Hi everyone,

I’m looking for a new laptop and was wondering about 2-in-1 laptops.

Are there any issues with buying this type of laptop?

How is the durability of the hinges over a long period of time?

Are there any issues with these I should be aware of?

Thanks!

    you gonna have a hard time finding screen protectors.

    Usually you cannot add ram sticks.

    Some are really hard to fix, including battery replacement.

    Pick a faction (wacom vs mpp) and stick with it.

    Used dells can be really good for value.

    Some are with tb3, you can play arma3 1080p@30 with a gpu dock on 5290.

    Most detachable works bad on you lap.

    Some 360 degree 2-in-1s, like x360-15ew, can only be powered on in laptop mode.

    Linux drivers can be hits-and-misses. Weird bugs can occur.

    They may not make phone calls in windows.
