#hp folio

Announced back in December, the HP Folio 1020 is the company's first ultrabook that runs on Intel Core M and geared towards the more corporate consumers. Dressed in an ultra-thin body with weight that can almost match that of the Apple MacBook Air at 1.2 kg, the Folio 1020 sports a high resolution 12.5-inch diagonal Quad HD (QHD) display, 8GB of RAM and an SSD with a 512GB capacity. HP claims the Folio 1020 is the world's thinnest and lightest notebok when it was announced and perhaps, there is some truth in that. The Folio 1020 has got that Macbook vibe to it especially with the matte silver-gray finish in a clam-shell design. Despite the small and compact design, HP managed to put a lot of ports and an expansion slot on the Folio 1020 -- there are two USB 3.0 ports, an HDMI port, microSD card reader, 3.5mm audio and mic port, and an expansion port that when attached to the extension dongle can serve up VGA and LAN connections. The Folio 1020 is compatible with the HP 2013 UltraSlim Docking Station to extend the capability of the laptop (there are slots at the underside to fit into the dock). On top of these, the Folio 1020 also comes with a built-in NFC for quick pairing with 3rd-party accessories and a fingerprint scanner for added security (like password-less logging to Windows 8).
