Part of Harvey Norman's 1-day sale.
Think it is the cheapest it has been. The other configurations are also on sale but this is probably best bang for your buck:
m3, 4gb RAM, 128gb hard drive: $999 after cash back http://www.harveynorman.com.au/hp-spectre-x2-a005tu-12-2-in-…
m5, 8gb RAM, 256gb hard drive: $1038 after cash back http://www.harveynorman.com.au/hp-spectre-x2-a002tu-12-2-in-…

They say they have a price guarantee fir 7 days after purchase. Contact them now for some money back. Do it quick, only a few days left.
I searched before but couldn't find it on their page. I have to make sure they don't cancel the original invoice so the cashback claim isn't invalidated. I might give the store a call today.
If you paid on a credit card with price protection maybe look into it too.
Dropped by and they refunded the difference with no hassles!
Good news.
Are these any good for video editing?
I went to their staff sale in caringbah and they put the price for M5 for $1600 even though the day before, their online price is around $1200. They won't even try to reduce it.
Good thing come to those who wait. Thanks seejay80.
Wow fantastic value when comparing with the Surface Pro 4.
Obvious spec differences but for the price, fantastic deal.
For m3 price, binglee has m5 with 8gb ram for the same price.
Link please
https://www.binglee.com.au/hp-p7f63pa-spectre-x2-12-detachab… has it at $1099.
I'm not familiar with the cash back and whether the $1099 is before/after cash back.
It is a pity that can't find it from their Ebay .
The Binglee model only appears to have a 128gb hard drive vs 256gb in the Harvey Norman model. Think the extra storage space might be worth $39. But m7 model is probably best value.
@seejay80:
Yes, but for the same price, you got m5 and 8gb of ram for $1099 rather than m3 and 4g in harvey.
Is this powerful enough for video editing?
I'm not sure about video editing. If it requires good video card, may not be a good idea. The video card is not good. Google a review for it and there are many of them.
Nope.
It really depends on what kind of videos you want to edit, how often you'll be doing it, how patient you are, and what kind of video files you're working with.
Got an m7 today, cracking deal. The build quality is pretty awesome and saved hundreds over the equivalent Surface Pro.
Has anyone been able to get the M7/8/512 version from HN at the $1393 price … it's now around $1500
That price was for one day only.
Hmm … I know but sometimes HN are willing to go back to the price if they want to move stock, or if JB have a similar deal (ie. the 15% off) and they want to match … it's $200 more now than 2.5 weeks ago, and I'm thinking if they could have done it for that price back then … well, it's worth a crack now?
FWIW, i called 2 stores asking them to match the price from 21 May and they both sales guys said it was never priced at that … ah well…
You'd be doing well to get that price again, it was a ripper!
Yeah … apparently HP offered a spot rebate to HN for end of month target/sales, and it doesn't make sense to offer it now as ppl are going to buy due to EOFY sales, so consumers will most likely buy … I'm going to hold out until July/Aug and see what happens … need to return my work HP Spectre x360 … so thought the Spectre X2 is a nice replacement.
Just picked up the m5/8GB model for $1375 before cashback from Harvey on Monday. Mmmm.
