Reviews for the Asus Transformer Book T100-DK002H

100% Asus Transformer Book T100 review
Source: PC Mag English Archive.org version
While Microsoft is still trying to convince everyone that Windows RT devices are the spiritual successor to the netbook, Intel has made its feelings clear – ARM isn’t welcome to a piece of the Windows action. The new Atom platform delivers a dramatic performance increase, enough power for casual gaming and the same great battery life, all at a price point that’s allowed Asus to sell the Transformer Book T100 for only £349. In our opinion, this is the death knell for Windows RT. As for the Transformer Book T100 itself, it’s everything you could ask from a compact, go-anywhere hybrid, and it’s ludicrously affordable. Snap one up while you can – we predict these will sell out fast.

Granted, it is now possible to pick the T100 up for around £280, which makes it sound like even more of a bargain, but we'd exercise caution before reaching for the credit card: it's got some serious competition on its hands from the increasing number of low-cost Windows 8.1 tablets hitting the market. And when we say low-cost, we're not kidding: it's now possible to buy a competent Windows tablet for under £100. Not completely convinced? Well, the bundled year's subcription to Office 365 Personal and 1TB of Onedrive cloud storage just might tip you over the edge.

In our last Transformer review we said its design was getting a bit musty. However, that was an Android tablet. And a low-cost hybrid like this is just what the Windows 8 tablet market needs. The Asus Transformer Book T100 feels like a necessary maturing of the budget Windows tablet. It’s practical, pretty powerful, has a half-decent screen and its flexible design mitigates the lack of games and apps designed for Windows tablets – compared to Android and iOS tablets.

80% Asus Transformer Book T100T review - Windows 8 tablet & laptop offers great portability at great price
Source: Tech Advisor English Archive.org version
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 more updated netbook than desirable gadget, students, school children, home PC users and office road warriors could easily spend more and get less.

Comment

Intel HD Graphics (Ivy Bridge): In the mobile Ivy Bridge Celeron and Pentium CPUs integrated processor graphics card. The HD Graphics is the slower, GT1 called, part with less execution units (EUs) and only one texture sampler - compared to the GT2 HD Graphics 4000.

Only some 3D games with very low demands are playable with these cards.

» Further information can be found in our Comparison of Mobile Graphics Cards and the corresponding Benchmark List.


Intel Atom: The Intel Atom series is a 64-Bit (not every model supports 64bit) microprocessor for cheap and small notebooks (so called netbooks), MIDs, or UMPCs. The speciality of the new architecture is the "in order" execution (instead of the usual and faster "out of order" execution). Therefore, the transistor count of the Atom series is much lower and, thus, cheaper to produce. Furthermore, the power consumption is very low. The performance per Megahertz is therfore worse than the old Pentium 3M (1,2 GHz on par with a 1.6 GHz Atom).


Z3740: Soc with an integrated quad core Atom processor clocked at up to 1.86 GHz (Turbo), an Intel HD Graphics GPU and a dual channel LPDDR3-1067 memory controller.» Further information can be found in our Comparison of Mobile Processsors.

This is a standard display format for tablet computers or small convertibles. You see more on the screen than on a smartphone but you can't use big resolutions well. On the other hand, mobility is not a problem.

Asus: ASUSTeK Computer Inc. is a major Taiwanese computer hardware manufacturer based in Taipei, founded in 1989. Under the Asus brand name, the company manufactures a wide range of products, including laptops, desktops, motherboards, graphics cards, monitors, smartphones and networking equipment, complete systems and PC components for end users.

Under the ROG (Republic of Gamers) brand name, ASUS manufactures gaming laptops known by gamers for their powerful specifications, dedicated graphics cards, high refresh rate displays and advanced cooling systems.

Beyond gaming, a wide range of notebooks are offered for different needs and budgets, from ultra-slim and lightweight ultrabooks to versatile 2-in-1 convertibles and budget-friendly options. In 2023, Asus had a 7% global market share of the PC market.

Customer satisfaction with ASUS notebooks concerns performance, the features, and the good price-performance ratio of ASUS notebooks. However, as with any brand, there are occasional reports of problems such as overheating, driver compatibility, or build quality issues.


77%: This rating is not earth-shattering. This rating must actually be seen as average, since there are about as many devices with worse ratings as better ones. A purchase recommendation can only be seen with a lot of goodwill, unless it is about websites that generally rate strictly.
