Occasion of purchase was that I unfortunately can've covered my old notebook and the hard disk was damaged. However, as I quickly needed a new, portable device for the university, I slammed.
Personally, I must say, for the price of that time still just over 400 (with larger hard drive) I was very happy at first. Generally you have to say, you get two devices; small notebook and tablet for the price of a unit with good facilities.
The processing of the device can in my view, something to be desired. The touchpad makes each time you click a really cheap plastic sound, the angle at which the screen can be a maximum of opening, just over 90 ° so that the views of the device with keyboard from above, for example, is made more difficult by a table partially, This is accomplished by partially highly reflective display - also increasingly strong lubricating susceptibility even further - when using the touch screen.
I also had other quality issues, such as the charging socket. This had become shaky few weeks after the first use, so that the charging cable had game and in decreasing positions at all invited. In addition, Windows began to experience problems. So I unfortunately had to return the device.
Shortly before I let my old notebook (now 4 year old and at that time also a more effective device for about 600) repair again and came back as the Transformer Book, only landed my old notebook in the closet - and after a few days the exchange was completed and the "new" Transformer Book is now unused there.
I personally do not think the Transformer Book unsatisfactory, even for this price.
For more than 400 obtained today very good notebook, unless one thinks to have to play the latest games with it. These are not available as a tablet, but I have to say - this is a nice gimmick and I thought I would use often, but I did until today hardly. Even if one is on the couch, I prefer now again the weight of my 13 "notebook on my lap instead of holding the tablet in one hand and tapping the screen with the other.
Long texts for university or work you can hardly touch my opinion, with the device, as you can hardly work longer on this unit due to the small keyboard, the creaking touchpad and poor insight angle without having to constantly perform write corrections or an unhealthy attitude take.
Personally, I've decided if I want a tablet I use the smaller smartphone which has anyway always there when I want a notebook that I use my 13 "it with a pleasant keyboard size, a variable screen angle, a faster processing ( Despite 4 years ...) and in my opinion, more sophisticated and more pleasant has Windows 7. The each other needs and some may actually consciously often want to use a tablet, I can understand. Because of the lack of quality I personally would then still more likely guessing yourself to create a tidy working / or gaming notebook and is either still a "small" tablet, where also very cheap models the most necessary - ie Internet, a little writing program and Apps - master or a smartphone with a large enough screen size if necessary the benefits of a smartphone with the lure of a low cost tablets and acquire equipment minimizing number.
