NEW HARDWARE ESSENTIAL ACCESSORIES LATEST GADGETS
The rise of the
2-in-1 laptop
has been a
fascinating one
to watch
From the earliest attempts
at handwriting recognition
on Windows XP, to the
emergence of the tablet as a
workable form factor, and
the need to be seen as
neither a laptop with a
touchscreen nor a tablet with
a keyboard, but something
new and separate, they’ve
never quite hit the heights
they promised.
Now, with Intel’s 10th-gen
CPUs and their improved
graphics processing, could
this be the year of the
hybrid? Our group test on
p72 attempts to find out.
