Porsche Design and the Microsoft got united to create one of the slickest laptops ever. The new 2-in-1 called the Book One was announced at Mobile World Congress 2017 last Feb. 27.

Microsoft should be greatly impressed of whatever accomplishments around Surface Book 2 for its help in the Book One design to become a stunning device. According to TechRadar, the new Porsche Design laptop is a 13.3-inch and 15.8mm-thin hardware.

These were integrated inside polished aluminum housing with a flawless anodized outer appearance. The laptop will come with a hinge design, which is similar to Porsche’s approach in crafting a sports car’s transmission.

The hinge is intended for the Porsche Design Book One to rotate 360 degrees and to be separated from its keyboard base completely. The device will be launched in the United States this April with a price of $2,495 (about £2,004, AU$3,250).

The Porsche Design Book One is going to run with Intel’s newest Core i7-7500U (Kaby Lake) processor at 3.5GHz. It’s supported by 16GB of RAM and 512GB of Intel-brand, PCIe solid-state storage. Its 13.3-inch QHD+ (3,200 x 1,800) touch display has inter-plane switching (IPS) for wider viewing angles. Porsche will introduce a totally current system in terms of substance and style.

The Porsche Design Book One will be having also  two USB-C ports, two more standard USB 3.0 ports, one Thunderbolt 3 (USB-C) port. It will sport a 5MP infrared webcam for Windows Hello login through Windows 10 Pro.

According to The Verge, the Porsche Design Book One will support a digital stylus that attaches magnetically to the right side of the device. The notebook’s hardware was possibly accomplished by Quanta, which is a company that also helped in the making of Amazon’s Fire tablets.

The major difference between the Porsche Design Book One and a Surface Book is obviously the hinge. Both the Surface Book and the Book One’s screen are detachable. However, the latter can also be rotated at 360 degrees.
