Score 5.0/10

+ lovely looking and has a good specification and with the added features of touch screen, makes it one of the best of its kind

- Hinge for swivel screen isnt the most secure in the world, seems slow for the spec and has had issues with screen going mad ever since i bought it. Was pleased when first opened the box but now wishing i never bought the thing. This is a great shame as the design and possible functionality is great...

+ this pc got some flashy features like touch screen and twistable screen, so its always a thing to show off your friends and family otherwise just a basic laptop like others. good battery.

- very slow pc. low perfermence speed wise. slow to load programs and to reboot. sometimes i feel like it doesnt have 2 cores. my old ibm laptop is with one core centrino which is as fast as this one. i also keep getting error message from explorer which restarts itself to lose my online work and cant get to the page where i was. THIS IS NOT A NEXT GENETATION PC

Score 10.0/10

+ Does exactly what I wanted it to. Fast, Good storage, tablet screen, lightweight, fits on a train table without upsetting everyone around you. Comes with two batteries which is good as one is twice the size of the other so good for longer journeys (but weighs more)

Mark, Taunton

Score 9.0/10

+ The ability to turn the screen around and make it into a Tablet PC is great. The touchscreen interface works really well with both fingers and the included pen. The wireless and bluetooth connections work brilliantly - fast and easy to set up.

- The screen goes very strange when it's been left alone for a while - instead of the screensaver it's full of fuzzy lines and sometimes moving the mouse or touching the screen doesn't bring it out of this.

Score 10.0/10

+ Touch screen is excellent, came with 2 batteries, even though the one itself is good enough, surprisingly good webcam and software

- even though remote is good, it cannot be disabled, so you have to put tape over the 2 sensors if you don't want other people to be affecting your laptop when they are using a remote on theirs

Expert reviews for Hewlett Packard TX2050EA

PC Advisor expert review - by Darren Gladstone

In the laptop world, touchscreens have mostly been limited to business-minded Tablet PCs. But the HP TouchSmart tx2 gets props for bringing touch to the masses.

TechRadar expert review

The notion of a Tablet PC for home use is something that is still in its infancy, largely due to tablets being seen as business tools and the fact there are very few consumer applications for the Tablet PC. However, the HP Pavilion tx2050ea (¬£699 inc. VAT) is billed as an 'Entertainment PC', which means it comes with media buttons for accessing your movies and music instead of simply being used for business.Compact and classy designThe styling is very much in line with HP's current consumer laptops, with a sharp contrast between the black lacquer of the lid and the silver of the main …
