Advanced Micro Devices (AMD) showed off a tablet-laptop hybrid loaded with the company's latest Trinity chip at the AMD press conference.

The hybrid device features a detachable touchscreen that can be undocked from the laptop anytime to be used as a tablet. "This is a new form factor that AMD is targeting with the Trinity chips" Lisa Su, senior vice president of AMD said this at the company's press briefing at Computex. This 11-inch tablet is actually a prototype made by Compal that is packed with AMD's A-series Trinity chip.

Trinity chips were announced in May by AMD and are designed to create ultra slim laptops that might start at $599. It can be a big challenge for Intel as most of their chip-based ultrabooks start at $750.

Some more tablet-laptop hybrids manufactured by Asus and Acer made an appearance at the Computex event in Taiwan. These tablets also feature detachable touchscreen and is based on Intel's latest Ivy Bridge Core processors. No PC manufacturer has announced any AMD's Trinity chips based tablet-laptop hybrid so far. But AMD has a great price advantage as their chips are available for less price comparing to Intel. Moreover, according to a company spokesman, AMD's on chip graphics performance is far better than the one user will get on Ivy Bridge.

Users can expect to get more than 10 hours of battery life when using Trinity chip-based laptop. This latest chip invented by AMD offers 50 percent faster graphics core and 25 percent faster preview than its predecessor. AMD also introduced the new E-series chips at Computex on Wednesday. These chips are specially designed for low-power laptops and can provide users longer battery life. Big PC manufacturers like Samsung, Asus, Toshiba, and Acer have all showed interest in launching devices with E-series chips.
