Portable information handling system housing portions rotationally couple with a mono barrel hinge that integrates a stylus garage in a barrel element coupling hinge elements at opposing ends. The stylus garage is formed as a depression within the barrel element that captures a stylus so that the housing portions enclose the stylus when rotated to a closed position and expose the stylus when rotated to an open position.

A portable information handling system with rotationally coupled housing portions having an OLED film display disposed over the housing portions automatically adapts presentation of visual images at the display based upon detection of a peripheral keyboard placed on the display. For example, a peripheral keyboard biases into a predetermined position with magnetic attraction and a keyboard manager removes content from the display beneath the keyboard.

A portable information handling system with rotationally coupled housing portions having an OLED film display disposed over the housing portions automatically adapts presentation of visual images at the display to the housing portion relative positions and orientation. For example, based on a fold orientation of the housing and a landscape or portrait orientation, visual information adapts to show different user interfaces and content.

A portable information handling system with rotationally coupled housing portions having an OLED film display disposed over the housing portions automatically predicts a housing rotational configuration based at least in part upon end user touches detected at the housing portions. An orientation manager controls hinge positions for hinges that rotationally couple the housing portions to each other to coordinate movement of the housing portions to a desired predicted rotational configuration, such a planar tablet configuration, a folded configuration, or a clamshell configuration.

A portable information handling system may be used in tablet-laptop mode, where a first body and a second body are rotatable about each other within an angular range of about 360&#xb0;. Depending on the detected angular rotation of the first body about the second body, among other detectable usage aspects, line-of-sight operation or non-line-of-sight operation of touch input devices, such as a touch pad and/or a keyboard, may be activated.

An information handling system includes a tablet computer and a base. The tablet computer includes a first plurality of closing magnets, first and second holding magnets, and a rounded edge. The base includes a hinge area, a second plurality of closing magnets, and third and fourth holding magnets located a bottom portion of the hinge area. The hinge area receives the tablet computer when the tablet computer is rotated from a closed position to an opened position, and holds the tablet computer in the opened position. The second closing magnets align with the first closing magnets, align the tablet computer on the base, and hold the tablet computer in the closed position. The third and fourth holding magnets attract the first and second holding magnets to ensure an alignment of the tablet computer within the base when the tablet computer is rotated from the closed position to the opened position.

A convertible information handling system transitions to tablet and tablet stand configurations having a keyboard with a friction enhanced surface disposed against a support surface, the keyboard resisting movement of the information handling system relative to the support surface. For example, the keyboard has a rubberized plastic outer surface on non-moving keys to effectively increase the surface area of the keyboard in contact with the support surface. In one embodiment, the friction enhanced surface has its friction characteristics increased when proximate a support surface and decreased when distal a support surface.
