Notebooks with removable keyboards will soon sublimate

The news site DigiTimes has just said that the 'hybrid' touch laptops (with removable keyboards) were developed in the first quarter of 2013, with the proportion accounting for more than 20% of all samples. notebook

However, the problem of this type of device is that the machine hinge has a much more complicated design and the manufacturing process also requires elaboration.

Therefore, the cost of production of each hinge of this type is from 2-3 USD per unit of product, significantly higher than only 0.7-0.8 USD for the type of pine laptop hinges often.

Also from the exploitation of information from hinge manufacturers that DigiTimes learned that notebook manufacturers are showing interest and interest in developing ' hybrid ' touch laptops and they will marketed at least 2-3 models of this type this year.

It is expected that the 'hybrid' series of notebook production will begin after May.

Because hinges are one of the special characteristics, most notebook hinge manufacturers keep their high-end production lines in factories in Taiwan to avoid technology leaks.

The factories in China are only transferred to the universal hinge production line.

With different characteristics, notebook makers expect their new product to attract consumers and improve business performance in the future.
