Can the screen of this model go all the way back (so it's level with the keyboard), or is that only for the touchscreen "Plus" model?

This is the PLUS touchscreen model. And, yes, the screen goes all the way back. EDIT: Sorry, I did not notice that this is NOT the PLUS. Please disregard.

It does NOT go level with the keyboard, about 45 degrees or half way to flat.

It does not go all the back. It tilts almost flush to flat with keyboard, but does not fold back to the keyboard.

I am sorry but you are asking the wrong person! My husband bought this for me in July and it's been returned twice since. I'm waiting for it to come back now. :( The touchscreen stopped working both times.

The vinyl frame around the screen will usually prevent the keyboard from touching the screen. The keyboard will flex a bit, so if you pushed hard in the middle you could get the keys to touch the screen.

I have not had any problems with that. Soft keys and are a hair above the screen when closed. You will like it I sure do.

Sorry I didn't see this earlier. The keyboard is the same size as the screen just a little thinner. You can close it against the screen like a laptop. I bought two for my kids in Feb and they have had no issues with them. Hope that helps.

I don't think the screen actually touches the keyboard. There is a frame around the keyboard and when you put the iPad into the case, the screen is touching this frame but not the keys themselves.And, no, I haven't noticed any damage of any kind to the screen.

Can you just turn it around so the curve is in the same place as your keyboard curve? Can anyone try that and let me know how it works?

Yes it overides the normal keyboard so you don't get the screen reduced in size.

The screen doesn't tip over. It works like a regular laptop or there is a button that releases the screen from the bottom and then it makes a tablet. You can turn it either way, long or short after you remove it from the keyboard part of the lap top. One nice thing about it is it can be a touchscreen anytime.

It is not a touch screen. You wouldn't want a laptop to be anyway. If buying a touch screen, buy a tablet or a swivel laptop that can put the keyboard behind the screen. Good luck

The keyboard holds it slightly tilted back unless you use something (like a silicone hold strip) to hold it forward.

Janet, I get the benefit of both the touch screen element, as well as using the keyboard. Just had my new one installed yesterday, by the Geek Squad. Nicely done!Enjoy both devices.

The tablet does not come apart from the keyboard. It flips and you close the laptop. The screen is now on the outside.

Just the screen side, the back is still fair game. Might try a clear cover for the back. Besides that, the keyboard works great!

This model does not have a back lit keyboard. But you can use the touch screen's keyboard which is lit.

No, this one is not touch screen. There are other similar models that are, but not this (and honestly I could not find any with this configuration that is also touch)

Hi Jennifer. Sorry for to respond too late. The screen is not touch screen but have very good resolution in HD (1080p). This laptop come with Windows 8 preinstalled, which you can set for to use with keyboard touch in the screen... It is unfortunate that the touch keyboard can not be used in this laptop. =( . You can think in TOSHIBA C55t-A5287 15.6", this laptop have touch screen.
