Or, more specifically, the so-called DeXbook would combine the in-house desktop experience with Google’s ChromeOS. It’s a far-out idea but might work under the right circumstances.

Read MoreI don’t count myself among those who hate the iPhone. I may not agree with Apple’s prices and practices sometimes, but I can’t say that I love or hate the company’s iOS-powered smartphones.

Read MoreAs much as I enjoy using numerous Samsung hardware and software products, one of the areas I very much dislike about the company’s mobile business is how it markets keyboard cover accessories for Galaxy tablets.
