Article: The laptop's height is measured with a closed screen. If your laptop slopes when closed, measure the thickest part. Laptops aren't usually taller than two inches. If you need to know the height in centimeters but only have the inches measurement, multiply the inches by 2.54 to find the measurement in centimeters. For example, a 1.5 inch tall laptop is 3.8 centimeters (1.5 x 2.54 = 3.81).
