Microsoft reigns 2-in-1s
To see how convertibles can be used best, one only needs to take a look at Microsoft: The Surface product family offers flexibility, productivity and mobility like no other. The Surface Books are detachables in 13 and 15-inch format with high-resolution detachable touchscreens, strong battery power and high performance. They also support input via Surface Pen, a Surface Dial can be used and they are compatible with the Surface Dock.

The Surface tablets are even more mobile. The Surface Pro and Surface Go series include ultra-light tablets with a keyboard cover. There is no more mobile way to accommodate PC performance. The optional Surface Pen is simply clipped to the side using a magnet, you can easily access the system without entering a password using infrared face scanning (Windows Hello) and the keyboards are also particularly comfortable to type on. But not only Microsoft has professional devices on offer.

There is significantly more variety in the 2-in-1s with a 360-degree hinge compared to the detachables in the Microsoft Surface family. Similarly luxurious, durable and high-performance convertibles can be found, for example, at HP in various series with the addition of x360 to the devices' names. There are product families called Spectre, Envy, Pavilion or EliteBook for different budgets and use cases. For uncompromising power, you are probably best served with the models from the HP Spectre x360 series. These are available in 13- and 15-inch form factors, although the latter no longer really passes for a tablet when folded down.

Discrete graphics chips are used, which you can use for casual games such as Fortnite or CS:GO. The graphics cards also accelerate various effects in image and video editing. In the 15-inch range, convertibles therefore have a slightly more nuanced multimedia character.

Popular Acer 2-in-1:
In addition to many touchscreen laptops, Acer also has a few 2-in-1s in its portfolio. Acer refers to the 360° hinges with the "Spin" label.
They cover the range from 13 inches or smaller, for flexible, mobile use, up to 15 inches, with ambitions for entertainment, multimedia and gaming. At around 2 kilograms, the larger convertibles are still sufficiently portable for the daily commute to university, for example - you'll just notice that you're carrying around a bigger screen and more performance.
Conclusion: 2-in-1 convertibles are modern all-rounders
Comfortable working, convenient logins, high performance and endurance. 2-in-1s are the most creative of all mobile PCs. You'll have to get used to it first and probably won't be able to immediately exploit its full potential upon transitioning from a traditional laptop. Once you got used to the flexibility, you probably won't be able to live without it anymore. Time for change!
