There is currently no widely used name for this class of device because it’s among the first of its kind — a truly portable computer that can connect to nearly any screen around you and instantly transform it into a desktop PC. Perhaps we can think of it as the ultrabook of desktop computing. But don’t expect it to handle your high-end chores such as graphics intensive games. You should be able to do web browsing, play casual games, and watch full-HD video files without a lag, however.
