Get the best of both worlds with a Windows 8 convertible

Your tablet and PC in one

Windows 8 is designed for touch and mouse and keyboard, so you can work, play, and multitask in cool new ways and still get things done the way you’re used to.

Your entertainment center

Choose from thousands of apps and games in the Windows Store—many of them are free. Use your PC in laptop mode when you have work to do and then undock the tablet for 1:1 presentations or to unwind with the latest TV shows, movies, games, and music.

It’s your PC, even when everyone else uses it

With Windows 8, if multiple people use your PC, everyone gets their own account, so everybody’s stuff stays the way they want it. Not only that, your files, apps, and settings follow you to any other Windows 8 PC or tablet that you sign in to.

Faster startup and longer battery life

With a new Windows 8 convertible, you can start up quicker than ever and your apps will run faster. New Windows 8 PCs and tablets use less power and have longer battery life, so you can do more on a single charge.
