run on AC power (and bypass the battery when plugged in) and
switch to the battery only when unplugged.
The majority claim that many devices can do this, however the discussion hasn't produced complete agreement yet.
The debates seem to be concerned with extreme scenarios.

I have run Android tablets until they have alerted me that the battery was too low and shut themselves down. When I plugged them in to charge I was able to turn them back on (while charging) and use them (while charging). It doesn't really bypass the battery, which is still charging, but I can use them.

I hope this is what you were asking about.
