While a few unhelpful quirks cropped up when configuring the Asus Transformer Book T100, none of these issues actually stopped me from getting on and using it. And use it you will, as its size, weight and price make carrying it around an easy habit to ge...

Decent screen, good battery life, low price
Chunky, touchpad could be more sensitive
Yes, you can get Microsoft's Surface 2 for a tenner more, but that model only runs the limited RT version of Windows 8.1 and you'll still need to shell out another £100 for the accompanying keyboard. The T100 may not be the best looking hybrid out there...

Good price, Full copy of Office included
Poor keyboard, Terrible trackpad, The battery is questionable
A Windows tablet, running the full x86 version of Windows 8.1, for just £350 is a bargain. And it comes with a full version of Office 2013 too. However, the keyboard quality is poor, the trackpad “clicking” is embarrassing and I have serious issues with t...
This is not an iPad killer, or even a rival to the Surface Pro 2. But at £349 it is a compelling deal. The Asus Transformer Book T100T is a compact device that offers true functionality and decent performance. And it is a truly portable office PC. Much mo...
Impressive value; Great battery life; Keyboard dock
Compact keyboard with dinky touchpad; Screen could be brighter; Tablet is hefty
Asus’ Transformer tablet-cum-laptop devices tend to cost closer to the five hundred pound mark, so snapping one up for £349 with full Windows 8 is a bit of a bobby dazzler. Factor in the bundled copy of Office, plus the excellent battery life, and you can...

Most affordable Windows 8 device we've seen, better screen brightness and viewing angles than most Chromebooks, full Windows 8.1 & MS Office (Home & Student) for the price, great battery life, the death knell for Windows RT
Needs a better trackpad, on-board power isn't going to blow you away, plasticky build, so slow to charge up, keyboard is squeezed, auto colour and brightness adjustment a bit annoying, not Full HD or greater
We're really impressed with the Asus Transformer Book T100. Its 10.1-inch scale works well as either a tablet or a laptop, even if the keyboard does feel a little squeezed up on initial use. It's something that we got over, though, and given how res...
For a convertible tablet of just Rs.30000 or $299, the Asus Transformer Book T100T is a perfect option especially because of the keyboard. The notebook as a whole has everything with a well equipped keyboard and powerful CPU. The notebook or tablet offers...

The fact that Asus Transformer book T100t runs the same operating system that you see on your desktop, the same icons; menus and management system is just exciting. You suddenly feel you can do much more than just surf the web, play games or watch movies....
Abstract: The last time Asus attempted a Laptop/Tablet hybrid we came back with mixed impressions. With a 13.3-inch screen and 1.9 Kg heft, the TX300 was no chameleon that could change colours from a laptop to a tablet with ease. We have seen a flurry of devices (t...
