The editors didn't like
No 5GHz Wi-Fi
An unfortunate oversight for a device this expensive
Ivy Bridge
While still an able performer
Is weeks away from being replaced by Haswell
Speakers distort a bit at high volumes
Lots of fan noise under load
High starting price and no
Fan spins up quite loudly under moderate-to-heavy load
Starting price is high
Though it's reasonably competitive given its specs
Toshiba used mSATA instead of M.2 SATA leading to a slower read/write speeds
PWM across all brightness levels (0-99%)
Too noisy fan
No DisplayPort
Flimsy lid
Disappointing contrast in the display
Wi-Fi adapter doesn't support 5GHz networks
No 802.11ac or 5GHz Wi-Fi. Small bezel makes some touch gestures inconvenient. May have to adjust zoom or screen resolution for apps. Integrated graphics
Higher-res screens are more common now
And available for less. The generic brushed-metal look isn't particularly distinctive given the price
Expensive
Sharp front corners
No Retina-ready apps
Lackluster webcam
Max refresh rate of 30Hz with external 4K monitor
Default "eco" power plan suppresses performance
Relatively dim display
Shallow
Uncomfortable keyboard
Pricey
Text and icons can be tiny
Noisy fan
May have to adjust zoom or screen resolution for apps
Display suffers from scaling issues
Extremely hot and loud at load
Not a good value
Touchscreen could be brighter. Fan could be quieter. Ultraflat keys not overly friendly for touch typing. Ungodly costly
Too much of Windows isn't designed for high-res displays
Máy mỏng nhẹ, sang trọng. Màn hình độ phân giải cao, hiển thị sắc nét. Nâng cấp về cấu hình, nhất là pin đủ đáp ứng cho nhu cầu sử dụng máy cả ngày.
Thiết kế đơn giản so với giá bán. Không được trang bị màn hình cảm ứng để hỗ trợ tốt hơn cho Windows 8
Kirabook 2014 đã được nâng cấp nhiều về cấu hình, thêm lựa chọn màn hình cảm ứng, tối ưu thời gian hoạt động tuy nhiên với mức giá giao động từ 1599 - 1999 Đô la thì người dùng có lẽ sẽ phải đắn đo nhiều. Ở mức giá này có khá nhiều mẫu ultrabook khác để l...
