Asus’ Transformer tablet-cum-laptop devices tend to cost closer to the five hundred pound mark, so snapping one up for £349 with full Windows 8 is a bit of a bobby dazzler. Factor in the bundled copy of Office, plus the excellent battery life, and you can...

Most affordable Windows 8 device we've seen, better screen brightness and viewing angles than most Chromebooks, full Windows 8.1 & MS Office (Home & Student) for the price, great battery life, the death knell for Windows RT
Needs a better trackpad, on-board power isn't going to blow you away, plasticky build, so slow to charge up, keyboard is squeezed, auto colour and brightness adjustment a bit annoying, not Full HD or greater
We're really impressed with the Asus Transformer Book T100. Its 10.1-inch scale works well as either a tablet or a laptop, even if the keyboard does feel a little squeezed up on initial use. It's something that we got over, though, and given how res...
IPS panel with strong contrast, Works silently, LTE modem, Very long battery life
No USB 3.0, Expensive
The integrated LTE modem offers the user Internet on-the-go, but the Transformer is too expensive compared to the competition. Sadly Asus sacrifices the USB 3.0 port in the dock.The good battery life and strong IPS panel are great traits. However, the scr...
T100:, Cheap, New processor for better multitasking, Small and lightweight, Great battery life, T200:, Similar processor to new T100 (good performance), More ports and expansion bay, More comfortable keyboard and touchpad, Rearfacing camera
With the T100, Asus has shown that they can produce a cheap yet well built device yet again; an ode to their success with the Eee PC. The tablet itself feels a bit flimsy and cheap with the smooth plastic back, and the keyboard has the mediocre quality yo...
Abstract: The variety of 10- and 11-inch tablets and notebooks on the market deliver an even wider range of performance, weight, and price among the available devices. On one end, we have the Surface Pro 2 and Lenovo Yoga...
Well made, Highquality keyboard, Good battery life, Affordable price
Cramped keyboard, 10.1inch screen seems small in notebook mode, Few ports, no Ethernet, Minimal internal storage
The Asus Transformer Book T100 will present many people with the sort of dilemma they may have faced when considering a netbook a few years ago. It functions as a standard Windows computer, running applications and accessing the cloud, and has a decent ke...
Great battery life, USB 3.0 hub on the keyboard, Solid performance of the Intel Bay Trail processor, Affordable price
Insufficient display resolution, Plastic body and keyboard, No rearfacing camera, Unpolished keyboard touchpad
There may be a large number of convertible devices, instigated by Windows 8 and Windows 8.1, but The Transformer Book T100 sets itself apart with solid design, reasonable performance, and a low price. Furthermore, it is almost certain we will be seeing mo...
