Customer Review

After I tested the notebook approximately 1.5 weeks in detail I had to unfortunately give back returns.
Why? Because the headphone output produces a loud static noise is particularly troublesome when there is no loud music or the like is played about (older colleagues may remember the problem with PCI video cards and AC97 sound onboard computers in the late 90s).
Whether this is a software or hardware problem, I could not figure out, but do not have others (Realtek) drivers have a clean installation of Windows 8 can solve the problem (alternative OS unfortunately I could not test for lack of driver support).

Depend on you get a fairly good processing with cutting-edge, fanless Intel Core M technology. This is of course slower than a Core i CPU but it also much more economical. The Turbo function of the core M jumps on a regular basis and clocked up the computer and by latest 60s back down because the cores are too warm. On average, the CPU runs between 1 and 1.2Ghz.
People are therefore likely to be happy with the device put emphasis on a very thin and soft convertible notebook, similar technology can be found otherwise only in much higher priced regions.
The touch screen works well, but has proven in my usage behavior that he is not really more than a nice gimmick: as soon as I start the Web browser or a game I do not want to do without the hardware keyboard and the apparatus was in tablet mode rather rare.

Personally, I'm going now out looking for a sleek and less for perfomanteres device, even when I have to live with a fan and non-touch screen (but at least then, for example, fits even an Ethernet port into the housing).
