    Hello All,

    I have the 7th Gen x360 13” and I want to upgrade to something better than dual core in 2018.

    I know the 8550 is out now, but I have heard that coffee lake mobile chips may come out in 2018 some time on ultra books.

    My question is, has HP announced what will be available and when or has something leaked so I can guess when it is the right time to buy?

    Thanks,
    R

    Doesn't the 2018 X360 feature Ryzen 5/7? Those are far superior than dual-core 7000 series.

    Not that I have seen... I will recheck the website, though.

    By the way, the HP website where they sell the x360 is tricky...at the end of 2017 they were pushing old models without calling them old. Very dubious...
