Customer Review

It might actually be a good device, suber cabinetry, light & thin, beautiful feel.

But:

- Really bad display, reflects far too strong, the display is not fully used (black borders)

- The AMD Apu produces too much heat, thereby cooling fan running continuously, and much too loud even at low load.

- Dedicated (outdated) GPU totally unsuitable for such a thin device, allowing for increased fan noise, graphics performance worth nothing to speak, would also be possible with Intel HD 4400/4600.

Unfortunately, the Convertible concept not like the Lenovo Yoga has been fully implemented.
