Hi, Maybe you can help me. I looking for a 2 in 1 tablet laptop with 500 gb and that has a detachable keyboard 11" like in your video where it snappes on and off. What make and model is the one in the Video also is it 11"? Also what other makes and model 2 in 1 tablet laptops with 500gb and detachable keyboards that snappes off and that are 11" are there? I thought Dell inspiron made a 2 in 1 tablet laptop that was 500gb had a detachable keyboard that snapped of easy. But can't find it anymore. Write Back Thanks Varian

Whatever you decide on, don’t get a Dell XPS15 2 in 1. My Dell 2 in 1 XPS15 kept giving the message that the memory was not the correct memory. Easy, I thought. I’ll just install the correct memory. NOPE! The memory is soldered to the motherboard. My £2,000+ laptop is useless. This, conveniently only happened just after the warranty ran out. Up until then, the laptop started, and worked really fast and as smooth as silk. These people who make these planned obsolescence laptops are unscrupulous. To say I’m angry is a vast understatement. If I ever hear of Dell going bankrupt, I will be partying for days.

soldered memory should be illegal..

I just showed this video to a friend who is not tech savvy at all. She wants to replace her laptop with something where she can have a keyboard separate from the screen, because she's quite tall. This was a great introduction as to options for her.

I REALLY am interested in the convertible designs. The detachable designs seem like a poor choice for longevity ease cost of repair because I bet they are harder to repair because virtually all components are in only the one half, plus they will be top heavy.

@xy2575 6 ай бұрын

I think the convertible ones are more like a tablet, which is not effective for writing long texts. The detachable designs are perfect for working at home and using it as a tablet secundarily

@ajinkyamehere5365 2 жыл бұрын

One benefit of using a detachable is that you can mount the screen anywhere you want and still work using a keyboard and mouse.

@badreddinegacem 2 ай бұрын

Can you use the tablet separately from the rest of the laptop (keyboard part of the laptop)? If yes can you make it function as a regular monitor and connect it to a desktop pc ?

@badreddinegacem 2 ай бұрын

Can you turn on the laptop only not the entire laptop? Does it have peripherals for connecting it to a desktop pc ? I know this is a confusing question so ask me anything you didnt understand

Thank you helped a lot I'm deciding whether I get a 2-in-1 detachable or just a regular laptop for games I have a creative idea I want I draw and animate but I'm not good at it so I'll be fine with a regular laptop if that's okay but this video made me just realize more How much I rather just use a 2-in1- instead of playing games now with a stylist It also gave me insight between convertible and detachable. And then again even if I do get a regular laptop I can still animate nonetheless so yeah. I hope I make the right choice. Thanks

I can see why Apple doesn’t make 2-in-laptops. They are kind of a gimmick.

@ajinkyamehere5365 2 жыл бұрын

No, they are certainly not. However, they don't make sense for all (or even most) people, unlike traditional clamshell laptops.

@kawaiiroses4826 2 жыл бұрын

and give people the chance to pay for 1 device instead of 2 ? Nah Also if they did , itll be too expensive

@minhazulislam4682 3 жыл бұрын

@PCMag or anyone else, can you please tell me what laptop is seen at 2:27 ?? I need a 2 in 1 laptop and struggling to decide. I need high performance(i5 10th gen would be enough I think), decent display,16 gig ram(if 8 it should be expandable), 512 to 1TB storage(if 256, it should be expandable) and touch display with precise pen support. (I don't want to build a pc because I want portability and I want a long lasting device...well because who doesn't)
