2in1s make a laptop immensely more versatile and useful:
- Tent mode is a much better to watch movies on or play games (via controller)
- In tent mode you can position a keyboard how you like, and you can put a secondary screen more how you would on a proper desktop. This way you can create a comfortable full desktop work environment on every desk.
I wouldn't even care much about the touchscreen otherwise, although it's a nice way to read articles on a train.
