Do any of these Windows devices appeal to you ? Or do you prefer looking for a device running a different platform like iOS or Android? Leave us a comment below and let us know

The Asus Transformer Book Trio is an interesting device, bringing the best of two worlds into one neat powerful package. This all-in-one device features three different mode - a tablet mode for portability, a laptop mode for productivity and a docked PC Station mode for creativity. You even get the added benefit of being able to switch between Android and Windows 8

Unfortunately it does have its share of issues. For example, even though the device is capable of running the full Windows 8 experience, we have Microsoft's platform installed on the keyboard dock, and not the tablet. This means that you will have to connect your tablet to the keyboard dock in order to run Windows 8. On the plus side you can quickly switch between Android and Windows 8 while the device is docked. Additionally you can also connect your keyboard to a monitor or an HDTV via HDMI and use it independently from the tablet.

While Asus does include the keyboard with the purchase of this device, it sums up to around $1500, which despite its usefulness, can be somewhat pricey for a  majority of users. Especially since you could find a separate android tablet and a Windows laptop at a cheaper price.

The Lenovo Yoga 2 Pro is a high end Windows 8 ultrabook, priced between $929 and $1599 depending on the configuration you are looking for. Its key features include a 13.3 inch display with an impressive 3200 by 1800 pixel resolution, and the fastest Intel processors coupled with SSD storage for an excellent user experience.


The only downside with this device is that the keyboard is not removable like some of the tablet/hybrids in the market. Instead you can use the device in four different modes by flexing it, into the form factor of your choosing. Because of this, the Yoga 2 Pro is bulky and heavy when used as a tablet.

This is not the first time we are seeing the ASUS Transformer Book Trio, which was first announced back at Computex 2013. But Asus did not shy away from showing off their Android / Windows dual-booting hybrid device at the ongoing IFA 2013 in Berlin.

The Transformer Book Trio is basically a mashup between the Asus Transformer Book and the Asus Transformer Pad. It features a 11.6 inch display with a 1080p full HD resolution, up to 64GB of internal storage and it is powered by an Intel Atom Z2760 processor clocked at 1.6GHz with 2GB of RAM. Unfortunately it doesn't look like Windows 8 can be used in tablet mode, but you will be getting the latest version  of Android 4.2 Jelly Bean (Android 4.2.2) if you prefer the Android experience.


If you are looking for more power, you don't have to switch to a different device. Docking your Transformer Book Trio to its keyboard dock will let you get as much as 1TB of storage, an Intel Core i7 Haswell processor and 4GB of RAM. Asus promises the Transformer Book Trio will give you 13 hours of battery life when you tablet is docked, though you will only get 5 hours when your device is running the full Windows 8 experience despite the Haswell chip. Another interesting aspect of the keyboard dock is its ability to connect to an external display for a near all in one PC experience.

Unfortunately Asus has still not revealed the pricing of the device, though its looking quite an interesting device.

An HP source has revealed an upcoming ultra thin Ultrabook from HP which is known as the Spactre.  This year will probably see this and many other Ultrabooks running Windows 8 enter the market this year with the Windows team finally having a rival to the MacBook Air. Check it out in the teaser video which follows.




The HP Spectre features a dual LCD design and looks to take on a world dominated by touchscreens.

Ultrabooks like the UX21 will finally bring a MacBook Air competitive design to the Windows platform. The Asus Facebook page points towards an event in New York on October 11 and an Asus website which says "Good Things come to those who wait" with a picture and reference to an Ultrabook, along with a counter counting down towards the said date.
