Medion Akoya E2215T
The Medion Akoya E2215T is a 11.6-inch 2-in-1 convertible. It is adequately compact to be a tablet whilst having enough performance to fulfil the criteria of a subnotebook. From its appearance, it is obvious that the Akoya is largely made of plastic. The top and bottom of the device is silver in color. Its interior on the other hand is black in color. With the 360-degree hinge system, the device can be transformed into multiple forms (i.e. tablet, tent or notebook modes) according to the preference of users. However, the touchscreen capability is only available in tablet mode. Weighing at 1.1 kg, this convertible is an ideal device to be carried about. It is also lighter than its rivals such as the HP Pavilion 11 and the Asus Transformer Book Flip. It is powered by the Intel Atom x5-Z8350 processor with 1.44 GHz clock frequency. With these specs, it is perfect for surfing the web or watching videos. It may not be appropriate for running intensive software, yet it is generally suitable for reading and editing MS Office documents. To conform to its slim factor, the choice of connectivity appears minimal as it is integrated with a mini HDMI jack and a MicroSD slot. The built in storage is relatively limited at 32 GB. However, you can expand the storage capacity with a microSD card (up to 256 GB). There are also 2 USB ports for added connectivity. The keyboard attached to the convertible is somewhat cramped. This comes to no surprise considering its compact form. Extended typing may require an external keyboard as the compact keyboard is not comfortable enough. Nevertheless, it comes with a clickpad, which is spacious and sensitive enough for proper usage. The 11.6-inch display has a Full HD resolution (1920 x 1080 pixels at 190 PPI) as well as IPS technology. Thus, the display can be viewed from various angles with clarity. Usage outdoors is reasonable provided that the sun is not too bright. Wireless connectivity includes both Wifi and Bluetooth. Overall, this is a solid device for those who do not need high requirements. It is also good value for money as it functions well as a tablet and a notebook. Students will find the Akoya appealing as it is lightweight and powerful enough for presentations and word processing. Furthermore, it is ideal for performing everyday tasks such as web surfing and video streaming. Nevertheless, those who require performance for more demanding tasks should opt for higher end laptops.

The Medion Akoya E3216 notebook, also known as Aldi Convertible is a convertible that offers a very good price-performance ratio. It is manufactured by Medion, which is a German consumer electronics company. The convertible measures at 19.9 x 315 x 215 mm and weighs 1.5 kg. This weight is typical for convertibles. The case workmanship is on a good level even if the display hinge is not always locked properly, which is a problem which can also occur with other convertibles, and other manufacturers. The 13.3-inch Full HD display of this notebook hybrid is the shining highlight that is second to none in its class. With a maximum brightness of 308 cd/m² and a good checkerboard contrast of 196:1, it is a decent display that can deliver bright and vivid display.

As for graphics, it has an Intel HD Graphics 505, which is an integrated low-end graphics adapter with DirectX 12 support which can be found in some ULV SoCs of the Apollo Lake series.

Medion Akoya E4253-30024991
Medion has been an electronics brand which has smoothly sailed through the arduous passage of time and somehow maintained its seemingly unwavering spot for being among one of the few available choices in the marketing industry – albeit the figure does not exactly rival top tier brands of the world – when decision-making in purchasing a laptop is weighed on a scaled expenditure. While retaining a keen eye for variety, the Medion Akoya E4253 comes off as inexpensive and presents itself as a rather attractive option for those satisfied with just having a decent and undemanding laptop in their possession. The Medion Akoya E4253 has a screen size of 14 inch. This is considered rather large among the three categories of display size used for subnotebooks, ultrabooks, as well as convertibles. It has an aspect ratio of 16:9, which is not entirely bad, as well as a standard screen resolution of 1,920 x 1,080 pixels. The display screen is matted and not glossy even the slightest, which is something very much appreciated due to potential reflection of light sources coming from the background of a brightly lit environment. The Medion Akoya E4253 is operated by processing units hailing from the Gemini Lake platform, namely, the Intel Pentium Silver N5000 with integrated Intel UHD Graphics 605. The Intel Pentium Silver N5000 is a quad-core processor, which can be primarily found in a vast range of affordable, inexpensive laptop models. The Intel Pentium Silver N5000 is slightly revised and performs inherently better than older processors up to a clocked speed of 200 MHz. However, as attractive as the name sounds, it’s not exactly up to par with processors that can be found in recent releases since the origin of the Intel Pentium Silver N5000 dates way back to the 2017. It is a processor merely adequate enough to sustain regular workload and casual web browsing. The Intel UHD Graphics 605, which apparently comes as a pair alongside the Intel Pentium Silver N5000, shows very little promise when it comes to performance. This graphics unit is barely sufficient for modern Triple A (AAA) games and the lack of dedicated graphics memory only worsens matters at hand. The lack of a dedicated graphics memory creates a compulsory dependency to access the main memory via processor, which can extend loading times and dampens the duration needed to boot up all the programs that are installed in the Medion Akoya E4253. Users will experience evident burden and misery when attempting to run modern games on the Medion Akoya E4253 even at the lowest possible in-game configurations. Needless to say, this laptop model is better suited for less demanding tasks. Hands-on article by Jagadisa RajarathnamSpecifications

Comment
Medion: Medion AG is a German consumer electronics company. It operates in Europe, the United States, and the Asia-Pacific region. The main products are computers, TVs, refrigerators, toasters, and fitness equipment. The manufacturer of laptops Medion mainly is active in the German market, but to smaller extent also in Western Europe. Market shares and amount of reviews are low. Above all, supermarkets like Aldi sell their laptops. In 2011, Medion has been acquired by the laptop manufacturer Lenovo.

6157U: Skylake-based dual-core processor for notebooks and ultrabooks. Offers an integrated Iris Graphics 550 GPU with eDRAM memory and is manufactured in 14 nm. Clocks at 2.4 Ghz without Turbo Boost.
Intel Atom x5:
Z8350: Soc with an integrated quad core Atom processor clocked at 1.44 - 1.92 GHz, an Intel HD Graphics GPU and a dual channel LPDDR3-1600 memory controller.
Z8300: Soc with an integrated quad core Atom processor clocked at 1.44 - 1.84 GHz, an Intel HD Graphics GPU and a dual channel LPDDR3-1600 memory controller.
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).
Z3735F: SoC with an integrated quad-core Atom processor clocked up to 1.83 GHz, an Intel HD Graphics GPU and a single channel DDR3L-RS-1333 memory controller.

0.317 kg:
This weight is somewhat high for a smartphone. Smartphones with a big screen and small tablets weigh as much, usually.
2.8 kg:
This weight is representative for typical laptops with a 14-16 inch display-diagonal.
77.21%: This rating is not convincing. The laptop is evaluated below average, this is not really a recommendation for purchase.
