Tablets are a common occurrence now, so what does Hollywood do but improve on the props and special effects of the past. Now it's about transparent displays.
The Expanse has its Hand Terminals.

I know a lot of these props have a cinematic motive than practical use. My guess is those transparent screen's primary purpose is for the actor just to be seen even while they are working.
Keep in mind I consider the hologram a little different because they serve a purpose besides reading.

But what if? Consider that some people have credited Star Trek with calling out the tablet years before it has been invented, will the latest incarnation of cinematic computer displays be real one day.
Can people really work at length on a gadget that their sight can pass through?
