It seems convertible laptops have become a new trend on the market. They are essentially a tablet and laptop in one - making them more powerful that your average tablet and thinner and more portable than a laptop.
The problem with quite a lot of tablets on the market is that they lack quite a few features - take the iPad, for example - the OS is pretty limited and you have to rely on apps to do everything. It also doesn't have any memory card slots or USB ports. That's where the convertible laptops come in - most run Windows 8 (and you can change the OS) and the basic features are quite advanced. You have several ports for different functions along the sides as well as having all the multi-touch features of a regular tablet device.
All in all, we can see the appeal of these devices and we're guessing they'll be a huge hit in 2013. Let us know what you think in the comments below.
