HP Pavilion x360 15
$549

The Pavilion x360 15 is the budget convertible pick. At $549 it's roughly 60% the price of the Lenovo Yoga 7 — appropriate for students and casual users who want 2-in-1 form factor without paying $1000+. Outgrown faster than every other pick here.

Strengths
  • Cheapest 2-in-1 in this round-up under $600
  • Intel Core i5 or i7 SKUs available
  • 15.6" 1080p touchscreen
Watch-outs
  • Partially plastic chassis flexes more than the Yoga 9i or Spectre x360 14

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
