The editors didn't like
Useless Caps Lock key
Doesn't take full advantage of high-res display

And it is astonishingly easy to press. In fact
It's in the exact location your index finger probably goes when you lift an open laptop. It's very a
Keyboard layout puts important keys in unexpected places
Drive space is limited (though extremely fast)
Keyboard still uses an odd layout that seems unnecessary given the unused space in the palmrest
Tweaky trackpad
Not much of a performance upgrade over last year's model
Though it's still plenty fast for most general computing tasks
Shorter battery life than previous version
Underside runs hot
Tinny audio
The touch pad and keyboard still don't rate for a $1

And other high-end ultrabooks cost less
Hidden power button
A few undersized keys
Not the fastest SSD
Expensive
A six-row keyboard would have been better
Screen not the brightest
Dongles for extra video or LAN connectivity not included
No Thunderbolt
Sensitive touchpad. Odd keyboard layout. No included Ethernet or VGA dongle.Some bloatware
Odd keyboard layout. Could use a larger SSD array. Thinness is expensive

Looks good and feels good overall, Long battery life, Very good screen
Keyboard could be better, Touchpad clicked whenever we picked up the unit, Power button location, No accelerometer
