Not a lot of 2-in-1s still on the market these days. Mildly ruggedized versions are a bit more common in the medical community, but the disinterest in touch-enabled everything is probably applying some drag on the market for these types of systems. Microsoft's lean into conventional notebook PCs with their Surface lineup is a pretty good leading indicator of waning interest in a post tablet fad world.
Overall nice specs being let down by LPDDR3- only memory. Not great for attracting corporate customers, who tend to stay on the same model for years to minimize support costs.

LPDDR3 effectively means it's capped at 16GB of RAM, which ought to be a minimum spec in 2020, not a a maximum.SolarBear28 - Saturday, January 4, 2020 - link
I just think it's strange that in a device where battery life is very important they wouldn't use more efficient LPDDR4.Bulat Ziganshin - Thursday, January 2, 2020 - link
