convertible laptop

Tablet-mode portable computer

A convertible laptop is a portable computer with a screen that folds, swivels, or detaches to function as a tablet.

The keyboard remains attached but can be folded behind the screen or laid flat, allowing the device to shift between laptop and touchscreen modes: I use my convertible laptop as a tablet for reading on planes.
