 256GB of storage should be enough for most folks who stream most of their content. Of course, you also get a 14-inch touchscreen, which is great if you want a laptop that can function in tablet mode, and a fingerprint reader, which can come in very handy if you need that extra level of authentication.

Asus Chromebook Plus 2-in-1 14 — $330 $400 18% off

One advantage of going with a Chromebook is that ChromeOS is much less resource intensive, so you can run slightly less powerful hardware, such as the mid-range AMD Ryzen 3 7320C. That should be more than enough for general day-to-day work, as well as getting some productivity work done as well, and the 8GB of RAM should give you a relatively smooth experience. Also, one big positive of using ChromeOS is that it’s great for those who are already in the Google ecosystem, although its worth noting that not all Windows app will be available on ChromeOS, so double-check that your important apps are.

Microsoft Surface Laptop Studio 2 — $1,750 $2,100 17% off

The Microsoft Surface Laptop Studio 2.

The very recently released Microsoft Surface Laptop Studio 2 has insane stats and a highly convenient folding mechanism that allows the touchpad to be visible at the same time as its screen. It has a 14.4-inch screen, 16GB of RAM, and a 512GB SSD. It runs with an Intel Core i7-13700H processor. Our Surface Laptop Studio 2 review gave a lot of attention to the special PixelSense Flow display, which is only a small upgrade over the previous version’s display but will look great for anyone who isn’t changing laptops every time a new model hits the shelves.

Samsung’s Galaxy Book5 360 brings — with the exception of the graphics card — premium hardware to make a quality, touchable (and pen-able, if you purchase an S Pen separately) 2-in-1 suitable for creatives and workers alike. It runs on 16GB of RAM with an Intel Core 7 Ultra processor. You’ll have 512GB of SSD storage, but there is also a microSD port (in addition to Thunderbolt 4 and USB-C ports) to give you ample room to store and manipulate video, artwork, and whatever other files you’ll need for work, hobbies, and recreation.

Meta’s detection tool fails to identify photos generated by its own Muse Image AI
Meta has created an invisible watermarking tool called Content Seal that is embedded in all images generated by the Muse Image AI.
Meta AI identification tool.

Earlier this week, Meta announced two new AI products, namely, Muse Image and Muse Video. As the name suggests, these are generative AI tools for making photos and video clips using natural language text prompts. Soon after their rollout commenced, these tools sparked controversy because Meta had automatically opted in Instagram users, allowing others to use their publicly posted media and convert them into remixed AI content. But it appears that Meta courted another loss on its side of the court.

Your Google AI Studio apps can finally have polished, presentable web links
AI Studio web apps can now use personalized subdomains
google ai studio logos

Google AI Studio has made building a web app surprisingly easy. You can describe what you want, refine the design through prompts, and publish the result without setting up a traditional development environment. An awkward point of friction comes after deployment, when the finished app still has to live behind a long, forgettable Cloud Run link.

Google is now cleaning up that final step. AI Studio lets you assign a deployed web app a personalized address under the “ai.studio” domain, such as “your-app-name.ai.studio.” A recognizable URL should make the project look more presentable in a portfolio, client demo, social post, or internal project page.

Ever looked at an ad and wondered if a real person made it or if it was AI generated in seconds? Google is now giving you a way to find out.

The company just announced a new AI transparency label that tells you whether an ad was created or edited using generative AI tools. The label lives inside Google's My Ad Center, and it is rolling out across Google Search, YouTube, and Discover globally.
