portability
Carry it anywhere
Portability is the quality of being easily carried or moved.
A laptop's portability makes it preferable to a desktop.
The term extends to abstract transferability: the portability of health insurance between jobs, the portability of software across operating systems, the portability of pensions when changing employers.
