2in1 tablet PC. Convenience and functionality in a single device
Is it better to choose a PC, a tablet or a 2in1 tablet PC?
IT evolution is proceeding at a rapid pace and in addition to making improvements in characteristics, it also brings evolutions in formats and form factors.
An evolution that is also contamination, with tools that come together in the name of simplicity, ease of use and efficiency.
One of the most brilliant results of this hybridization process is that of the 2 in 1, the so-called Tablet PC.
2 in 1 or 2in1, the tablet PC
As can be seen from its name, 2in1 is a solution that brings something more to the user who is already using a PC or laptop :
What is a 2in1 tablet PC?
Indicated by different names and acronyms (tablet PC, 2in1 , 2-in-1 or even 2 in 1) this type of "machine" is simply a PC that combines the typical characteristics of a laptop and a tablet in a single chassis .
This double functionality makes the 2in1 tablet PC a product with a very wide choice, which varies based on the size of the screen, the characteristics of the hardware, its weight and equipment and finally the cost.
In fact, it would be a mistake to think that a 2in1 PC is necessarily a very expensive device (it is mistakenly thought that being a 2in1 costs the same as the sum of the two) because on the market there are 2 in 1 tablet PCs for practically every price range.
From a technical point of view, a 2 in 1 is simply a computer that combines the characteristics of two others in a single device. Nothing innovative from the point of view of the idea, given that this product has existed for years, but something finally attractive, given that until recently 2in1 devices were considered heavy and bulky.
Today the evolution of the PC and its peripherals, combined with those of displays and "hinges", brings added value to 2in1s , offering many exclusive functions with minimal increased size in terms of weight.
An evolution of the category, which makes it practically new.
What makes a 2in1 different from a laptop or tablet?
Generally speaking, a 2in1 computer is made up like a modern laptop in all its aspects and primary equipment. Obviously an advanced version of the same, so usually we won't find a CD/DVD player, also to optimize space.
Instead, there is ample space for wireless connectivity and ports, with a numerical and model allocation comparable to that of a high-end laptop.
Then there are other characteristics that define a 2 in 1, here they are:
Types of 2in1
In addition to the computing power, the screen size and the various additional features, we can find another distinction given by the configuration of the screen and the type of keyboard:
Convertible laptop . Also known as “2 in 1 attached”. In this type of configuration the keyboard is a physical part of the device and cannot be disconnected from it. This category includes models with hinges that allow the screen to be flipped and rotated and those in which the keyboard physically exits the screen/body of the device Hybrid laptop . Also known as “2 in 1 detachable”. In this configuration the keyboard, although part of the device, is detachable from it. This therefore allows you to have a real tablet at your disposal, which can then be "grafted" into the element containing the keyboard, to return to the classic 2in1 configurationThe choice between the two types therefore becomes very personal and differentiated based on the user's uses and preferences.
What can you do with a 2 in 1?
The 2in1 is a hybrid that especially winks at laptop users in order to give them an extra possibility. This category of users is in fact the main target of manufacturers who, however, push less in the opposite direction, that of " tablet " users.
However, even for the latter, the 2in1 offers many possibilities also based on the intended use:
To summarize and conclude we can therefore say that 2in1 is a system and solution that allows the convenience of a tablet with the performance of a notebook , a hybrid that currently represents the pinnacle of IT evolution.
