convertible laptops

 One of the hottest laptop categories these days are 2-in-1 hybrids, a category started by (and still led by) the Microsoft Surface and Surface Pro. What if you want something less expensive? That’s where the Acer Switch One 10 fills a void, providing an affordable, compact Windows 10 2-in-1 option at Chromebook prices.

 It’s tough to beat a convertible, 2-in-1 laptop for versatility. You get a laptop, tablet and everything in between in a single device. With the ASUS VivoBook Flip TP501U, you also get a big, Full HD display, a Core i7 CPU and Nvidia’s 940M graphics card, making this convertible laptop a compelling combination of versatility and power.

You’ve got a busy life on the go, which is why you need a device that’s infinitely portable and easy to use, whether you are in the office, in a hotel or airport, or just sitting at home on the couch. So, how do you choose between a 2-in-1 tablet PC and a laptop? Read on and I’ll give you a few tips.

2-in-1 computers like the Surface Pro target people who want a tablet and a laptop in a single, ultra-compact device. But can a 2-in-1 tablet PC really replace a laptop? Absolutely! With one caveat ... I’ll explain how and the one catch if you decide to replace your laptop with something like a Surface Pro.

Google’s Pixelbook is a Chromebook venturing into a very different calibre than in the past, and its potential will be rosy for some, unclear for others.

 The concept of a laptop has shifted in the last five years to include a greater variety of models and form factors that can alter or expand usability. The Asus ZenBook UX360 is a hybrid PC that can act as a tablet when fully flipped over a full 360-degrees. How it does that isn’t new, but the combination of design, performance and affordability might be just the right mix to be appealing to anyone looking for something like this.

Convertible tablets have had a hard time winning out as 2-in-1 laptop replacements, but Samsung thinks it put together the right combination with its latest Galaxy Books.

With a smaller screen and a lightweight frame, Microsoft’s Surface Go is a 2-in-1 laptop and tablet that strives to be serviceable in every way.

Is it a tablet, or a Chromebook? The ASUS Flip is both! But does it manage to do both things well? Read this review and find the answer you're looking for.

Sony’s Vaio series of PC laptops has always won points for style and design and the company has become a leader in producing Windows 8 hybrid machines —portables that combine Windows 8 PC and tablet capabilities. I’ve spent the past week trying out Sony’s latest take on the hybrid form factor. After putting it through its paces, I can assure you that the Vaio Fit 15A is one of the most useful variations yet on the tablet/notebook convertible hybrid, a real looker (especially in the black finish of the test unit) and an able performer. It’s held back a little by a few details —a loud and persistent fan, so-so keyboard, and not so stellar battery life among them— but offers a solid portable computer experience, along with tablet capability, in a single package that just happens to look pretty smashing.
