There are laptops, and there are tablets. The former are time-tested and reliable, the latter are modern and "advanced". Both have their own advantages and disadvantages, and depending on the situation, each of them may be more useful than the other.
But the inventors came up with a combined version - a tablet and a laptop in one, in another way - a transformer. Such a portable personal computer with an expandable screen is easily displayed on the table.
Transformers are versatile, because depending on the situation they can be used as a laptop and as a tablet. In addition, there are netbook transformers, also compact and ergonomic.
The tablet and laptop models in one have combined such useful qualities for users as the ability to enter data using the sensor and the versatility of working with the keyboard, while both methods should be convenient. This explains the fact that tablet computers are equipped with small screens, because such a device would be difficult to use as a tablet. As a rule, manufacturers equip their tablet and laptop in one screen, the diagonal of which is 12 inches.
I must say that for such a device a touch touchpad is not especially necessary, it is rather present here as an appendage and is not required. Nevertheless, manufacturers are trying to put as many functions as possible into one universal gadget.
Asus Laptop
The leading gadget manufacturers in the world are engaged in the production of such devices. Asus is a trendsetter in the tablet world. Let's look at two models of devices from this manufacturer.
Bold design and novelty of solutions - Transformer Book Trio. This is the best laptop tablet you can use in any situation. After all, such a Transformer can easily turn into three different devices at once. In addition to a laptop and tablet, Asus Transformer Book Trio is also a personal ultraportable Windows computer. Here is a screen with a diagonal of 11.6 inches, as well as a docking station, which is hidden in the keyboard.
If you connect them together, you get an ultrabook with Windows 8. It’s enough to separate them, and you have an Android tablet in your hands, and the filling of Windows 8 remains inside the keyboard. You can connect an external monitor and mouse to the latter - here you have a full-fledged personal computer. In a word: twist, twirl, as your heart desires.
Another bold move by Asus was the laptop and tablet in one Taichi. This unique device is equipped with two screens. In open form, Taichi is the most ordinary laptop. If you close the device, a beautiful real touch screen that can work with the stylus will appear before your eyes. This laptop tablet opens up unique opportunities for artists, but still the screen instead of the top cover is not a very reliable solution.
The creative imagination of modern designers and inventors has no limits. What else can you expect, for example, next year? A tablet and laptop in one are devices that are increasingly conquering the market today. They become more universal, thanks to the desire of developers to create a single device that combines the functions of several gadgets at once.
