 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?

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.  

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.
