some hybrids are essentially full-time tablets to get a keyboard added on to become a part-time laptop but potentially more useful is something like the Samsung notebook 7 spin which looks and feels like a standard 15-inch laptop but it has a 360 degree hinge allowing it to fold back into a touchscreen tablet like other 360 degree hinge hybrids including the popular Lenovo yoga series you could stop at a few points along the way such as a kiosk mode or a table tent mode which puts the display front and center on this 15 inch version of the notebook 7 spin you get a full HD touchscreen with an interesting special feature Samsung has included what it calls in HDR mode which means high dynamic range in this case Samsung has created a software HDR filter which when flipped on applies an HDR like effect any video that you're watching honestly in action the effect is pretty subtle it's an interesting idea and if you don't like the effect on your favorite Netflix show you can just turn it off there's one other interesting extra in this model it's an Nvidia 940 m graphics chip that's not going to make it into a top-flight gamer but I could play some mainstream games at medium settings in Full HD resolutions so that makes the Samsung notebooks Evans been one of the only game friendly hybrids I've seen
