[Electronics-Talk] 2-in-one's

Sat May 20 15:33:35 UTC 2017

Lauren,
a system has one operating system. Windows runs on laptops  and tablets.
So, the dell is a windows machine, nothing to do with android. The tablet 
will be the same operating system as
the laptop.

As someone else said, I encourage you to touch one and get a demo of it 
prior to buying it.
In my area we have a windows store. I went there once or twice and they 
seemed friendly and well staffed.
I think a trip to a windows store is a good idea if its in your area.

Ashley

Hi,
But even if it is running Windows ten, it would have Android for the tablet?

Thanks

You would use it as a tablet, for taking very short notes, using apps to
listen to music, the things that don't take much text input.  It will be
slower typing on the tablet's virtual keyboard, versus using either a
Bluetooth, or the keyboard that comes with that particular tablet.  You
would use it as a laptop, doing longer notes, papers, and such with Office,
with writing e-mails, ETC.
If you are familiar with an iPhone, the gestures are similar.  There are
some differences, but you double tap to select things swipe up, down, right,
and left, things like that. I don't know anything about you, so it's hard to
tell  you exactly. The good thing about the tablet is, that it's light,
portable, you can pair it with a Bluetooth speaker if you like,or a
Bluetooth keyboard, or Braille display.

Hi,
How would you use it as a tablet, different from a keyboard, if it runs
Windows 10? I am thinking strongly about getting it, if I can get financing.
But I want to know something about how to use it before I get it. Having a
smaller computer would be neat to take with me. I could take this laptop
with me without too much trouble, but it's all hooked up to stuff now.
Thanks,
Lauren

Hi, Yes, the keyboard probably comes off. Windows 10 is what the tablet is
running, the keyboard doesn't have an operating system. Just a guess, but
it's probably the tablet, with a case that's docked to one of the sides of
the tablet. The keyboard won't have the number pad, like on a regular
desktop keyboard, so, if you use Jaws or NVDA you will have to use it in
laptop mode If you can get your hands on the machine, play with it a bit!

Hi,
In this ad it says it runs Windows ten. I didn't know if that was just for
the laptop part or if it included the tablet part. Or maybe there aren't two
separate parts? Does the keyboard come off?
Thanks,
Lauren

No, there are Windows tablets, IOS tablets, and Android tablets.  The Dell
is probably a windows 10 tablet. I have a Surface 3 Windows 10 tablet, and
like it very much! You can run Jaws on it.  The touch gestures leave a bit
to be desired, but working it with a keyboard is just fine.

Hi,
The one I am looking at ad-wise is a Dell. It also has a keyboard and also a
touchscreen. So it might be Android, not sure. Are all tablets Android?
Thanks,
Lauren

What kind of tablet is it? I'm using the RCA Galileo pro, which is what they
call a "hybrid laptop, it's a tablet with a keyboard.  It's quite accessible
using the keyboard, but you can separate it from the keyboard, and use it as
a regular tablet.  It's an android device.

Hi,

I received an ad for a tablet and I have questions.

They call it a 2-in-one.

It said you could use it as a laptop or as a tablet. What are the
differences? How would you use it as a tablet? Would that be accessible?

Thanks,

Lauren
