Abstract: When Bill Gates was hatching the plan to take over all our computers with a single operating system, he perhaps had thought Windows will go places tagging along with the PC; hopping out of the desk; climbing on to our laps; sitting plump in our palms; and...

Decent design, IPS screen offers good viewing angles and resolution, Well built, Comes with good stylus and keyboard cover, Completely silent liquid cooling, Fair connectivity for its class, Excellent value compared to rival products
IPS display is somewhat sub-par compared to rivals, Sharp edges when kickstand is extended, Speakers are tinny and distort at maximum volume, A little on the weighty side for its spec, Battery life only average, Stylus loop may slightly destabilize keyboa

strongly built, classy looks, good screen with digitizer and pen support, fast performance for a Core M implementation, runs cool, fanless, decent speakers and battery life, fair price
heavy as a tablet, akward as a laptop, both due to its formfactor, limited IO, annoying keyboard layout and trackpoint, slow WiFi in certain conditions
The Acer Aspire Switch 12 is a sturdy built 2-in-1, a fast and efficient implementation of Intel's Core M hardware bundled with a good digitizer-enabled screen. Its form factor could be a deal-breaker for many though, as it leads to a lacking experience b...

Abstract: The Acer Aspire Switch family continues to grow, with the forthcoming Switch 12 showcasing not only a number of varied position options, but it's one of the first devices to feature Intel Core M technology. That means a fanless design, which in turn opens...

You can play with 3D objects, pretty comfy, OK performance, good audio, solid 3D camera, Thunderbolt port, no lag, nice design, comfy keyboard, And the
pricey, power button bug (sometimes it doesn't wake up the tablet), battery life could be better, the edges chip easily, not exactly gaming friendly, could be brighter
