I haven't had a laptop in a long time and am unfamiliar with what's out there nowadays. I was looking at an LG Gram but the reviews are not that great. Lightweight is important as is durability but doesn't need to anything too high end as I'd just be using it for reading stuff that I don't need to be at the computer for. Any recommendations are greatly appreciated, Thanks!

Why does it have to be a 2 in 1? generally they're just bad laptops with bad tablet features.
I doesn't specifically need to be a 2in1, but I want a large screen that I can read stuff while in bed & on the couch where it would be sitting on a pillow. Since laptops tend to vent on the bottom I'm thinking a 2in1 in stand mode would allow it to vent upwards and provide a stable base--I don't want to have to hold it while using.
A tablet would work just as well if they made a stable case for the larger ones like Samsung Ultra 14.6. I have a nice Zagg case for my 10.1 tablet that holds it in place just like a laptop, but I haven't found any similar cases for the larger tablets in any brand.
