2 in 1 on a budget
(On mobile forgive any formating errors.)
- **Total budget and country of purchase United States USD 300-600 Do you prefer a 2 in 1 form factor, good battery life or best specifications for the money? Pick or include any that apply. 2 in 1 good battery How important is weight and thinness to you? somewhat, * Which OS do you require? Windows, Mac, Chrome OS, Linux. None, windows or Linux
- Do you have a preferred screen size? If indifferent, put N/A. 15-15.6 Are you doing any CAD/video editing/photo editing/gaming? List which programs/games you desire to run. Light gaming, if it would run a GameCube emulator decently I'm happy * If you're gaming, do you have certain games you want to play? At what settings and FPS do you want? see above * Any specific requirements such as good keyboard, reliable build quality, touch-screen, finger-print reader, optical drive or good input devices (keyboard/touchpad)? stylus or decent stylus support would be awesome, Id like to mess around with some art stuff and digital drawing * Leave any finishing thoughts here that you may feel are necessary and beneficial to the discussion. I dont mind eBay or used basically looking for a 2 in One to learn some introductory coding on (python) play older video games, and some type of smart stylus support to dabble in drawing apps would be nice, also the closest I can get to $300 without sacrificing anything the better, bonus for non soldered on SSD/Ram, I'm willing to give up some slimness for that.

Hey,
You've got a pretty tight budget for a 15-inch 2in1 laptop.
I found this one 20$ over your budget: HP Envy x360 15t - checks most of your requirements (except budget): has a quad-core processor, Full HD LED IPS display, HDD and you can add an SSD, 2 memory slots, over 8H battery life, metal chassis, and a backlit keyboard.
Another 15 inch 2in1 laptop near your budget is this one: Lenovo Yoga 730-15 - has only one memory slot but it has a better peripheral port selection (Thunderbolt) and a better display.
Here is a comparison between them: Lenovo Yoga 730-15 vs HP Envy x360 15t maybe it will help you make a decision.
Hope I helped somehow!
Star, you the man! I always see you helping people out in this subreddit.
Trying to help! Thank you!
