Hi sifu, can recommend me 2 in 1 tablet or laptop?
Budget 4k, can still go few hundreds higher.
Requirement: touch screen, pen, at least 4c8t, HDMI or USB-C display output. I guess with TPM 2 since Win 11 needs it.

This budget I see can get Surface Pro 7. Is there any other way cheaper alternative?

Few years ago others like Acer or Lenovo, 2k plus can get 2 in 1 with complete pen and keyboard while Surface is only the tablet, keyboard and pen is optional. But now I see most Surface is include both while other brands now also need 4k. Or should I wait for Surface Pro 8? If price almost same as as Surface Pro 7, looks like good jump on the specs and features.

Few post up someone mention Lenovo Ideapad Flex 5. Now is less than 4k, is this the best value 2 in 1? The ship time is more than 10 weeks though, usually it will really take this long?

I also saw Asus ZenBook Flip 13, OLED screen makes it tempting. But 8GB RAM only.

Surface quality is meh only? I thought they will make good quality one since it's their flagship. Never use 1 before.

I can wait since still have another laptop for use.
