Use it however you want

But what does it mean to have a convertible? That we can adapt the equipment according to our needs of each moment. The most common use will be in traditional mode, with the keyboard and the screen in the position that any laptop would have.

The spacing between keys also helps the feel offered when writing is adequate.

The touchpad has a really large size, especially wide, and makes it easy to use different gestures multi-touch to change desktop, or scroll on web pages. It does not have physical buttons, although we can click on any point on the surface, having the feeling that you are really pressing a key.
