Unfortunately, it just looks like a tablet OS, it doesn't behave as such.

I've tried to make it work dozens times, and while I can navigate across the opened windows and start a new one (just don't try it with Dash to Dock), I simply get stuck somewhere. The virtual keyboard doesn't show up, or the virtual keyboard does show up but it doesn't detect key presses.

And it's not intuitive. Let's say that I want to open the application launcher and start an app that isn't in my favorites. I can't scroll over the icons because that selects and moves the icons. I have to scroll on the side, where no icons are present. And even then, I can't make a small touch gesture. I have to scroll through all the vertical space on my touchscreen to get to the next grid of apps.

I can't use my 2 in 1 in a tablet mode for anything more complicated than the simplest tasks (like reading PDFs in Evince, which works wonderfully).
