With this mode, you can enjoy a 17-inch display, tilted at 120 degrees, right before your very eyes. HP says that it leverages an enhanced version of Windows Snap Layouts (a feature that facilitates the management of several windows), so you can take advantage of that massive screen. You can, for example, snap four windows into place, allowing you to cross-reference several documents simultaneously.
2. Laptop mode
If you want a traditional laptop experience, the HP Spectre Fold can transform into a 12.3-inch notebook.

You can also use that 1.5-inch screen that sits before the keyboard as a second screen, allowing you to dive into a multitasking workflow with both the larger 12.3-inch screen and the smaller second display.

3. Tablet mode

On top of that, it's lightweight, too; it's 2.9 pounds. And we're talking about a giant 17-inch tablet here with a striking OLED display.
By the way, it can fold, too.This is, of course, where the product's name comes in. If you need to take the tablet with you during your commute or travels, you can fold it like a book and stuff it into your bag, taking advantage of its flexible portability.

Via GiphyMy only gripe with the Spectre Fold is that, with a starting price of $5,000, it comes with an older 12th Gen Intel Core i7-1250U chip while many laptops in this price range are rocking the more au courant 13th Gen Intel processors. It also comes with Intel Iris Xe graphics, 16GB of RAM, a 1TB SSD, and two Thunderbolt 4 ports.
