The second generation of first-line brand tablet thickness is less than 1cm in most of the control. The thickness of the basic laptop is around in 20mm. Ultra-thin notebooks have more than 15mm. The internet in notebook also use 10 inch LCD screen. Ordinary notebook use more than 11 inch screen, among of them, 14 inch notebook is the largest number.
