Honestly, I hate touchscreen laptops and two-in-one devices. I wonder if I can just turn off the touch capability of this display.

I like the fact that you can use it as a drawing tablet. But I've never understood why anyone would want to touch screen laptop. Microsoft has already proven people don't want that, get companies still make them.

It's more convenient than dragging a cursor across the screen. Works especially great with a 360° hinge.

I got my thinkpad with touch screen. The nipple is a bit shitty and the touchpad stops working unless its in optimal hand humidity conditions. Touchscreen just works and its good when someone else is pointing at your screen.

I recommend the 13, it is light and it doesn't have a touchscreen

Or, you can just not touch the screen..

I am legally blind, so I have to get close to the screen in order to properly see it. So accidental touches can sometimes occur.
