    I wanted a little laptop to bring with me while travelling and it fits the bill perfectly. I also wanted Windows so I could put some of my desktop stuff on it. It works nicely. A little bigger for a tablet than I need, but does the job.

    Love this tablet. Easy to set up and use. The pen is great and makes tasks easier. The only thing i would change is that you have to use stand to hold it upright, I wish it stood up by itself. But I still love it.

    Love the ASUS transformer notebooks; went with mini this time; Use for internet gaming and works fine. Gave 3 stars because after 2 uses, DC power port inside bent, so can't charge my computer. Took to store where purchased and they wouldn't cover fixing because it was physical damage and I would need to send into ASUS directly. Have had previous ASUS product for 5 years and never a problem.

    I absolutely love my Transformer I'm very satisfied with the purchase. I use a lot for work. The stylus keeps up with my handwriting. The feature of writing to text is a great asset for me. I like the Slender look and flexibility of tablet or mini laptop.

    Does everything I need it to do. Has just enough ram to switch quickly between apps, which is a plus because it runs on Windows. Isn't built for heavy duty projects but it will get the job done as a 2 in 1.

    I bought this as an alternative to the much more expensive Microsoft surface. I have owned a number of ASUS notebook PCs and have loved every one of these. I am still hoping to love this one, but it is difficult. The pros: very light & compact, touch screen, bundled with keyboard. The cons: frequent pop-up asking whether to end tablet mode, and I have to separate & reconnect the keyboard multiple times to get the keyboard to respond. battery life is shorter than I had hoped but I haven't had a full day in the field with it yet to see how long it lasts. ALl in all, given the low price ($399) and my prior positives with ASUS (which are my favorite devices) I will keep trying to love it (before I throw it against the wall in frustration). I cannot recommend it to a friend yet, but might change my mind after more use

    This is a great little computer if you want to work or write on the go. As a tablet, this thing is awesome. It was hard for me to get used to the small keyboard, so I didn't end up enjoying writing on it. For the price it is a good machine, but the size was my issue.

    This tablet is nothing special. Basic notetaking, web browsing, and streaming are about as far as its capabilities go. That being said, I do really like OneNote and the functionality the pen offer.s

    I couldn't decide between a nice tablet or get a full blown laptop. This one is not too big to be a tablet (any bigger is too bi for a tablet imho) and is a powerful full blown windows 10 laptop. perfect.

    What it says on the tin

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I've not been disappointed by anything this device promised. The battery life is sound, the screen resolution is sharp, and the price is more affordable than most comparable devices on the market. I've had some issues, so I'm going to address them below: -Sound: Sometimes, if you start a song or video on iTunes/Spotify/VLC/YouTube or another media player too quickly, the song or video stalls and restarting the program will not allow the song to play, or any other song for that matter. Depending on the day, changing programs can sometimes solve this problem, but I wouldn't rely on this computer for study tunes or movies. Also, whenever I detach the screen from the keyboard sound capability cuts out and reattaching doesn't bring it back- movies, songs and videos no longer have sound until you restart the device. I haven't found a way to fix this. -Keyboard: The keyboard is a little slow, and not as sensitive as others I've used- I've found that I have to focus more intently to prevent typos, as it takes a couple taps to get the space bar to register as a typed or various letters just will not appear. Also, if you're used to a larger keyboard, seriously consider that this keyboard is about the size of a book. It's small, and if you have big or moderately sized hands, you might struggle. - Internet: This is the easiest to solve. Sometimes, when I turn this computer on it says it's not connected to the internet. Just click the internet icon in the corner, hit "Network and Internet Settings", and when the settings window opens, click the troubleshooting button. It'll fix itself and connect to the internet. -Turning on: If you open it and hit the power button and it doesn't turn on, just shows you the battery icon, do the opposite of what you just did to the power button- if you held it down, press it once, and if you pressed it once, hold it down. It'll start up. If neither of those work, close it, wait a minute, and try again. I don't use the fingerprint function, so I can't comment on that, but I like the pen function and most of the other functions on this device. I use it for school and for that it's a good purchase, I recommend it.
