It does. If the laptop is light enough, you can handle it (grab it, put it back on the table etc.) comfortably with one hand even while laying away from it etc. It becomes almost as comfortable to quickly grab as a tablet or a phone.


Laptops are not designed to be handled with one hand. It's a nice benefit but it definitely should not be the target, especially at the cost of better usability, which is the entire issue here.


Is this slight advantage worth compromising the machines main input device for?
