Abstract: Particular embodiments described herein provide for an electronic device that can be configured to include a first housing, a second housing, a hinge that rotatably couples the first housing to the second housing, and a flexible heat spreader that extends from the second housing, through the hinge, and to the first housing. The hinge can accommodate deformations in the flexible heat spreader when the first housing is rotated relative to the second housing.

Abstract: A convertible mobile compute device comprises a lid, a base, and a hinge assembly coupled to the lid and the base. The hinge assembly includes a lid hinge bracket secured to the lid and configured to rotate about a lid hinge axis. The hinge assembly also includes a base hinge bracket secured to the base and configured to rotate about a base hinge axis. The lid hinge axis is offset from a centerline axis defined by the lid, and the base hinge axis is offset from a centerline axis defined by the base. As described herein, the offsetting of the hinge axes provides for a smaller a lid-to-base gap when the convertible mobile compute device is positioned in a closed mode relative to when the convertible mobile compute device is positioned in a tablet mode.
