Ranked #4 in Best 2-in-1 Convertible Laptops
HP Envy x360 16
$749

The Envy x360 16 is the most-screen-for-the-money pick. 16" 16:10 at $749 — extra screen real estate without OLED premium pricing. Trade-off is portability. Best for users who use the convertible at a desk and don't carry it daily.

Strengths
  • 16" display — largest screen in this lineup at the lowest per-inch cost
  • AMD Ryzen 7 with 16GB RAM
  • Built-in privacy webcam shutter
Watch-outs
  • Heavier (4.5 lbs) — most weight in this lineup
  • 1920×1200 IPS panel (not OLED like the Yoga or Spectre picks)
  • Bigger footprint — not the laptop you fly with

Higher ratedRanked #3 in Best 2-in-1 Convertible Laptops
Lenovo Yoga 7
$849

The Yoga 7 is the OLED-under-$850 pick. Lenovo brought OLED down to this price tier, with the trade-offs you'd expect: hybrid chassis, lower-Hz panel, less premium speakers. Best for buyers who want OLED display quality without paying flagship money.

Strengths
  • 14" OLED panel at under $850 — meaningful display upgrade vs LCD ultrabooks at this price
  • Intel Core Ultra 5 with NPU + Copilot+ features
  • 16GB RAM standard
Watch-outs
  • Plastic-and-metal hybrid chassis vs the Yoga 9i's full metal
  • Speakers are functional, not as impressive as the 9i's soundbar hinge
  • 60Hz OLED vs Yoga 9i's 120Hz
