Our friends have finally got their hands on the new ASUS Transformer Book T300FA but since their blog is in Italian we thought of translating it. The ASUS Transformer Book T300FA is a 2-in-1 laptop that comes with new 4.5w Intel Core M-5Y10 processor that runs very cool even in a fan less computer.

Asus Transformer Book T300FA Review

The Asus T300FA has 12.5 inch display, thickness of 9.9mm and weight of 800 grams. If you attach the optional keyboard, it still weighs a very modest 1.6 kilograms.

The display has touch sensitive panel with HD resolution which has started to feel outdated even on cheap laptops including this one. The entire chassis is made of polycarbonate but it does not feel flimsy in any manner.

The tablet part comes with a micro USB port, HDMI output and a slot for micro SD card slot as well. If you attach the keyboard you gain 2x USB ports out of which one is v3.0

The Asus Transformer Book T300FA specifications include Intel Core M-5Y10 processor, 4 gigabytes of RAM, 32 / 64 GB flash storage, 500GB / 1 TB of hard disk storage (present in keyboard dock) – all this for a 599 euro price tag.

Concrete release date is not yet specified but we expect it to hit the market shelves by the end of this year.

Asus is all set to launch its new mini PC in the month of November that features an Intel Haswell processor but what really caught our eye is the price tag of Asus Vivo Mini – just 149 dollars.

Sine Asus will be marketing it as barebone PC you will be able to Windows, Linux or hackintosh on it. And of course the downside of buying a bare bone PC is that you will have buy / torr*nt operating system for it along with memory, storage (HDD / SSD) and even wireless card.

Coming to its processor choice, you get the choose between the Intel Celeron 2957U haswell, i3 or i5. If you choose either of the last two, you will have to shell out more. Other Asus Vivo Mini specifications include 4x USB 3.0 ports, display port, HDMI, Ethernet, full + half size PCIe card slot, m SATA connector and support for up to 16GB RAM and 2x SODIMM slots.

The Vivo Mini measures 4.9″ x 4.9″ x 1.7″ and features a VESA mount-compatible design that lets you mount it to the back of monitor or TV.

There are so much more great options out there for bare bone PC’s, such as Zotac’s Nano CI320 bare bone for $130. And you can even get the variation with a 64GB SSD, Windows 8.1. preinstalled, and 802.11ac for $230. What I’m trying to say is, this Asus box is pretty worthless for what it is.
