Surface tablets seem to be doing OK though.
- MBCook 10y agoWhat percent of people regularly use them as tablets without the keyboard?
- mastazi 10y agoI think there are several different characteristics that make us categorise a device as a tablet vs. a laptop, input methods being just one of them; there are many others e.g. form-factor, weight, battery life etc.
- MBCook 10y agoMy point is I don't think people are buying Surface Tablets, I think they're buying Surface Computers (that can operate as Tablets).
- bitmapbrother 10y agoHow many touch optimized apps are on the Surface? I haven't seen many. The majority are still desktop apps and using desktop apps on a tablet isn't a very good UI experience.
- mastazi 10y agoYes I know where you are coming from but as I said in another comment I don't think that the input method should be the main element that defines the difference between a laptop and a tablet.
