The Toshiba Portege Z20t is a hybrid computing device, introduced at CES 2015, that is capable of functioning as both a laptop and a tablet. It is targeted towards business users and offers a functional, professional design and long battery life.
This convertible laptop-tablet is outfitted with a 12.5-inch 1,920 x 1,080 display which is more than sharp enough for business users. It is equipped with an IPS panel which offers expansive viewing angles.
The device supports up to 10 simultaneous touch points and comes with a detachable keyboard.
The Toshiba Portege Z20t will be available for purchase later this month, with prices starting at $1,399. If you're in the market for a tablet only and don't feel you need a laptop hybrid, you can purchase the tablet-only version minus the keyboard dock and stylus for $899 starting February.
