The editors didn't like
You are getting a year-old SoC
It might be just a bit too thin for single-handed usage
Your refresh rate is limited to 60Hz in a world driving towards fast displays
Buggy software and unreliable fingerprint sensor in testing
The keyboard is not included
And it's expensive and takes time to adjust to its small keys. In the tablet/laptop hybrid wars
There's little clamor for an Android model
Especially in light of Android app support on Chromebooks
The cover is attached with an adhesive
Expensive

No headphone jack
Cramped keyboard
Battery life could be better
Requires separate keyboard for most convenience
The price tag
In-screen fingerprint sensor
No way to keep the S Pen in place without an accessory
No wireless charging this Android tablet
Camera falls short on clarity
Zoom
Color accuracy
Night mode is respectable but not brilliant
No 3.5mm audio jack
No headphones included
Still plenty of bloatware
Widescreen aspect ratio sucks for productivity
Optional keyboard case is unstable on a lap
In-screen fingerprint scanner is slow and unreliable
DeX software features feel half-baked and are frustrating to use

Cheap feeling stylus, No headphone jack, OK camera

Fabulously slim and light, S Pen stylus included, Great battery life
