For general use, the HP Envy x360 15 offers a touchscreen and a larger display, which might be more comfortable for everyday tasks, despite its slightly higher price. It also has a more powerful processor and better graphics, making it a versatile choice for light gaming or creative work. However, the Acer Aspire Go 14 is more portable due to its smaller size and longer battery life, making it ideal for on-the-go use. While it may not perform as well as the HP for demanding tasks, it's a solid choice for basic computing needs and offers better value if budget is a concern. If you prioritize performance and versatility, go with the HP Envy x360 15; if portability and battery life are more important, the Acer Aspire Go 14 is the way to go. Give Feedback

CNET

Matt Elliott | January 2023
"Despite its good looks, stellar webcam and comfortable keyboard, the Envy x360 15 is hard to recommend because of its dim, 16:9 display. If the display isn't an issue for you, just be sure to wait for a good sale price. Otherwise, a more modern two-in-one with a 16:10 display such as the Dell Inspiron 16 2-in-1 or Lenovo Yoga 7i 16 provides a larger workspace without adding much to the size and weight of the system."
