2016 is rapidly turning into the year of the convertible. Over the past four months we've seen tablet-come-laptops from tech powerhouses such as Apple, with its 9.7-inch iPad Pro, and new players in the market such as Huawei, with it sleek-looking MateBook .

Lack of ports is a faff; Performance could be better

This hybrid is a decent tablet, but a mangled laptop

Thin; Dazzling screen; USB-C

No other ports besides USB-C; Dreadful keyboard-screen cover; Stylus not included as standard
